The prices of many construction materials in the United Kingdom kept increasing in 2024, but more moderately than in previous years. There were also several building materials whose prices fell that year. One of the most extreme examples was the price of flexible plastic pipes and fittings, which rose by over 14 percent that year. The price of a couple steel products fell by over 10 percent that year. In late 2024, copper-based products were among the building materials with the highest price increases in the U.S.
