Trex FAQ.

  • Composite decking is made from recycled and reclaimed sawdust and plastic.

    It outperforms traditional timber and is far more sustainable. Composite decking can also achieve a high-end aesthetic resembling real wood, which stands it apart from PVC decking options.

  • Trex is high-performance

    Trex composite decking is the perfect option for seasoned gardeners. Unlike traditional timber, it doesn’t warp, rot or split.

    It’s mould resistant and doesn’t fade or stain. Selected Trex products feature SunComfortable technology, to create decking that’s more heat-resistant than traditional composite boards*.

  • Trex works with TrexPro installers - who are landscaping professionals based across the UK - trained to fit Trex decking. Customers can use the Trex website to find their nearest TrexPro installer. 


    Trex is also available in merchants across the UK, as well as nationwide in Wickes - meaning homeowners can fit their own decking. 

  • Trex is available in a range of shades - from contemporary greys to classic browns. Explore the full range here

  • There are a range of factors that can influence the price of an individual garden’s Trex deck - we recommend using Trex’s Cost Calculator Tool to indicate a price.

  • Trex decking comes with 25 and 50-year limited residential warranties. This means homeowners’ investment is protected.

  • When it comes to cleaning, all you need is warm water mixed with a mild washing-up liquid. That’s it! 

    Use a hose to spray off dirt and debris before cleaning each board with a soft bristle brush to avoid scratching the deck. 

    While you can use a pressure washer to clean composite decking, it must be on a setting no greater than 3100 psi and used with a fan attachment no closer than 20 centimetres from the decking surface. Rinse thoroughly to avoid any dirty water drying and leaving a film on the decking.

    It’s worth sweeping your deck regularly to prevent the build-up of dirt and debris. Food spillages need to be cleaned quickly to avoid staining but again, that’s easily done with soap and water.

  • Trex performs better than a traditional timber deck as it doesn’t build up any mould or algae, elements which can make timber decking slippery.

    Although Trex isn’t advertised as low-slip, it can be classed as low-slip in dry conditions and moderate-slip in wet conditions

  • Trex can be installed onto concrete, pedestals can be placed onto the concrete which supports the frame and decking.

Trex *SunComfortable decking stays cooler than original Trex boards, but like all decking, it will get hot in direct sun, especially darker colours. Care should be taken to avoid extended contact between exposed skin and the deck surface, especially with young children and those with special needs.
