How Much Does a Deck Cost?
Decks are priced per square foot installed (material + labor). Typical US installed ranges:
| Decking material | Per sq ft (installed) |
|---|---|
| Pressure-treated wood | $15 – $25 |
| Cedar | $20 – $40 |
| Redwood | $30 – $50 |
| Composite | $30 – $60 |
Wood vs Composite
Pressure-treated wood is the cheapest up front but needs regular sealing. Composite costs more initially but is low-maintenance and lasts longer, so it can be cheaper over the deck's life. Height, railings, stairs and footings also add to the cost.
