Deck Building and Installation Cost Guide

‍Deck Size: Larger decks require more materials and labor, so size is a major cost driver. A multi-level or a raised deck will cost more than a small, simple platform. Complexity and layout: Multiple levels, curved layouts, built-in seating, jacuzzi, or railing systems increase both material and installation costs. Typically add $1,500–$6,000. Site Conditions: The condition and layout of your property can impact pricing. Building on a slope, limited access for builders, or the need to remove and disopose an old deck can add prep work and cost. Proper foundation and support (piers, footings, framing) for a sound deck are the essential parts of the cost. Materials: The decking material might significantly affect cost. Pressure-treated wood and cedar are typically in the budget-friendly cost range. Composites decking (like Trex or TimberTech) adds 25–40% to material cost but lowers long-term maintenance.Features & Additions: Staircases, built-in lighting, pergolas, waterproofing will add to the project cost.

Average Cost of Deck Installation in Victoria

The cost of deck installation in Victoria typically ranges from $45 to $75 per square foot, depending on the materials, layout, and site conditions. A standard new deck build usually falls between $15,000 and $28,000, while redecking projects range from $8,500 to $18,000, depending on whether the existing frame can be kept and reused. At Renova Contractors, we provide clear, line-by-line estimates so you know exactly what’s included.

Deck Building and Installation Cost Guide

We handle everything - design, permitting, material procurnment at the best available prices, deliveries, deck building/refinishing/decking installation/handrail installation and more. While permitting is not always required, we make sure that the deck we build adds resale value to your house, lasts long and is aesthetically appealing.

Initial Consultation & Quote:

We start with a free on-site consultation. A deck specialist meets you (or via virtual consult) to discuss your ideas, measure your space, and answer questions. We’ll provide a detailed, transparent estimate tailored to your design and budget.

Custom Design & Planning:

Our team creates a custom deck design (including any permits or engineering plans). We’ll help you choose materials (e.g. cedar vs. composite) and finalize the layout. Nothing moves forward until you’re happy with the design.

Permits & Preparation:

We handle all building permits with the City of Victoria on your behalf. Once approved, we prepare the site – demoing any old deck, leveling ground, and setting solid foundations. All up to code.

Construction

If the job involved backsplash or drywall demolition, faucet removal we will put everything back together so you don’t need to search for other contractors

Finishing Touches & Walkthrough

We install final details like railings, stairs, and lighting, then thoroughly clean up. Finally, we do a walkthrough with you to inspect every detail and ensure you’re thrilled with the result. We’ll also share maintenance tips (and our warranty info) so you can enjoy your deck worry-free for decades to come

FAQ

How much does it cost to build a new deck in Victoria?

The cost of a deck in Victoria varies based on size, materials, and design. On average, a typical 200sq.ft. deck (about the size of a 10’x20’ deck) might range from $8,000 to $14,000, and larger or high-end custom decks (with stairs or premium materials) can run $15,000–$30,000 or more

How long does a deck installation take?

Most standard deck projects are completed in about 3–6 weeks, including design and permitting. Simpler decks can be done in as little as 1–2 weeks of construction time, while more complex, multi-level/story decks or those requiring extensive site work might take up to 4 weeks. Factors like weather and permit approval times, inspections and special-order materials can affect the timeline, but we will give you a clear schedule and keep you updated at every stage.

Do I need a permit to build a deck on my Victoria property?

In Victoria, a building permit is required for most decks that are attached to the house or above 18 inches in height. Very low or free-standing decks under 18″ high may not need a permit, but it depends on the exact situation and local regulations. Renova Contractors will handle all necessary permits and inspections for your deck project, ensuring everything is up to code.

What decking material is best for Victoria’s weather?

Victoria’s wet, sometimes chilly climate means you’ll want materials that can endure moisture. Composite decking (Trex, Timbertech) is a popular choice – it’s moisture- and mildew-resistant and very low maintenance (plus it often comes with 25+ year warranties). Cedar wood is another favorite in the Pacific Northwest for its natural resistance to rot and insects and its classic look, though it requires periodic sealing/refinishing to stay in top shape

Where to select and buy decking in Victoria?

There isn’t one “best” store. Most suppliers carry very similar lines. Same brand, same SKU, same quality. Prices change by promo, stock, and delivery fees. So it pays to compare. We also pass along our contractor pricing. That can be up to 20% off retail. Use it. It adds up fast on cabinets, hardware, and tops. ‍Local suppliers to check -Slegg Building Materials -LumberWorld -RONA (Uptown, Langford)Home Depot (Victoria, Langford) -Windsor Plywood Tip: send us the product link or SKU from any store. We’ll price it through our accounts and tell you which option is cheapest after delivery and taxes

Deck types and configurations in Victoria, BC — what to know

Victoria yards vary a lot. Flat lots in town. Slopes in Rockland and parts of Saanich. Pick a deck type that fits the grade, views, and budget.

Ground-level (platform) decks

Sit close to grade. Often under 450 mm high (about 18"). Simple and budget friendly. No tall posts.
They still need drainage. Gravel under the frame helps. Leave gaps at edges so water can escape.
Permits are case by case. Lower decks may proceed without one, but always check with the City of Victoria before you start.

Raised (attached) decks

Built off the main floor and tied to the house with a ledger. Great for sun and views. More structure.
Expect permits if it’s higher than about 600 mm (24").
Guards are required once the drop exceeds 600 mm. Minimum guard height is 1070 mm (42") on decks, and 900 mm on stairs.
Flashing at the ledger is critical so water stays out of the wall.

Multi-level decks

Good on sloped sites. Shorter runs of structure on each tier. Nice zones for dining, lounging, or a hot tub pad.
More framing. More guards. Usually permitted like any raised deck. Plan your stairs and landings early so clearances work.

Victoria climate and code notes

Wet winters. Salt air near the water. Wood stays damp longer than you think.
Vent the frame. Space boards per the manufacturer. Keep plants and soil off the rim.
Use hot-dip galvanized or stainless hardware. ACQ-rated screws.
Decks in seismic zone need proper connections. Ledgers are bolted, not nailed. Add lateral ties where required.
If you’re near a steep drop or sensitive area, the City may ask for engineered plans.

Decking materials

Wood

Pressure-treated (PT). Cheapest. Works fine if you keep it sealed and clean. Can cup or check in damp shade.
Cedar. Classic look and cooler underfoot. Needs staining or oil every 2–3 years. Expect board swaps over time.
Tropical hardwoods. Very durable. Expensive. Pre-drill and use stainless fasteners. Let it silver or oil it.

Composite and PVC

Low maintenance. No staining. Good traction options for wet days.
Costs more up front than cedar.
Follow joist spacing rules. Many brands want 12" o.c. for picture frames or diagonals.
Rinse seasonally to keep algae off.

Framing and structure

PT framing. 2×8 or 2×10 joists are common. 16" o.c. spacing, or 12" o.c. for some composites.
6×6 posts for taller decks. Brace if the deck is high or exposed to wind.
Ledger bolted to solid structure with proper flashing above.
Joist tape on tops of joists and beams adds years in this climate.
Footings go below frost. Around Victoria that’s roughly 300 mm to 450 mm deep, but size and depth depend on load and soil.
Keep fasteners consistent with the hangers to avoid corrosion.

Railings

Guards at drops over 600 mm. Top of guard at least 1070 mm on the deck.
Wood rails. Least expensive. Need regular sealing.
Aluminum rails. Clean look and little upkeep. Popular black pickets.
Composite/PVC rails. Match composite decks. Low care.
Glass or cable. Best for views. Glass blocks wind but needs cleaning. Cable needs occasional tightening.

Maintenance and lifespan

Water is the enemy. Keep debris out of gaps. Trim plants back.

PT: clean and seal. 10–15 years to major repairs if cared for.
Cedar: clean and refinish on a schedule. 15–20 years with upkeep.
Hardwoods: long life. Oil for colour or let them grey.
Composite/PVC: 25–30+ years. Wash a few times a year.
Check bolts, brackets, and rails every spring. Tighten what’s loose. Swap any split boards.

Permits and disposal

Building permits often required for decks tied to the house or higher than ~600 mm. The City of Victoria confirms scope and setbacks.
Electrical permits go through Technical Safety BC if you add lighting or outlets.
Follow CRD rules for disposal. Hartland for concrete and large loads.

Quick planning checklist

Rough sketch with size, height, and stair location.
Pick material and rail type.
Confirm permits with the City.
Set footings, ledger flashing, and joist tape.
Frame square. Add blocking for picture-frame borders and stairs.
Install decking with proper gaps.
Set rails and gates. Final sweep and wash.

If you share your size, height off grade, and one photo of the yard, I can suggest footing count, joist sizing, and a material list that fits Victoria’s weather.
