Hi - Im building a new deck and looking at the composites. Have heard things about Trex not matching in color and some chipping/poor manufacturing. Im unfamiliar with Ever Grain and Timber Tech. Those three are the choices available from the lumber yards that the builders/pros purchase from. Anyone with experience as to why I should use one verses the others please tell me why.

Also, I could drive to Lowes or Home Depot if anyone has opinions to the composites they sell.

Evergrain is a very good product - color and manufacturing is very good.. although make sure you look at the brochure to see how much each color fades. Timber Tech I haven't used yet - but have heard good things about it. You couldn't give me Trex to use on a deck.

Hey Rich - why is that? Because of the fasteners or fading or what?
