Enter your deck's size and board dimensions to get total area, decking boards needed, and estimated material cost.
Estimate only — includes 10% waste; excludes framing, footings, and fasteners.
We divide deck area by the effective coverage of one board (its face width plus the gap) to find total linear feet of decking, add 10% waste, then divide by your board length to get a board count. Cost multiplies boards by your price per board.
It depends on your deck's area and the width of your chosen board. Enter your dimensions above and we'll calculate the count, including a waste allowance for cuts.
No — this covers decking boards only. Framing lumber, footings, and hardware should be estimated separately based on your joist spacing and framing plan.
