Cost of DIY Deck?

Question:I would like to build an 8x16 deck but I would like to know the cost to do it myself.

Any thoughts?

Answers:
It depends totally on the lumber or man made material you choose to use.

There are dozens of choices, thus dozens of prices.

A basic pressure treated deck runs about $8-$10 a square ft., for material.

Some ideas for you on www.hgtv.com then check with your building company for prices of what you need. Building companies such as Menard's, Home Depot, etc... do have put together decks with all the materials except 1) tools and 2) the worker.
