What’s different about Aurora

Aurora shares the Denver metro's busy labor market and hail exposure, with permitting and pricing close to the regional norm.

  • Severe-storm exposure favors impact-resistant materials.
  • Footings have to reach below the frost line, so deeper excavation adds cost.

How the cost is built

Deck cost depends on size, decking material (pressure-treated pine is cheapest; composite and PVC are mid-range; tropical hardwood is premium), and structural extras like railings, stairs, and elevated footings. Permits and ledger flashing add cost on attached decks.
