Disclaimer The accuracy of reported data relies strictly upon adequate survey participation. Without complete data records, Hanley Wood and VCHR are unable to accurately report on market data. When all respondents do not supply complete records, including regional percentages for all surveyed categories, those data might also not be reported accurately. In many cases, incomplete data records mean we will not be able to report. To size the overall market, the Hanley Wood team solicited participation from all WDMA members appropriate for this report. The team then solicited responses from manufacturers outside the WDMA membership but within the Hanley Wood network. Due to lack of participation by manufacturers on certain portions of the survey, the research team was required to formulate an objective process for adjusting responses (existing data) to accurately reflect the market. It is important to note that these adjustments can only be based on data provided to our research team by manufacturers, so accuracy originates from participation in the survey. When manufacturers supply little to no data, no reporting of the data is possible with accuracy. Market estimates in the U.S. Industry Statistical Review and Forecast are driven not only by statistics published by the Census Bureau and other construction statistics organizations but by Hanley Wood housing market data. Please note that totals may not always add due to rounding.
