California
Redwood
Redwood requires
professional installation, there is a pattern of screw attachment
that must be followed
to the letter! If your contractor doens't know what the pattern is
your decking will
be ruined during the first year of seasonal weather changes.
Southern
Yellow Pine
A very hearty
pine that stains well and holds up over time.

Ipe [Brazilian Walnut]
We are again offering
Ipe, the quality control and allergy issues have been eliminated. Unfortunately,
Garapa
will not be offered
again. Ipe can be installed in 3/4" or 1" thick decking. We will be using
3" screws for installation
as all hidden
fasteners have failed our standard testing. Plugs are available as an option
to hide the screws.

The Swiss Avenue
Historical District's 2009 home show in Dallas featured this home where
we built a two
story Ipe deck. From what we heard it was the hit of the show. The project
was
featured in the
March 2010 issue of Professional Deck Builder You can see a copy of the
article here.
