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.
Resale value
A wood deck recoups about 50–83% of its cost at resale — more than a composite deck — according to the annual Remodeling Cost vs. Value report.
