>Trex Company, Inc.
Date Filed: January 13, 2009
Court: U.S. District Court
Location: California
Ticker Symbol: TREX

Hagens Berman Sobol Shapiro filed a class-action lawsuit against Trex Company, Inc., claiming the nation's largest manufacturer of wood-alternative decking sells flawed products and fails to live up to its obligations to consumers when its products fail.


In the lawsuit, a Washington homeowner claims that his deck is exhibiting persistent dark spotting/mold.  The homeowner claims Trex offered to replace the damaged boards but refuses to pay for associated labor costs. In exchange for the new materials, Trex asked for a signed release freeing the company from further liability.  A California homeowner has made similar claims in the suit.


The lawsuit alleges violations of the federal Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act, a consumer protection regime; state consumer protection acts; and state sales laws. 


If you purchased or obtained Trex decking material from Aug. 1, 2004 through the present, and if your Trex product is exhibiting dark spotting/mold, you may be eligible to join this suit. To learn more and receive updates about this case, email trex@hbsslaw.com or call (206) 623-7292.
