CALL USIpe Decks in Los Angeles: Why Ipe wood is the Superior Choice for Decking & Siding
Ipe, often called Brazilian Walnut, is celebrated for its unmatched durability, natural resistance to insects and decay, and breathtaking beauty. This premium tropical hardwood is ideal for a variety of applications, such as decking, siding, pergolas, furniture, outdoor showers and kitchens, privacy walls, cladding, ceilings, and more! Known for its incredible density, ipe wood decking offers a Janka hardness rating significantly higher than other decking materials like cedar, redwood, and even teak, ensuring your structures remain stunning and resilient for years to come. Additionally, ipe boasts a Class A fire rating, equivalent to materials like steel and concrete, making it one of the safest choices for your home or commercial space.
Why Choose LA Decks for Your Ipe Decks & Other Outdoor Projects
Choosing LA Decks for your ipe hardwood installation means partnering with a team of experts with decades of experience working with this premium material. Since our inception, we have specialized in installing ipe decks and other outdoor projects such as pergolas, siding, and ceilings. Given that ipe is one of the densest hardwoods in the world, it is crucial to select a company with the expertise, experience, and tools to ensure precise and professional installation. While conventional woods like cedar, redwood, and pine are commonly used for decking in many American homes and commercial spaces, they are prone to rot and decay, necessitating maintenance every few years. In contrast, when properly installed, ipe can last for decades without the need for repairs. Our skilled in-house team of 40 builders ensures that every installation is executed with precision and care, maximizing the durability and beauty of your ipe wood. Whether it’s a residential deck or a commercial project, we have the expertise to deliver flawless, professional results that enhance your space.
