Ratings & Reviews for Trex Enhance Basics 1-in x 6-in x 16.0-ft Clam Shell Grooved Composite Deck Board

Really is a cost safer overtime.

Priced stone pavers, treated wood and tiles; this product is beautiful and requires no maintenance, other than simple sweeping the fallen leaves off in the winter.

Lasts and easy to maintain.

Installs just like wood and lasts for years. I've used the red and the grey. The grey shows dirt and stains more but both can be pressure washed with no damage. There is no maintenance required. I'll never put in another wood deck.

Delivered damaged

Lowes was days late on their "same day delivery", delivered damaged, and refused to assist me on multiple attempts to get a refund. Not cool!

Defective Trex

The product was warped on each end causing a dip in the deck once installed. When I took a piece back to Lowe’s they took no responsibility and even insulted my intelligence by suggesting it was an installation issue, when the piece I brought back obviously wasn’t installed! Very disappointed! This is the second time I’ve had issues with Lowe’s and this particular store manager.

It looks good and is very affordable and easy to w

I have used this exact product onto other deck projects and it worked very well so I chose to use it again for a third time on my most recent project It looks good and is very durable. It is also easy to install.

We used this to re-deck our pontoon boat. Great!!

Great start now wait and see

Easy to install looks good just now have to wait to see how well it holds up over time

Nice boards, curled ends.

Nice boards, but the ends curled up prior to being installed. We had to cut maybe 18” off each end to get them to lay flat. That’s a lot of waste. Good thing we ordered enough extra to deal with the ends curling. The shorter length boards may be better.

Too hot for Texas heat!

These deck boards are awesome EXCEPT they get soooo hot. Hotter than concrete. I like to walk out on my deck barefoot but you can't with these! Even around the pool you have to wear your shoes. They install easily enough and they are always pretty to look at but boy are they Caliente!

Bowed down then up on the ends

When they are straight they are good to use and work with. The issue is that the ends are typically bowed down then up, so they dip between the last joists 16” on center. It appears to be from the factory not stacking. I had to go through many bundles to find enough pieces that were fairly straight to use. I even went to 2 different locations and the issue was the same. If you can cut about a foot off each end then the decking is straight, but at $2 a foot you shouldn’t have to.

if you want aa 12' piece you have to buy a 16'

I did not like that all the ends are curved up and some boards are broken on the bottom.
