I think some of that is going away though as the industry standardizes...
They also have to deal a lot more with things like termite proofing than we do.

But our higher labor costs go through the material supply chain and effect the on-site construction labor... so I think that labor may be the biggest factor.

Contractor specific yards can be really efficient.
