Decks are a maintenance job, not a one-off. Sanding back and re-oiling every couple of years costs a fraction of replacing boards that have been left to grey and split.
What moves the price
Why two quotes differ
Timber condition / prep
"weathered timber fence needs washing, sanding and spot priming before a brush touches it"; a "rusted metal fence needs the rust dealt with or the new coat lifts within a season"
Bundling with a larger exterior job
adding fence work to a house exterior project typically reduces per-linear-metre rates by 15–25%, since mobilisation costs are already covered
Access difficulty
adds 10–25% for challenging locations on deck work
Coastal microclimate
coastal areas require premium products
