[quote=Anonymous]First of all, that is an insane price for a small deck. If you just want basic pressure treated lumber, you should shop around. (My best guess is $5k-$6k.) In my old house, I put down a bunch of these 16" square pavers and it made a pretty nice patio in the back. A smart person would use sand to level everything but I just tossed them down and they did the job. They are pretty heavy, you'll have to carry them one by one. http://www.homedepot.com/p/Unbranded-16-in-x-16-in-Red-Brickface-Concrete-Step-Stone-72661/100333091 The other big question is if you need any stairs going from the house to the patio. If you do, a handyman could probably build you some pretty cheaply.[/quote]
