DFW deck cost tools
The main deck cost calculator covers the full build — size, material, height, railing, stairs, features, demolition, permit — in one pass. These three tools unbundle the pieces that come up most often as standalone questions in DFW. Same pricing model, same range output, no email required.
Railing cost calculator
Linear feet × material gives you an installed range for wood, aluminum, glass, and cable railing.
Railing only — already have a deck, just replacing the railing.
Open toolDeck demolition cost
Tear-down and haul-away cost for an existing wood deck, with disposal options and pier-removal extras.
Removal only — usually a separate line from the new build.
Open toolComposite vs wood — 10-year total
Side-by-side build cost + 10 years of maintenance for any two deck materials. The cheap upfront option isn't always the cheaper 10-year option in Texas heat.
Decision support — pressure-treated vs composite is the common one.
