Ipe & Hardwood Decks

Ipe and other dense hardwoods are among the toughest decking you can buy. They resist rot, insects and wear, and the deep brown color with fine grain gives a decked space a luxurious look. They are heavy and hard, so installation takes patience: pre-drilling, stainless fasteners and sharp tools are the rule.

We install ipe and hardwood decks for homeowners in Nashville and across Middle Tennessee. We source quality boards, install them with hidden or face fasteners, seal the ends and apply an oil finish if you want to keep the rich color.
