I realise there isn't a forum called "Will this quote be fair?".....however

I want to get my decking replaced as it's rotten. The area is about 13m square but isn't a regular shape there are a few returns to go around.

What do you think I will be looking at to take the old decking material away plus supply and fit the new stuff. Will be standard materials. I estimate it's 2 days work.

I will get 3 quotes from the most reputable artisans of course!

thanks

about £800 inc a decent timber deck (about 350) . Is it just the boards replacing . no joists or rails .

Joists have disintegrated too so need whole new frame.

Start from scratch do the posts too . Glad you think its 2 days . about £700/730 timber and bolts and £2000ish total . 2 men & 2 very long days . (more like 3+)

Quotes have ranged so far from £500 to £1700.

I will update this thread later for posterity....
