Is $32,000 to rebuild a 16x20 elevated wood deck a fair price?

Project Details

I have a 16x20 deck overlooking the water that sits about 8-10 ft up. It is older wood and starting to rot. I am considering doing parts of the work myself, like the railings, to save money. I am also debating between wood and composite for the long term.

Quote Details

Full rebuild of an existing elevated deck including: - Demolition and removal of old decking materials - Installation of new pressure-treated wood framing and boards - Installation of new railing system - Work performed at 8-10 ft elevation with water-facing access
