OK, so 2014 wasn’t as fantastic a year as most hoped. That doesn’t mean it was a bad year. In fact, the industry overall was up a few percentage points over 2013 and considering how robust that year was it means 2014 ended up being pretty good.
The good news is that 2015 is projected to be more like 2013—maybe even better. Granted there are a great deal of unknowns, just like in 2014 how the harsh winter pretty much halted all business on the residential and commercial fronts for the first quarter and then the midterm elections caused the economy to go into roller coaster mode.
