Weather Conditions
Weather is one of the most unpredictable factors in construction. Rain, snow, extreme heat, or cold can halt outdoor work, delay material deliveries, or make job site unsafe.
Material Shortages
Delays in material delivery, whether due to global shortages, shipping issues, or supply chain disruptions, are increasingly common. Key materials like lumbar, steel, or concrete may be delayed, halting progress.
Design Changes
Changes to the design or scope of work can result in additional time and resources. Whether it's client - requested changes or unforeseen complications, these modifications can disrupt the schedule.
Permitting & Inspections
Construction projects require permits and inspections at various stages, and delays in obtaining these can push back timelines. Local government backlogs or inspector availability can be a source of delay.
Labor Shortages
The construction industry often faces shortages of skilled labor, leading to project delays. Worker absenteeism, strikes, or a lack of qualified workers can all stall progress.
