Below is a link to a very interesting interview of Brent Coffey, the chief executive of the Timber Industry Federation; and Warwick Quinn, head of Master Builders Federation about the current state of the construction industry in New Zealand due to Christchurch's earthquake, leaky buildings, New Zealands housing shortage and New Zealands shortage of builders.

With timber set to rise 20% on top of the this years current price increases, it's cheaper to get your deck substructure in now than waiting a few months.
In short, dont delay your project or you might miss out or pay through the nose. Enjoy
