At Pegram Builders, we are always on the lookout for the best materials to use in our construction projects. When it comes to decking, one name consistently stands out: Trex Decking. In this blog, we’ll share the reasons why we like to use Trex in some of our composite decking projects.
1. Durability that Lasts for Decades
One of the biggest challenges for any deck is dealing with the elements. Weather, UV exposure, moisture, and everyday wear and tear can quickly degrade the quality of wood decks, leaving them susceptible to rot, splinters, and fading. Trex decking, however, is engineered to withstand these challenges. Made from a combination of recycled wood fibers and plastic, Trex is designed to be weather-resistant and impervious to moisture. This means no rotting, warping, or splintering over time. For homeowners, that translates to a deck that will look great and stand strong for decades, with minimal maintenance.
2. Low Maintenance, High Performance
One of the most common complaints about traditional wood decks is the constant upkeep they require. Sanding, sealing, staining, and painting can take up a significant amount of time and effort, not to mention the expense. With Trex decking, maintenance is a breeze. Unlike wood, Trex doesn’t need to be treated or resealed every few years. A simple cleaning with soap and water is all it takes to keep it looking pristine. For our clients, this means fewer headaches and a lot more time to enjoy their outdoor spaces without worrying about upkeep.
3. Eco-Friendly and Sustainable
At Pegram Builders, we’re committed to sustainability and minimizing our environmental impact. Trex shares this value, and that’s why we love using their decking materials. Trex is made from 95% recycled materials, including plastic film and reclaimed wood fibers. By using these materials, Trex not only helps reduce the demand for new timber, but also keeps millions of pounds of plastic and wood waste out of landfills every year. For homeowners who are eco-conscious, choosing Trex means they are investing in a product that contributes to a cleaner planet.
4. Endless Design Options
Trex decking comes in a variety of colors, textures, and finishes, giving us the flexibility to design a deck that matches any home’s aesthetic. Whether you’re looking for a traditional wood-like appearance, or something more modern and sleek, Trex has an option to suit every taste. Pegram Builders works closely with our clients to choose the perfect Trex product that complements their home and outdoor style, ensuring the final result is as beautiful as it is functional.
5. Slip-Resistant Surface
Safety is a top priority in every project we undertake, and Trex decking is designed with this in mind. Many Trex decking products feature a textured, slip-resistant surface that provides added safety, especially in wet conditions. This makes Trex an ideal choice for families with children or for homes in regions with frequent rain or humidity. You can enjoy your deck with peace of mind, knowing that it’s safe for everyone.
6. Strong Warranty and Peace of Mind
Pegram Builders stands behind every project we complete, and we know that Trex shares this commitment to quality. For us as builders, knowing that we are offering such a reliable product reinforces our commitment to providing the best service and results to our clients.
7. Value for Money
While Trex decking may initially cost more than traditional wood, its long-term value far outweighs the investment. The durability, low maintenance requirements, and lasting beauty of Trex decks mean that homeowners won’t have to spend money on repairs, replacements, or regular upkeep. Over time, Trex can actually save you money compared to wood decks, making it a smart financial choice for homeowners who want to enjoy their outdoor spaces for years to come without the burden of costly maintenance.
At Pegram Builders, we prioritize quality, sustainability, and long-term value in every project we undertake. Trex decking offers all of these benefits and more, which is why we consistently choose it for our decking projects.
