How much does a deck cost in Perth in 2026?

The short answer.

Most Perth decks land between $20,000 and $45,000 all-in, inc. GST. Merbau hardwood sits at the lower end — composite typically runs higher. Per square metre: Merbau is around $440–$540, Evalast composite $540–$660, premium boards (Trex, Pioneer) $640–$760.

All of that includes the subframe, delivery, project management and bin hire. Balustrades, stairs, pergolas and council permits aren't in those numbers — they're scoped separately because the range is too wide to bundle honestly.

01

How much does an Endure Deck cost?

Projects start from $20K. Most sit between $20K and $45K. Complex outdoor transformations can reach $150K and beyond.

02

How do we get started?

After an initial call and site visit, we prepare a First Pass Proposal — concept plan, preliminary budget range, and scope overview. Charged at $750–$1,500 depending on project size, fully credited back if you build with us.

03

Do you just build decks?

Decks are our bread and butter, but we offer full project design and build. We can project manage complete outdoor transformations — most of our projects include multiple elements, not just a deck.

Price factors

What pushes the price up

Height & elevation

Every 300mm of deck height adds bracing, blocking, and labour. An elevated deck over 600mm costs noticeably more than a ground-hugging slab replacement.

Site access

Tight side passages, steep blocks, or no vehicle access means hand-carrying materials. That adds time and cost.

Balustrades & stairs

Not included in the calculator. Glass balustrades can add $8K–$15K to a project. Timber post-and-rail starts at $2,800.

Subframe upgrade

Coastal or high-moisture sites benefit from aluminium subframes over the standard timber H4. Worth it for beachside suburbs or shaded understorey areas.

Council permits

Most Perth decks under 500mm high don't need a permit. Higher decks or coastal overlays may require a building permit — typically $600–$1,200.

Irregular shapes

L-shapes, curves, and wraparound decks increase cutting waste and labour time. Straight rectangular builds are the most cost-effective footprint.

Not included in the estimates above

  • Balustrades & glass panels
  • Pergola or roof structure
  • Lighting installation
  • Electrical / outdoor power points
  • Landscaping or garden tie-ins
  • Council building permit (if required)
  • Demolition of existing structure
  • Concreting or footings beyond standard piers
