What is Trex?

Pebble Gray Trex decking with a snap and lock baluster rail, featuring a hot tub.

  • Composite Decking Made to Last: Trex combines recycled wood fibers and high-density polyethylene plastic, creating a durable, low-maintenance decking solution. This process, known as Eovations™ Technology, makes Trex decking resistant to moisture, mold, fading, and stains.
  • No Splintering, Cracking, or Warping: Unlike traditional wood, Trex decking won’t splinter, crack, or warp. It offers a long lifespan with minimal upkeep, giving homeowners a reliable outdoor surface.
  • Built to Endure Harsh Conditions: Trex’s design allows it to withstand extreme outdoor conditions. The cap layer protects the decking from UV rays, keeping the colors vibrant under direct sunlight.
  • Eco-Friendly: Trex decking is made with up to 95% recycled content, making it an environmentally sustainable option that reduces the need for virgin timber.
  • Multiple Product Lines: Trex offers a variety of decking options—Trex Transcend, Trex Enhance, and Trex Select—each with different performance levels, color choices, and pricing to suit various needs and budgets.

Trex Pro Platinum FAQs

Yes, you can install Trex decking over an existing wood deck, as long as the structure is in good condition. The wood deck must have appropriate joist spacing (typically 16″ on center) and no structural issues like rot or warping. Our team of certified Trex installers at Farrar Construction will assess your existing deck to ensure it can support the new composite decking and follow all Trex decking installation guidelines for a successful, long-lasting installation.
The installation time for Trex decking depends on the size and complexity of the deck. Most standard decks can be completed in 3 to 10 days, while custom deck installations with additional features like built-in seating or multi-level designs may take longer. Our deck contractors will provide a clear timeline before starting, ensuring the project stays on track and meets your expectations.
One of the main benefits of Trex composite decking is its low maintenance. Trex decking requires no staining, sealing, or sanding, unlike traditional wood decking. Routine maintenance involves cleaning with soap and water or a mild deck cleaner to keep your deck looking great. Trex decking is also resistant to moisture, mold, and insects, meaning you won’t need to worry about the upkeep that often comes with wood decking.
Yes, Trex decking is engineered to resist fading and staining. The capstock technology in Trex composite decking protects against UV rays, preventing color fading even after years of exposure to the sun. Trex decking is highly resistant to stains from common outdoor substances like food, grease, and oils, so it’s ideal for low-maintenance decking that retains its vibrant color and looks new over time.
