Whether you want a scenic, picturesque location to host parties and events, a place to read the perfect book, or an outdoor hideaway to take a siesta by the sea, a high quality deck is your ticket to relaxation. When you want your dream TrexPro deck, you should trust only a TrexPro Platinum dealer to install it.

Trex has cemented its position as the world’s number one decking brand since its inception in 1996. Since then, Trex has spent over two decades inventing, defining, and perfecting composite decks with an impressive roster of high-performance, low-maintenance, environmentally conscious products that have fundamentally changed the way we interact with decking outdoors.

When you are about to make a major addition to your home, you may have many questions that you would want to ask a contractor: Have you built with Trex before? How much experience have you had with multi-level decks? Will you assist in the design or do we need to hire an architect? Do you have a business and/or contractor’s license? What is the range of lead time for a new deck project? May I see pictures of past projects?

A quality TrexPro Platinum dealer can be trusted to properly install and finish your Trex deck, which will include the finest Trex features such as: a protective shell, a deep wood grain, an assortment of more than a dozen colors from which to choose, and a product that is made of 95% recycled materials (recycled wood, sawdust, and plastic film).
