At Archadeck of Charlotte, we get asked daily to recommend a brand of composite decking. Since we are a design/build company, we can use any of the brands out there. Out of the 40 plus manufacturers of composite decking, there are only a few that we are comfortable with in terms of availability, the company that stands behind the product, and the performance. Trex has been around the longest and invented the category. Until recently, we had been reluctant to market their product due to mildew and staining issues. Last fall I was introduced to their new Trex Transcends product and was quite impressed. They found a way to wrap their composite product with a PVC and Acrylic capstock. This allowed them to put a great warranty against staining and fading on the product. We are now actively marketing this and it has caught on very quickly! There are 4 attractive colors and an authentic wood grain that give it a nice appearance. The performance is what we are most excited about!
