Great replacement for old wooden deck boards

Would Recommend

The product is a great replacement for my old wooden deck boards. I have not worked with the "Enhanced Basic s" Trex board with the grooved edges before, and having to order special boards for the outside edges makes computing board quantities and specifying the proper part # quite difficult.

It always looks new and fresh, requires no upkeep.

Would Recommend

My local store was sold out because the product is a smart choice in Texas. So I called around and couldn't locate the product anywhere. The last store I called was in Prosper, TX and asked for the help desk. The rep said his store was also out of the product, but he told me he'd call me back after he checked around. 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 ...

Ask for 12 footers until they agree to stock them.

Would Recommend

I really like this product, but I needed 12 foot boards and could not get this type of trex board in 12 foot lengths. I wasted several feet of board because of the problem.

Looks good installed.

Would Recommend

The 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.
