    A: For significantly less hollow "engine noise," the best product is Trex Transcend decking with its proprietary Hidden Fastener system, which typically costs $10-$12 per linear foot.

    The Scrubbable surface and solid, capped composite core of Trex Transcend reduce the hollow drum-like sound common to cheaper boards. For the absolute quietest installation, pair it with a padded underlayment membrane (like Trex® Protect or Deck Silence™), adding $3-$5 per sq. ft.
