How the calculator gets its numbers
The square-foot ranges come from the same typical prices listed on our deck costs page: pressure-treated, cedar, composite and PVC decks built on new footings with standard framing. Height multiplies the framing side of the cost, because tall decks need bigger posts, bracing and more concrete.
Railing is estimated along the two sides and the front of the deck, the way most attached decks are laid out, and priced per linear foot for the style you pick. Each stair run uses our typical range for a straight run with a landing at grade.
What it cannot see: removal of an old deck, a rotted house rim joist, a roof or screen porch on top, built-ins, lighting, or a difficult backyard. Those are why the real number comes from a site visit.
