Ratings & Reviews for Trex Enhance Basics 1-in x 6-in x 12-ft Clam Shell Grooved/Scalloped Composite Deck Board
Ratings may include incentivized customer reviews.
What Customers Are Saying
Customers overwhelmingly praise this composite decking for exceptional durability, low maintenance, and attractive wood-grain appearance. Most highlight its long-lasting performance, resistance to rot and warping, and elimination of annual staining or sealing compared to traditional wood. The realistic finish and color options receive consistent praise for enhancing curb appeal. Many commend the ease of cutting, handling, and installation, particularly with hidden fastener systems. A few report warping in some boards or note the surface gets hot in direct sunlight, but these concerns rarely outweigh the product's overall benefits. Most consider it a worthwhile investment.

Great replacement for old wooden deck boards

An hour later, he called and had located the product in the new store in Celina, TX. I thanked him and drove immediately to Lowe's Celina, bought the product, and installed it the ...
