Five Dock questions

Decking prices in Five Dock.

Quick answers on what decks might cost in Five Dock. These are estimates, not quotes.

How much does a deck cost in Five Dock?
A rough guide for Five Dock is about $10,900, with most estimates between $7,250 and $17,650. It covers a 4×6m hardwood deck supplied + installed inc GST. It's an estimate from regional prices, not local quote data. Every job is different. Larger spans, premium finishes and hard access push you toward the top end; straightforward swaps and standard specs sit near the bottom.
What affects the decks price in Five Dock?
Five things move the number most: scope (size, span, thickness), material grade, site access (driveway, levels, parking for a truck), labour rate set by the crew you pick, and any compliance work specific to the Sydney council.
Are these prices including GST?
Yes. Every figure on this page is GST-inclusive, supplied and installed. A written quote from a GST-registered tradie should show the total including GST.
How quickly can I get a written quote for a deck in Five Dock?
Most tradies can give you a written quote within a few days of seeing the job.
Do Five Dock decks need council approval?
Decks under 1m above ground generally don't need council approval in NSW, but pool-adjacent decks, decks attached to heritage stock, or anything over 25m² with structural changes usually do. If a permit or compliance check is needed, ask for it to be listed on the quote, so there are no surprise costs after the job starts.
