- What does grooved mean on this board?
- The long edges have a channel that accepts hidden deck clips. Fasteners sit in the groove, so no screw heads show on the walking surface.
- Is this board capped?
- Yes. Legacy boards are capped on all four sides, which protects the core from moisture and helps resist staining and fading.
- How does it compare with Trex?
- Both are capped composites with hidden-fastener options. TimberTech Legacy leans toward a variegated, tropical wood look, while Trex offers its own grain patterns and color lines.
- Does the dark color get hot?
- Dark brown composite absorbs more sun than light colors and can feel hot on bare feet in direct summer sun. Shade or lighter colors help.
- Can I use it for a deck edge or picture frame?
- Grooved boards are made for field decking with clips. For borders and stairs, solid-edge boards of the same line are the usual choice.
- What is in the box?
- The board itself. Hidden fasteners, screws and trim are sold separately.
- Where is the TimberTech Legacy Espresso Grooved Composite Deck Board 1-in x 6-in x 20-ft cheapest?
- At Lowe's, for $181.09, as of our latest check.
