Is $30,500 to build a new entry-level Trex Enhance deck a fair price?

Project Details

I'm trying to get an idea of deck pricing and if it's even an option. I'm having some sticker shock from the first quote I received and am trying to see if I should keep searching or give up now. My project sounds similar to another user's, but theirs was $10k cheaper, so I might keep looking.

Quote Details

This quote is for a new build deck using entry-level Trex Enhance composite material. - Deck Type: New build- Material: Entry-level Trex Enhance composite- Size: Approximately 200-250 square feet- Features: Includes stairs (half a story off the ground), basic rectangle shape, basic railings, no additional features or "bells and whistles"

Thank you for your feedback!
