Frequently Asked Questions

How long will Trex RainEscape last?

Trex RainEscape is designed for durability and comes with a 25-year warranty, indicating its expected lifespan under normal conditions and proper installation. Its innovative overmount drainage system protects the deck's substructure from moisture damage, helping to extend the overall life of your deck. With features that promote efficient water drainage and low maintenance, Trex RainEscape offers long-lasting performance for your outdoor space.

What is an alternative to Trex RainEscape?

Alternatives to Trex RainEscape include under-deck ceiling systems, which use corrugated panels to catch water but may allow moisture to contact wooden joists, risking rot. Waterproofing decking flanges can also be used to seal gaps between boards, but they may require additional maintenance and can be challenging to install. Other drainage systems exist, but above-joist systems like Trex RainEscape typically offer superior protection for the deck's substructure, ensuring long-lasting performance and usability of the space below.ShareRewrite

Can you install Trex RainEscape after a deck is built?

Yes, you can install Trex RainEscape after a deck is built, but it requires removing the existing deck boards first. Trex RainEscape is installed above the joists, which means the top deck boards need to be removed prior to installation. This system is designed to be installed between the joists of the deck, creating a waterproof barrier that channels water away from the area below.

Why is my Trex RainEscape leaking from my deck?

Leaks in your Trex RainEscape system may be due to installation issues, such as:

  1. Misaligned Joist Tape: If the tape isn’t properly installed, it can compromise the watertight seal. Reinstalling the tape may resolve the issue.
  2. Uneven Trough Slope: Flat spots or uneven slopes can cause water pooling. Adjusting the troughs to ensure a consistent slope can fix this.
  3. Incorrect Downspout Placement: Poorly positioned downspouts may not divert water effectively. Relocating them can improve drainage.

To prevent leaks, follow the installation guide closely and perform regular maintenance, including clearing debris and inspecting the system.

What material is Trex RainEscape made of?

Trex RainEscape is made from durable poly material that includes ultraviolet inhibitors. This construction ensures that the system can withstand exposure to sun, snow, and rain, providing long-lasting performance. Additionally, Trex RainEscape is backed by a 25-year warranty, reflecting its durability and reliability in outdoor conditions1

How to clean Trex RainEscape?
