There's no single price — here's why

"How much is a deck?" is a bit like "how much is a car?" — it depends. A deck's cost comes down to a handful of things, and a proper on-site quote will always beat a number off the internet. Here's what moves the figure.

What drives the cost

  • Size — decks are usually priced per square metre, so area is the biggest single factor.
  • Material — hardwoods like Jarrah and Merbau, and composite boards, all sit at different price points.
  • Height and sub-frame — a low ground-level deck is simpler than an elevated deck needing posts, bearers and balustrades.
  • Ground and access — sloping or rocky ground, and tight access, add labour.
  • Extras — steps, balustrades, privacy screening and finishing all add to the scope.
