Malcolm Fleming: Certified Builders CEO on the new EBOSS report showing the recovery of the construction pipeline

There's a cautiously optimistic outlook on the construction sector.

The EBOSS 2026 Builder and Architect Sentiment report —based on a survey of thousands of builders, architects, and designers— shows the sector pipeline is slowly filling.

Data finds there's around seven months forward work, with project starts jumping from -21 to +8.

Certified Builders Chief Executive Malcolm Fleming told Mike Hosking it paints a picture of the economy turning.

He says builders on the ground are seeing a slight uptick in their positivity and in their inquiries in the future.
