Compared to the overall average of ** different major cities in the United States, building materials in San Francisco were more expensive than in Chicago. Opposed this is a city like Detroit, Michigian, where the price index of building materials was slightly below the average. What this overview tries to do, then, is compare the major cities against each other and whether one was relatively more expensive than the other when it comes to construction costs. This is especially visible for installation - such as HVAC. The city of New York reached an index of *** in ********, meaning installation costs here were around ** percent higher than the average cost for the ** cities combined. Cities found in the state of Texas made up the other end of that spectrum: Installation costs in San Antonio, Houston and Dallas were between ** to ** percent lower than the overall average.

Building materials made of steel, copper and other metals had some of the highest price growth rates in the U.S. in the first half of 2025 in comparison to the previous year. The growth rate of the cost of several construction materials was slightly lower than in late 2024. It is important to note, though, that the figures provided are Producer Price Indices, which cover production within the United States, but do not include imports or tariffs. This might matter for lumber, as Canada's wood production is normally large enough that the U.S. can import it from its neighboring country. Construction material prices in the United Kingdom Similarly to these trends in the U.S., at that time the price growth rate of construction materials in the UK were generally lower 2024 than in 2023. Nevertheless, the cost of some construction materials in the UK still rose that year, with several of those items reaching price growth rates of over **** percent. Considering that those materials make up a very big share of the costs incurred for a construction project, those developments may also have affected the average construction output price in the UK. Construction material shortages during the COVID-19 pandemic During the first years of the COVID-19 pandemic, there often were supply problems and material shortages, which created instability in the construction market. According to a survey among construction contractors, the construction materials most affected by shortages in the U.S. during most of 2021 were steel and lumber. This was also a problem on the other side of the Atlantic: The share of building construction companies experiencing shortages in Germany soared between March and June 2021, staying at high levels for over a year. Meanwhile, the shortage of material or equipment was one of the main factors limiting the building activity in France in June 2022.

This table contains monthly figures on the input price index of new dwellings; input price indices building costs to monitor the costs of new dwellings (labour and materials) in the Netherlands.

An input price index is determined on the basis of price changes of the various cost components making up the product - in this case a new dwelling. Changes in the prices of building equipment (tools and machinery), general costs, profit and risk are not included in the input price index. Other cost components, such as energy and transport, are also not taken into account as their influence on the final cost price is relatively modest. Land costs are also not included in the index.

Data available from: January 2018

Status of the figures: The price index figures for wages and the total construction costs are final until 2024. The figures for building materials are final until August 2025.

Changes as of February 27th, 2026: Figures for the month of January 2026 have been added.

Changes as of November 28th, 2025: Due to an improvement in the calculation method, some index figures are revised by a maximum of 0.4 index point. The improvement relates to the aggregation of sub series.

Changes as of November 29th, 2024: Since this publication, a switch has been made to a different rounding strategy, whereby the changes are calculated on unrounded index figures and annual figures are calculated from rounded and published figures. With this switch there is more consistency with other statistics on Statline and statistics from Eurostat. As a result, mutations have changed across the entire series.

When will new figures be published? New figures are published about 30 days after the month under review.

Between 2022 and 2025, the construction price of residential and non-residential buildings in Canada has grown at the same pace. The price of both types of buildings was roughly ***** percent higher in the last quarter of 2025 than in 2024, which is the year when the index base was set at 100. Nevertheless, that only considers the cost of buildings in 15 selected metropolitan areas in Canada. Toronto was by far the metropolitan region with the highest construction costs in Canada.

What determines construction costs? The growth rate of the construction price of different types of buildings tends to follow similar trends to some extent. For example, price growth rates in Canada for most types of buildings were more moderate in 2024 than in previous years. However, those figures show a lot of disparity, with the cost of building a high rise apartment building growing much faster than that of other types of buildings. This might be because the construction costs depend on elements such as the location, materials, and complexity of the building, which tend to be quite different for each type of building.

Lumber building materials in Canada In 2024, Canada was the world’s second-largest exporter of wood building materials such as veneer sheets, parquet flooring, particleboard, laminated wood, and builders’ joinery and carpentry. Forestry, logging, and processing wood into ready-to-use materials are important industries in the Canadian economy. High price growth rates of building materials impact negatively the construction industry as their activities become more expensive. However, the forestry and logging industry benefited from the cost of lumber rising in 2020 and 2021. In the past years, the price of lumber, however, has fallen again.

Changes as of February 29, 2024 The index number series in this table use 2015 as the reference year (2015=100). To ensure that the results of the index series are more in line with current events, a so-called base shift is implemented once every five years. Due to the implementation of FRIBS (Framework Regulation Integrating Business Statistics) in 2021, this time the base shift is postponed by one year to 2021=100. The subsequent base shift will return to a regular year, namely 2025=100. Upon the publication of the reporting period of January 2024, such a base shift will occur, and the reference year will be switched to 2021 (2021=100). The index series with the reference 2021=100 will be published in new StatLine tables. This table will be discontinued from that moment and will no longer be updated. However, it will remain available in the archive. The new tables for 2021=100 will commence with the reporting month of January 2018.
