Trex Decking Materials

Trex decking products are all top of the line systems for your backyard and home. What makes them so unique? For this post, we’re going to consider the differences and strengths that each line (Transcend, Accents, and Enhance) has and why you should consider it for your DIY deck project.

Transcend Composite Decking

Transcend is a revolutionary product. Its core is a basic composite material: strong, durable, and reliable. However, the difference here is its outer shell. The Transcend™ line’s protective shell is warrantied against fading, staining, and scratching. Each decking board is protected on three sides that protect against the element for superior weather protection.

I have seen a lot of stuff spilled on decks before; however, I have never seen anything impossible to get off of Transcend. I’ve seen tables shift on decks that have left scratches and dents in any other material; however, I’ve never seen anything scratch Transcends.

The one downside with this product is it retains heat. However, all Trex decking materials retain heat like this. The best way to avoid it is to install a pergola or other shade structure to keep the heat off.

Accents Composite Decking

Accents is the next best thing to Transcends. It comes with the same great stain resistance, but does not have the tough outer coating that allows Transcends to be scratch and fade resistant. However, this product comes in the same colors as Trex Seclusions fencing so they are the perfect match for your yard.

Enhance Composite Decking

Like Transcend, the high-performance of Trex Enhance is due to a revolutionary three-sided shell that protects against staining, fading and mold. Enhance won’t rot, warp, crack or splinter – and upkeep is hassle- free. Unlike wood, the product requires no sanding, staining or painting, and its protective shell defends against severe weather and heavy foot traffic while being extremely low maintenance. In fact, spills wash off easily with just soap and water. The entire Enhance decking collection is backed by a 20-year Limited Residential Fade and Stain Warranty for lasting peace-of-mind.

Whatever material you decide to use, Trex is perfect solution for your decking needs.
