What Makes Trex Decking Stand Out?

If you’re looking to try to add value to your property, a new deck is a great way to do so! It creates an inviting outdoor space to host any number of social events – or just relax after a hard day at work. Just like every other component of your home’s exterior, you need to take great care in the search for the right materials. Also, like every other component, there are manufacturers that are far ahead of everyone else in the industry. Trex is the undisputed leader in composite decking materials. They’re a clear-cut choice for your decking needs, but what makes it this way? Below, we’ll go over what makes Trex composite decking stand out!

Trex Is Very Low Maintenance

Other decking materials, such as wood decking, require maintenance on a seasonal basis. You’ll need to repaint your deck to maintain its color. You’ll also have to stain the wood and seal it to ensure that weather-related damages never have the opportunity to manifest themselves. Trex decking is superior in terms of weather resistance, ensuring that it has the same great appearance and functionality even years after you install it. It requires a fraction of the maintenance of other decking materials to stay healthy.

Trex Is Longer Lasting

It should go without saying that decks with more rigorous maintenance tasks tend not to last as long as others! Even still, wood decking can last for upwards of 20 years – one of the longest in the industry – before needing replacement. If you think that sounds good, the lifespan of Trex composite decking is better by a country mile. Twenty years for wood decking is the maximum lifespan, while 25 years is the minimum for Trex. In fact, their decking can last for upwards of 50 years before replacements are needed!

Trex Is More Sustainable

While wood decking was a nice choice for decking materials, they weren’t exactly environmentally friendly. It caused an insanely large number of trees to come down annually, which made them not as effective for sustainability. Trex decking is exactly the opposite. It emulates the look and feel of real wood but uses 100% recycled materials to assemble its composite decking. You’ll be looking out for the environment when you work with them!
