Costs directly associated with your deck

________________________________________________________________________________________________
There is so much more to deck building than most people think. A deck is a combination of rough framing and fine trim work (a well build one anyway). Prices should always include everything A-Z… permits, demo, footings, insurance, etc.
The lumber materials fluctuate constantly so the numbers below might be +/- $2 SF. Additional materials that cost money and other costs that must be consider are: the footings (excavation, concrete, forms, etc). The fasteners to join. The materials of the deck can easily run over $1000 by the time it is all said and done plus expertise, labor, operating cost, and a profit. Prices also include the workmanship involved with the deck. A Contractor who takes pride of his/her work will add copper flashing behind and over the ledger, 12" diameter x 42" deep piers, posts, lateral bracing, post sleeves, caps, etc.
Other factors to consider are: How high the deck is from the ground, selecting materials and dropping them off. Gas or diesel expenses, as well as time.Town to town codes which may vary directly impact the price. Geographical location of the property.
