Trex composite decking is transforming waterfront properties across Montgomery County, Maryland and Fairfax County, Virginia. Unlike traditional wood, Trex resists rot, splintering, and salt water damage—making it ideal for docks and marinas. As waterfront property owners in the DMV increasingly seek low-maintenance, durable solutions, composite decking has become one of the fastest-growing applications for Trex beyond residential patios.
The environment around docks and marinas is extremely challenging for any decking board material. In the summer, the deck must withstand extreme sun, and year round, docks and marinas alike are constantly exposed to and covered in water.
Trex made significant warranty changes in 2020 that impact every installer in Maryland and Virginia. If you build decks in Montgomery County, Fairfax County, or throughout the DMV, understanding these updates is essential for your projects and customer relationships. We'll break down the key changes, what they mean for your business, and how to navigate them moving forward.
The designations of “TrexPro,” “TrexPro Gold,” and “TrexPro Platinum” will still stand. Even after the changes in 2020, Platinum will still be considered the highest level of recognition an independent contractor can achieve, and earning Gold or Platinum status will still be possible by meeting an installation volume threshold.
