What Customers Are Saying
Customers overwhelmingly praise the decking for its realistic wood-grain appearance, consistent color, and durability. Reviewers highlight the maintenance-free nature—no painting, staining, or sealing required—and note it lasts longer than traditional wood while resisting weathering and fading. Many appreciate the straightforward installation, especially with hidden fasteners that simplify the building process. The boards are easy to cut and handle. A few customers report receiving warped or damaged boards, and some mention the material becomes very hot in direct sunlight. Overall, most consider it a worthwhile investment for long-term value.

Can’t get square edges on 12’boards! ????
Would RecommendMaterial was fine only gave 4 stars because I couldn’t get the square edge in 12’. Caused me to have to redesign the layout to hide the grooves with 8’ square edges. Turned out nice though.

Thank you for your review. Darker colors tend to retain more heat, so we recommend choosing a lighter shade for warmer climates. To help address this...

Poor selection
This comes in many colors but you don’t have more than two. You seldom have the finish I need if I return to buy more.

some pieces shouldn't be sold at all
Would Not RecommendI ordered 40, but the quality of some pieces is so bad they shouldn't be sold at all. Unfortunately the pieces are 12 feet long and won't fit into my car for return. When I check this out, I remember the website mentioned this is 'in side' delivery, but it turns out they refuse to put them in my garage. Did I misunderstand something here? This is the first time I've used a delivery service, and I am kind of disappointed.
