We have been in the process of building a new house and the quote we had for our lumber had run out so we had it re-quoted yesterday and in the past few months it's gone up $11.000.00. This is kinda blowing my budget and the cushion we had built in.

I work with lumber on a regular basis, I haven't seen that increase in my area. I'm not knocking on the contractor, but I would guess that they may have misquoted you the first go around, saw the error and made sure not to miss it the second time. I could be wrong on this, but I have not personally seen the increase on my end

This was the story a fence contractor gave my old man when the quoted price went up $1500, in a couple month span. I do not have a clue if it is true. Personally it sounds a little fishy.
