        "text": "The cost of a new deck installation varies based on several factors, including the size and complexity of the design, the type of material chosen (e.g., pressure-treated wood, cedar, composite decking), and site preparation requirements. Features like multi-level designs, built-in seating, railings, and stairs will also add to the overall cost. For example, composite decking typically has a higher upfront material cost than pressure-treated lumber but may offer lower long-term maintenance expenses.",
