How Material Shortages Are Shaping Renovations in 2026

In Sacramento, California, contractors are warning homeowners to expect delays on projects this year. Cabinets, flooring, and specialty fixtures are taking longer to arrive, even for simple jobs.

This is not due to laziness or poor planning. Supply chains are stretched, shipping times are longer, and some materials are in higher demand than ever before. Homeowners who do not plan ahead are facing unexpected timelines and costs.

The renovation industry is adapting. Contractors are ordering materials earlier, prioritizing flexibility, and keeping clients informed every step of the way.

Homeowners who stay patient and plan ahead are avoiding stress while others learn the hard way
