It is a ground level deck and I would just have to build a single step up to our rear patio door. Does anyone know what a patio pour would cost for a 24*20 area so that I could compare it to the cost of composite?
I switched my deck to composite a couple years ago. Major improvement! But, I did have to add extra joists to make it 12” on center due to the extra weight and support needed for composite.

Just my opinion but I think it looks nicer than concrete.
