SAGGY

Would Recommend

Trex 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.

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...
