Reply to comment by burritoace in Want to extend a deck. Any idea about cost if anyone has done it recently? by cjoshi112385

Why so large range? Can I go somewhere and figure out exact material cost? I bet what I current have is most basic trex installed by the builder. I feel there is no enough transparency in this business. Although what do I know?

You are more than welcome to design the deck and price/procure the materials (and even build it). It's not rocket science but it does take time and effort, and experience helps. Figure out how much wood you need and call up a lumber yard, they'll happily give you a price on it.
