Poured Concrete Contractors in the US
Demand smooths out: Because industry performance depends on downstream demand from various construction markets, the recession and negative effects associated with it have hit poured concrete contractors hard. Since 2006, the value of new residential construction has plunged. Non-residential building construction was able to support demand for concreting services through 2008 until a sharp downturn in commercial building activity followed the housing collapse. In 2011, an increase in residential construction is expected to offset ongoing declines in the non-residential construction markets.
