  • Wood Decking cost estimates may require an onsite inspection. Usually these estimates will be "free". You should expect any estimate to be presented with an in-depth sales pitch/presentation.
  • Low to High labor cost range differences are in part due to variations in work load, job location and seasonal wage rates.
