Technology and Sustainability Drive Construction Industry Trends in 2025

Green Building has become a priority in residential construction over the last 5 years. Contractors are adopting new practices and relying on environmental sustainability as a motivator when purchasing materials for their projects. In accordance with improving sustainability, the industry’s use of AI has become more popular in 2025. Although many contractors are in the early stages of integrating AI technology into their progress tracking onsite, we are seeing a plethora of new opportunities. These AI-powered tools are also able to identify potential problems and delays in the company's workflow. Similarly, AI can assess potential safety hazards, minimizing the number of accidents. Lastly, in some cases, AI tools can even be used for labor, as some companies have purchased AI-powered robots to lay bricks, increasing productivity.
