Trex Decking - So Much Nicer Than Treated Wood

Would Recommend

I installed Trex deck boards (beach dune) on my 200 square foot deck, and I love the way it looks, and its so easy to clean with just a hose. My old deck is only a few inches off the ground and was still very solid, but the wood surface was so weather beaten after 30+ years, so I painted the old wood with 2 coats of the very thick Cabot Deck Correct to seal it thoroughly, and then applied the Trex boards right over top of the old deck lumber. I did this because I am installing a hot tub on my d...

This is a sample

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I ordered this sample, as I am an interior consultant, I wanted something to show clients when recommending this product. As this is just a sample, it serves its purpose. This did not come with any literature about the product, or its cost.

Looks Great!

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This looks like a good improvement over earlier generations of Trex. The color coating is quite deep, and if scratched, holds its color well. The texture looks more like wood grain than some older Trex I have installed on my deck stairs, so this will be less slick when wet. This very solid, and I am hopeful that it will have outstanding durability.

Sturdy, Nice Color

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Trex Enhance Composite Decking... requested & received a 1 ft. sample in the 'saddle' color. was surprised to see that the color ran very deep thru the decking piece. It was thicker, a sturdier feel than other brands of composite decking that I have been researching.

Saddle color decking

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really love the color, texture and thickness of the decking material. Best part is you can’t get splinters from this.

Nice!

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got a Enhance Saddle 1 ft sample for my parents. They are in the process of building a new deck. They were looking for a product that looks like wood, but is more efficient. This product is exactly what they want. They are excited to use this, as it will be easier to maintain and won’t be affected by the weather as regular wood would be.

Very Nice!

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I recently tried the Trex 1 foot Sample in Saddle color and was very pleased. The coloring of this sample is very nice, and a pretty brown shade similar to leather. I like that this sample is large enough I can see the details of the lines and grain. The sample is very sturdy and a great way to compare to other colors and textures. I would recommend this product!

Excellent

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am very pleased with this sample piece. I will say I was impressed with the quality of this product. It looks like a wooden insert for the deck but it is really sturdier than that. I love how you can spill anything and everything on it and it wont soak in. You can just pressure wash it to clean. I highly recommend.

not my favorite color

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Looks super dull , I don’t think I am going to use this for my deck project. I will likely pick a more natural brown or just dark grey. Great quality but this isn’t the modern deck I would like to build.
