Trex Decking Options

Trex offers several decking options.  Each Trex line offers unique board design, color, warranty, and price range.  The majority of homeowners choose budget-friendly Trex Select or Trex Enhanced, but for premium value, Trex Transcend or Trex Refuge are premium deck boards.

  • Trex Select with solid-edge boards for a step-up option
  • Trex Transcend available for homeowners wanting a premium product
  • Guidance on which line fits how long you will stay
  • Installation that follows Trex fastening, spacing, and ventilation requirements
  • USA-made boards using recycled plastic and reclaimed wood

TimberTech Decking Options

Unlike traditional wood, TimberTech Decking resists moisture, mold, and insect damage, so it won’t splinter, crack, or fade. It’s easy to clean and backed by a fade- and stain-resistance warranty. With up to 85% recycled content, TimberTech delivers long-term performance and sustainability.

  • TimberTech Advanced PVC offers premium performance for the toughest conditions
  • PVC provides maximum moisture resistance, durability, and is ideal for high-humidity Georgia climates
  • TimberTech composite decking offers long-lasting performance at a more accessible price point
  • Composite decking designed for durability, everyday living, and a natural wood look
  • Unlike TimberTech boards, wood needs regular sanding, staining, and sealing
  • Depending on the product, TimberTech warranties run 25 years to a lifetime, unlike wood
  • TimberTech decking costs more upfront but saves on long-term maintenance

Framing Built to Hold Synthetic Decking

Synthetic deck boards need solid support underneath.  Framing matters more than the deck board installation.  It affects how the deck feels and how well it holds up. What you can expect from CHL Services when we install synthetic/composite decking.

  • Joists spaced 12 inches on center for Scalloped bottom composite deck boards
  • Picture Framing on edges & Breaker boards on decks over 20’
  • Joist Tape or G-Tape applied to the top of all joists to prevent wood rot
  • Hidden Clips and screws to match deck boards
  • Blocking where needed to maximize deck strength
  • Pressure-treated framing built to code with proper hardware

Hybrid and Mixed-Material Built Decks

A synthetic deck does not have to be PVC or composite from top to bottom. A good composite deck builder can pair composite boards with simpler railing materials for budget-friendly options.

  • Composite deck boards paired with a pressure-treated railing frame
  • Composite top cap that keeps the railing surface low-upkeep
  • Black aluminum balusters added for a cleaner, more modern look
  • Install Trex Decking and TimberTech Railing or Vise Versa
  • Add different railing colors, such as white, black, or bronze, with any decking board color

Deck Board Color and Finishing Details

Composite decking comes in a wide range of browns, grays, and other tones. Your color choice affects how the deck pairs with the home and how warm the surface feels in full sun.

  • Darker Colors are hotter in the sun and show more dirt
  • Lighter Colors are not as hot and show less dirt
  • Browns, grays, and neutral tones suit most exteriors
  • Heat-mitigating technology in certain boards; Great for decks in full sun
  • Stair Risers & Fascia boards to match decking
  • Mix & match colors for unique designs

Composite Decks FAQs

How much does a composite deck cost compared with wood?
Composite costs more upfront than pressure-treated wood, and our custom decks run about $55 to $75 per square foot. Board line, railing choice, deck height, and stairs all move the price within that range. Homeowners who stay five years or more often find the savings on staining and upkeep worth it.
Composite never needs staining, painting, or sealing, which is the main reason many homeowners choose it and composite decking contractors​ recommend it. Routine care means clearing leaves and debris and washing occasionally with warm, soapy water and a soft brush. It is low upkeep, not no upkeep, and regular cleaning keeps the boards looking their best.
Composite boards can get hot in direct sun, and darker colors hold more heat than lighter ones. Some Trex colors use heat-mitigating technology, though they can still feel warm in full sun. We can plan for sun exposure with lighter colors, shade, and a layout that suits the yard.
No, many homeowners use composite boards with a pressure-treated railing frame and add aluminum balusters. That mix keeps the surface low-maintenance while holding down the cost of the railing system. We will tell you honestly which upgrades are worth it and which you can skip. Our composite decking installers​ can provide more info during a consultation.
