That matches what I am seeing from my suppliers of aluminum building products. The lowest increase has been 8%. As long as there us enough work coming in, I will continue to absorb the loss. A good handful of people depend on selling my product alongside theirs. I believe that if I help them by keeping my price as close to the same as it currently is, they will be able to have a leg up on everyone who is sending it straight to the customer. It will mean a little more work, but a job or two a month should maintain the status quo. Bonus to love what you do.
I really appreciate everyone who came along to help me grasp this.
