Deck Builder Website Cost 2026
Reading about it is step zero. Check whether your service area is still open: about a minute of questions, then you pick a time. See what we do for deck building & refinishing companies.
TL;DR: Decks have dual revenue streams: high-ticket new builds ($10k to $50k) AND recurring refinishing ($500 to $2,000 every 2 to 3 years). Your website needs both funnels, separate landing pages with separate value props. A real deck builder website costs $2,500 to $7,000 to build plus $80 to $300/month ongoing; automation-first agencies ship boutique tier at $2,499 one time, or $297 a month.
Key takeaways
- Decks have two distinct revenue streams, new build (high-ticket) + refinish (recurring) need separate landing pages
- Composite vs wood education is the highest-converting content page for new-build buyers
- Annual maintenance programs capture 3 to 5x lifetime value vs one-time refinish customers
- A converting deck builder site books 15 to 40 qualified consultations/month mixed across both revenue streams
