"It's very hard to cost. Can be repaired but for what it's worth if it's starting rotten my guess is that's very old so if the budget there I would personally replace"

"Hi.
I would need to have a look at it to see to what needs to be repaired. Also please bear in minded you might not be able to get the same decking boards to match the old ones.
Many thanks.
