Trex Platinum Pro
Trex deck builder in Denver, and a Platinum Pro Trex installer.
Anyone can buy Trex boards. Platinum Pro status is Trex's own recognition of how a contractor installs them — and it's the difference between a deck that merely uses the brand and one the manufacturer stands behind.
The lineup
Every Trex line, and which one your project actually needs.
Enhance Naturals is the value entry — a genuine capped board with a 25-year fade-and-stain warranty that keeps a full build near the bottom of the composite price range. Transcend and Transcend Lineage are the flagship: deeper grain, the widest color range in the industry, and 50-year coverage. Signature sits at the premium end with 50-year coverage and the longest labor-warranty terms in the Trex lineup — the line for a deck you intend to be the last one you build.
We keep samples of all of them, and our advice is frequently that a project doesn't need the top tier — an Enhance deck on properly engineered framing will outlast a premium board on a bad structure every time. The full brand-by-brand warranty math, including what “50-year” actually pays in year 30, is in our plain-English warranty guide, and our installer's comparison of the major brands plays every manufacturer straight.
Why the installer matters
The board is warrantied. The build is on us.
Trex warranties the boards — against fading, staining, and manufacturing defects, for decades. What the warranty doesn't cover is the structure underneath: the footings, the framing, the ledger connection, the gapping and fastening the install spec requires. That's the part that actually decides how a Colorado deck ages, because our altitude UV, hail, and freeze-thaw work on the structure as hard as the surface. Every Trex deck we build sits on engineered framing with footings below frost line, hidden fasteners per spec, and gapping set for the temperature the day we install — the details that keep the warranty clean and the deck flat.
And behind Trex's coverage sits our own guarantee: two years on workmanship in writing, honored longer in practice. One call starts any claim — we run it end to end, whether it's a board issue for Trex or a build issue on us.

Hiring a Trex installer
Four questions for any Trex installer in Denver.
Trex decking is sold through lumberyards, so anyone with a truck can install it. Here's how to tell a Trex deck builder from someone who just bought the boards:
- Which Trex tier do you hold? Trex ranks installers on volume and training. Platinum Pro, the tier we hold, is the top one.
- Can I see Trex decks you've finished? Look at the gaps at board ends and the fastener lines, not just the color.
- How do you gap and fasten the boards? Trex publishes an install guide for joist spacing, gapping and fasteners. A Trex installer should be able to walk you through it, and following it is what keeps the warranty valid.
- Who handles a warranty claim? With us it's one call, whether the problem is a board for Trex or a build issue for us.
We build Trex decks across the Denver metro, from Highlands Ranch and Littleton to Aurora and Parker. Our guide to choosing a deck builder covers the rest of the hiring questions.
Trex questions, answered straight.
What does Trex Platinum Pro actually mean?
It's the top tier of Trex's installer program — awarded on installation volume and quality standards, not purchased. For you it means the crew building your deck installs Trex to the manufacturer's own specification, which is what keeps the 25-to-50-year material warranties clean, and that a manufacturer-recognized contractor stands behind the install alongside our own 2-year written workmanship warranty.
Which Trex lines do you install?
All of the current ones. Trex Enhance Naturals is the value entry with a 25-year warranty; Transcend and Transcend Lineage are the flagship boards with 50-year fade-and-stain coverage and the deepest color range; Signature sits at the premium end, pairing 50-year coverage with the longest labor terms in the lineup. We keep samples of every line and will tell you honestly which tier your project actually needs — often it isn't the most expensive one.
How much does a Trex deck cost installed in Denver?
The same $40–$70 per square foot installed range as other capped composites we build — a typical 300–400 square foot Trex deck lands around $15,000–$30,000 with stairs, railing, and permits included. Board tier moves the number within that range: Enhance keeps projects near the bottom, Transcend and Signature push toward the top. Every estimate is itemized so you can see exactly what the board choice is worth.
How do I find a certified Trex installer in Denver?
Start with the tier. Trex ranks its installers by volume and training, and Platinum Pro is the top tier, so ask any contractor which tier they hold and check it with Trex. Then ask to see finished Trex decks, ask how they gap and fasten the boards to Trex's install guide, and ask who handles a warranty claim. We're a Platinum Pro Trex installer building across the Denver metro, and we answer all of that in writing.
Is Trex the best composite for Colorado?
It's one of three we'd put on the table, and the honest answer depends on your yard. Trex has the widest color range and strong value at the entry tier. For full-sun exposures we often steer toward Deckorators, whose mineral-based boards run cooler and move less through Colorado's big temperature swings — we hold that brand's top certification too. The right way to decide is samples on your actual deck site, in your actual light, and we bring them.
