What Customers Are Saying
Customers overwhelmingly praise this composite decking for its premium appearance, durability, and minimal upkeep. Most highlight how the boards transform outdoor spaces with a modern look that surpasses traditional wood, with many commending the color options and noting the finish stays fresh for years. Reviewers consistently emphasize ease of installation and cutting, plus the clean aesthetic from hidden fasteners. The low-maintenance appeal resonates strongly—no painting, staining, splinters, or rot concerns. A small number report warping on some boards or surface scratches on textured finishes, but these concerns are far outweighed by widespread satisfaction and the belief that upfront cost delivers long-term value.

Easy installation and instructions.
Would RecommendThe boards are heavy and durable. We’re in great shape. Had a delivery issue which the store fixed immediately. This was my first time installing trex and the system is easy to understand and install. Materials are quality.

Looks good installed.
Would RecommendThe price for this is a great value. The only issue is the slight warp that most of them have. This is the second deck I've covered with this and I am completely satisfied with its appearance and durability.

SAGGY
Would RecommendTrex recommended 16" OC for my deck. This material sags with time. If you are going to use it, I strongly recommend 10" to 12" OC. You will like it better when it doesn't sag after 10 years of use. Otherwise, I appreciate the colorfastness.

Buy extra fasteners.A lot snap during installation
I had to think about a 3 or 4 star. Ultimately, 4 is the fair rating because the Trex decking itself is exactly what I wanted and I know it will outlast me. It looks great and was easy to install. My problem is with the Trex universal fasteners. They are cheap trash. Approximately 20% of the fasteners snapped while screwing them in meaning I had to choose between unscrewing the fasteners that worked and starting that row over or just leaving useless fasteners in the deck building only one o...
