Browse Forums Outdoor Living 1 Mar 28, 2011 1:20 pm Hi all, I'm new to this forum and we currently have a small outside entertainment area (approx 4m x 4m) which is paved but its on a slope. We also have a pergola but to be honest it is pretty shabby, so we are wanting to upgrade the area with decking (just over the paving) and a new pergola. We are looking at extending the size (so maybe 6m x 6m to give more space for an outdoor setting), and was wondering if anyone who has had something similar done give me an approximate price that something like this would cost? I don't know if we would be looking around $5K, $10K or $15K? Thanks for any feedback And if anyone is from SA and has recommendations on companies to use for this, it would be much appreciated. Thanks, Catriona Re: Decking and pergola costs 2Mar 28, 2011 1:36 pm Hi Catriona, just before Christmas my partner and i completed a reasonable sized decking area (7m x 6m) A lot depends on what kind of decking planks you are planning to use (pine, Kapur etc) pine being the cheapest. To supply all parts, i believe it came to around $2.5-3k What side of Adelaide are you on? im down south, and highly recommend a supply mob down this way, they're cheap, friendly, will give you all the instructions you need to do it yourself (even offered to come round and show me for free!) and if you're hesitant to do this yourself they can put you in touch with some gents who will do the lot for you, but you will save a BUNDLE if you do the work yourself. As for Pergola's this mob do them as well, but we are saving towards it at the moment, so cant help you with pricing. Hope this in someway helps! if you'd like the contact number of the company i dealt with feel free to pm Building Modified Boston Mk11 with Fairmont Homes Seaford Meadows Contracts signed Sept '09 Slab Poured 8/2/10 Frame Started 15/3/10 ----Frame Finished 22/3/10 Brickwork started 23/3/10 ----FINISHED 25/3/10!
