WHAT MAKES TREX COMPOSITE DECKING BETTER THAN WOOD?

When researching the best materials to build your dream decking, there are two main alternatives on the market: composite decking and wood. Let’s explore the advantages and disadvantages of each option.

TREX:

There are many advantages to building a Trex deck:

  • Trex is world-famous for the durability of its new-generation boards, thanks to their protective shell which covers the composite board underneath. The high-performance boards withstand weather conditions much better than wood – come scorching sun or pouring rain your decking will remain good as new, so you can enjoy your outdoor zone for longer. Trex decks are also mould and mildew-proof and termite-proof.
  • Trex decks are designed to be low maintenance, with no sanding, staining or painting required to keep them looking good. They can be cleaned with a power washer or simply with soap and water.
  • With 20 fade-resistant colours available, Trex decks are ideal for any project concept. Trex’s 25 year warranty also covers your deck against fading.
  • A great eco-friendly alternative, Trex decking is made of 95% recycled materials – reclaimed wood, sawdust and plastic – a much higher percentage than other composite decks. Every 500 square foot Trex deck contains more than 140,000 recycled plastic bags.

The main disadvantage is the price of a Trex deck, which is more expensive than wood. However, once you factor in the continual maintenance required for wood decking, the initial cost of Trex decking balances out. Another downside is that certain Trex boards are up to 70% heavier than their wood counterparts. Looking up ‘Trex deck installers near me’ is your best bet, as the professional masters will do all the heavy lifting for you!

WOOD:

Wood decking is very high maintenance, and requires constant care to avoid not just aesthetic concerns but also safety hazards.

  • Wood scratches and stains easily and tends to splinter, warp and crack.
  • To keep it looking good, wood decking needs annual staining, repainting, cleaning or resealing.
  • Weather damage or insect damage can mean that the decking boards need replacement.
  • Whilst wood may seem like the eco-friendly alternative due to its natural materials, wood decking actually contributes to deforestation.

TREX DECKING COLLECTIONS

If you would like to build a Trex deck, there are three new-generation collections to browse depending on your budget and preferences:

  • Trex Transcend
  • Trex Enhance
  • Trex Select
  • WHAT IS TREX TRANSCEND COMPOSITE DECKING?

    Trex Transcend is Trex’s top-of-the-range series. Transcend boards have a deep wood-grain pattern, three-side shell protection against the elements, and are offered in a range of eight colours in two styles to suit any project you have in mind. The Premium Tropical collection includes Havana Gold, Island Mist, Lava Rock, Spiced Rum, Tiki Torch, and the Classic Earth Tones range consists of Gravel Path, Rope Swing, and Vintage Lantern. Transcend boards are available in 1 or 2-inch thickness.

  • Trex Enhance comes in two grades: Enhance Naturals and Enhance Basics. Boards in the Enhance collection are scalloped and lightweight in comparison to Transcend or Select decking, so if you plan to fit your Trex deck yourself (rather than find a builder near you) then the Enhance range is probably your best bet. Bear in mind that Enhance decking only comes in a 1-inch thickness.

  • If you’re looking for an authentic wood-grain aesthetic then this is the ideal mid-range collection for you. The natural, muted colours of these high-performance boards include Coastal Bluff, Foggy Harbour, Rocky Wharf and Toasted Sand.

  • For quality and low-maintenance boards at a lower price, Trex Enhance Basics is a great option – this is Trex’s most affordable collection. However, there are only three colours of board in this collection: Beach Dune, Clam Shell and Saddle.

  • Trex Select is perfect for those who want a luxury look and stylish outdoor zone on a budget. The quality of Trex Select’s mid-range boards does not match that of Trex Transcend and is slightly more prone to scratching, but is covered by Trex’s 25 year warranty regardless. There are five colours in the Select line-up – Madeira, Pebble Grey, Saddle, Winchester Grey and Woodland Brown – and you can choose from 1 or 2-inch thickness boards.
