My husband and I have recently bought a house that we won’t move into for another 6 months (so we can’t get any official quotes on deck costs yet!) We’re wanting to build a raised deck that is approximately 28sqm (7m x 3m) with a simple roof/cover. We have budgeted $10,000, however we have no idea if that’s too much or nowhere near enough! We’re in the Western Sydney, NSW, region. Thanks!! Re: How much did your deck cost? (Deck budget advice needed! 2Jan 28, 2019 3:21 pm Alot of variables to consider in your request. How high is it being built off the ground?. Do you need approval? What do you want it made out of? What do you want it to be roofed with?

Ours measures 6.7m x 4.025m so about 27sqm and we were quoted $13,200. This also included removing and taking away old brick paving. This is the end result. We also had an insulated roof installed which was a bit exxy but it keeps it cooler in the summer months. Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Re: How much did your deck cost? (Deck budget advice needed! 5Dec 08, 2020 8:11 pm As above there are so many factors. It will depend on materials and height off the ground. Does the height off the ground require a building permit? Usually a roof structure will require a permit. My on ground deck approx 28 square metres 7x4 was about 13500- I also chose to have it built with a composite. I did get quotes to use Merbau for about 10K. 7 12134 Coming back to your old stomping grounds, huh? Renovations on a budget can be quite the journey. It's like giving your house a new lease on life.
