New Deck Construction

Full Deck Replacement

Pool Deck Cost in Austin

Price actual deck surface area, not empty space occupied by a pool. Actual deck area equals the overall deck footprint minus the pool or open area. For a simple deck estimate, deck length × deck width equals approximate deck surface area; for example, 20 ft × 20 ft equals 400 sq ft.

Deck Railing Cost Factors

Railing linear footage, material choice, stair railing and gates can all affect the final scope.

How Stairs Affect Deck Cost

Deck elevation, number of risers, stair width, landings and railing all influence stair complexity.
