We had enough lead time but there was some problem in the supply chain. I still wish we could have gotten our first choice so that was a bummer.
I don’t have much to add but wanted to emphasize what Snuggle Bugles said. I have friends doing construction and renovating and there are shortages on so many raw materials. My interior decorator said certain random odd things are backed up for months. And at least around here, there just aren’t enough workers to get things done. Definitely plan for all of that. I’d think your contractor could warn you about basic building material shortages but you should check into the tiles, paints/wallpapers, and other specifics you might want ahead of time.
