Here at Miles Bradley, we build custom composite decks in Farmington Hills. We use Timbertech and Trex composite decking materials for the best quality decks. While our decks are of the highest quality, they are also beautiful.
Both Timbertech and Trex are popular composite decking companies. This means that both companies have similar advantages. Unlike wood, composite decks have desirable factors of durability, longevity, and maintainability. But there are some differences between Timbertech and Trex as well.
Timbertech
Timbertech decks are generally more expensive than Trex decks. This is because of the slight difference in the board design. Although Timbertech boards are also made of recycled material, they contain a protective polymer shell that protects all four sides of the board. Because of this extra coverage, Timbertech materials are more resistant to harsh weather, an important quality to have in Michigan.
Trex
All of the Trex decking materials are made up of a protective shell and a composite score. The protective shell provides coverage to three sides of the board; the top and both sides. The bottom of the board is left unsealed, allowing the material to respire while also being protected. Furthermore, Trex decking materials tend to have more scratch resistance than Timbertech.

Composite decks made from Trex materials can maintain the beauty of the deck for years to come with little to no maintenance. There are several advantages to a composite deck over a wood deck and we will cover a few.
Wood decks need constant upkeep each season. From sanding to staining there is almost always maintenance that is needed. Where a composite deck would just need some soap and water to clean it up once a year. In addition to being durable and low maintenance, a composite deck made with Trex materials has a 25-year fade and stain warranty. Another benefit of a composite deck is its durability.
Composite decking is designed to resist scratching, fading, staining, and mold. Also, a composite deck is insect-proof. Another factor is the aesthetics of a composite deck. With a multitude of color choices, and a natural look homeowners can really choose the exact look they are going for. Environmentally friendly is another aspect of these decks. The deck boards themselves are made from recycled materials.
