Zero Dependencies·Works OfflinePressure-treated: ~$35-55/m², Cedar/Redwood: ~$70-110/m², Composite: ~$110-165/m², PVC: ~$165-250/m². Includes materials and labor; prices vary significantly by region.
Pressure-treated has lowest upfront cost but requires annual maintenance. Composite costs more initially but is nearly maintenance-free, offering better long-term value. Cedar is a balanced choice.
Most jurisdictions require permits for decks above certain heights (usually 2ft/0.6m) or areas. Check with your local building department before starting.
