        "text": "The cost of building a multi-level deck is influenced by several factors, including its overall size, the complexity of the design, the type of materials chosen, and site preparation needs. For instance, more levels, intricate shapes, or specialized features like built-in seating and lighting will increase labor and material costs. A key decision factor for customers is the choice between pressure-treated lumber, composite decking, or hardwoods, as each has different price points and maintenance requirements.",
