Tariff Busters: How You Can Have the Dream Home With the Dream Budget

Jul 9, 2025

In today’s housing market, costs can quickly increase.  From materials and labor to tariffs and unexpected delays but building or upgrading your dream home doesn’t have to come with a nightmare price tag. At Wayne Craft, we specialize in delivering high-quality home improvement solutions that maximize value, without cutting corners. Our approach to these new tariffs is designed to help you stay on budget, while achieving the style, comfort, and durability that you deserve.

Smart Solutions Without the Shock

At Wayne Craft, smart, cost-effective solutions have always been the foundation of how we operate, dating all the way back to 1943. Thanks to our long-standing partnerships with domestic suppliers and our in-house manufacturing capabilities, we consistently deliver high-quality results without unnecessary markups. Whether it’s screen rooms, awnings, or patio enclosures, our team helps homeowners improve their space without unexpected price hikes.  Wayne Craft provides resourceful and dependable craftsmanship that fits your budget and boosts your home’s appeal.

Navigating Tariffs in a Tough Economy

Recent increases in tariffs on imported steel and aluminum, some as high as 25%, have pushed material costs up across the construction industry. Combined with lingering supply chain issues and rising labor expenses, home improvement costs have climbed nearly 10% in the past year, according to the National Association of Home Builders (NAHB).

At Wayne Craft, however, we’ve long relied on trusted U.S.-based manufacturers and regional suppliers. These established relationships have shielded us from global disruptions, allowing us to maintain stable pricing, dependable sourcing, and high-quality craftsmanship without passing steep costs onto our customers.
