Many homeowners strive to maximize their outdoor living space by having a deck that extends over a walk-out basement, essentially giving them two levels of outdoor living. However, traditional decks can be limited during wet weather, as rain leaks through the deck to the area below. Thanks to Trex RainEscape, you can transform the under-deck area into a usable, dry space, no matter what the weather is like–and you’ll find it at Gerber Lumber.
Why Choose Trex RainEscape?
Trex RainEscape offers several valuable benefits that can greatly enhance your under-deck space by draining water away from the deck. First, it ensures that the space beneath your deck remains dry, offering more usable space for storage, entertainment, or relaxation. This also enhances the overall look of the deck by giving the under-deck area a clean, finished ceiling, increasing your home’s value and the aesthetics of this space.
The RainEscape system also protects the deck substructure from moisture damage, extending its lifespan by offering greater prevention against mold, mildew, and rot. Funneling water away from the decking is crucial for achieving these results.
How Trex RainEscape Works
Trex RainEscape is an innovative solution that uses a system of gutters and troughs to divert water away from the area beneath your decking. The system is connected using special under-deck fasteners, which allows for fast and easy installation. During a storm, the troughs direct rainwater to the gutters to channel water away from the deck, rather than allowing it to leak through to the under-deck area.
