Help!!! Is This Cost To High?

by Mark Tobin
(Montreal, Quebec, Canada)

I own a duplex and contracted to build two decks the main floor deck is 280 sq ft (20x14) and the upper deck is 140 sq ft.

Both these decks were tied into existing staircases. I hired someone to build my deck and was quoted $8,250 for labor and spent another $7,000 on materials and rentals total is $15,250 or 36.31/sq ft.

I feel this is high can someone give me some feedback. All pressure treated material.
