Quote for decking job

Posted by Matthew Kimberley, on
My wife and I are looking at paying someone to build an area of decking in my garden but I'd like to get an idea of the cost. I think the area of it would be 16-20m2 and we expect it to be decent quality and sturdy. Before I ask tradespeople to buy leads for the work I'd like to get a few quote ideas.

For a basic softwood decking built on a treated 2x4 frame you could expect to pay £90-120m2 hardwood decking would depend entirely on the type of hardwood Balau being the most cost effective hardwood decking (lovely grain and rich colour) upto Ipe hardwood which is the Rolls Royce of hardewood but the price does reflect this! and several types inbetween hope this helps Pete
