Market Demand Data

Product Usage Data Reports

Assess Market Demand Data for Home Building Products

Building product manufacturers need a clear understanding of the size of their markets in order to spot trends and opportunities, assess market share and their competitors', and evaluate the viability of new business investments. Since the 1970s, Home Innovation Research Labs has been at the forefront of market sizing research and compiling product usage statistics for construction products.

But while future market change can never be predicted with full accuracy, savvy marketers and product managers look for clues that help them to detect changes and fluctuations in demand. Home Innovation Research Labs produces a series of market demand reports precisely for this purpose — the Annual Builder and Consumer Practices Surveys. These reports measure changes in market size, market share, and usage patterns for specific building materials. 

At the core of our services is a deep understanding of industry segments, technologies, and practices, and a robust product usage modeling process honed over decades.

Home Building Product Market Demand Reports

Each year, our Builder Practices Survey gathers data from approximately 1,500 home builders across the United States to produce data reports on 40 different product categories. These reports are the most comprehensive sources of purchase quantities of building products and materials for new homes available, providing geographic detail down to the metro area and county levels. Reports are delivered in spreadsheet, database, and Tableau format for a wide variety of integration options.  

Residential Remodeling Product Usage Reports

The Home Innovation Annual Consumer Practices Survey reaches more than 110,000 U.S. and Canadian households to produceapproximately 40 separate reports on products and materials used for residential remodeling. Information on purchaser, installer, and place of purchase are all provided in metro area and county-level detail.
