Yes, Trex composite decking expands and contracts with temperature fluctuations, as with most composite materials. To account for this natural movement, it?s essential to leave a gap between boards during installation. The recommended gap is 5mm to 8mm for end-to-end board spacing and 3mm to 5mm between side edges of the boards. These gaps ensure that the decking can expand and contract without causing buckling or warping.

- Trex hideaway? hidden fasteners: these provide a smooth, screw-free deck surface.
- Trex ? decking screws: these are designed for visible fastenings with stainless steel or coated options to prevent corrosion.
