Do material shortages hold up extensions?

Question

If there are hold ups with materials, can the order of fitting out an extension be changed, such as installing windows, floors etc? Are builders generally used to being flexible or does everything grind to a halt?

Without bricks and blocks windows cannot be installed currently stock availability is slowing down construction

The answer to that is not really it can be done in other ways but it all depends on what material's they are waiting on !

Michael · Answer

Certain things can be fitted flexibly would depend on which specific part of the extension.

David · Answer

Due to materials sometime having along lead in time we try and place order for them as soon as poss to stop things not moving ahead, When they do not turn up we find ways around this like, Put ploy frames in till windows turn up but this does come down to what materials are needed. But on a hole it does not stop us being flexible to get the work done on time.
