- Compare Decking quotes with the same details: Deck area and board material; Subframe, levelling and drainage; Stairs, edging and trims.
- Indicative 2026 benchmark: AED 180-650+ per sq m for many Dubai decking supply and installation scopes. Composite or timber board quality, subframe, levelling, drainage, stairs, edging and access can move the quote higher.
- Use the garden landscaping guide for outdoor finish context, then compare decking quotes by board, subframe and drainage scope.
For decking, compare board material, subframe, drainage and edge finishing before choosing by square-metre price. Ask providers to separate boards, subframe, levelling, drainage, steps and edge trims so square-metre rates are not misleading.
