TimberTech Decks & Patios Review
Owned by AZEK — premium PVC + composite with cooler-surface technology.

Strengths
- AZEK PVC line: coolest deck surface in direct sun
- 50-year limited warranty (AZEK Vintage)
- No wood fiber = no rot, no mildew, no fading
- Strong color palette + realistic embossing
Weaknesses
- AZEK costs 15-30% more than Trex equivalent
- Smaller dealer network than Trex in some regions

Frequently Asked Questions
Is TimberTech worth the upgrade over Trex?
For mid-tier (TimberTech Prime+ vs Trex Select), close enough that the price gap isn't justified. For premium (AZEK Vintage vs Trex Transcend), AZEK wins on cool-surface tech and longer warranty.
What's the difference between TimberTech composite and AZEK PVC?
Composite has ~50% wood fiber + recycled plastic. AZEK is 100% PVC — no wood. PVC won't mildew, fade, or absorb water, but costs more and is denser.
