Bro, there is no lack of supply and high surge of prices of many construction materials. Im not sure where did you get this info. But on our experience in building houses this quarter, only the cement had increased by 5-10 pesos. Others even decreased like metal and fiber cement boards.
Now on DIYs. There is no problem of doing that, if you are that skilled. It might be that you will be damaging the material which cost more, than paying a 350-peso skilled worker on 8hrs work. At 350, we are feeding a family of a hard-earning laborer. Ato pani daginuton?
