Is $10,000 to install 14-foot posts on footings and remove angled support for a deck a fair price?
Project Details
My wild Hemlock trees are now gone, uncovering a nice vista. I want to refresh my balcony deck, ensuring it is safe and sound, and remove all top wood and rails to replace them with TimberTech Vintage PVC. I am trying to decide whether to replace the existing angled supports with long posts, as two out of three contractors recommended 14-foot posts instead of the 20-year-old angled support system. This has become my toughest decision for this small project.
