Lock in Your Construction Project Now

You may not be thinking of construction projects in the middle of Winter, but the Prairie Construction team thinks now is the perfect time to start planning!

Rising costs for materials are unavoidable, but confirming a project now can help minimize the impact. Weather-related natural disasters, supply issues and the economy only drive up demand for materials, so short supplies and increased prices impact projects.

Weather in the Midwest dictates the timing for many projects as well. Extreme cold, snow, and ice make the Winter months less than ideal for many projects, but an ideal time to prepare.

The Prairie Construction team encourages planning now to ensure the best prices and timing for 2025 projects.
