Ipe Hardwood Decking
Ipe is a highly sought-after deck wood, but it takes an experienced installer to work with its unique density. MG Construction & Decks are your Ipe experts.
Beauty & Toughness
Also known as Brazilian Walnut, Ipe combines the elegance of a high-end wood with performance that withstands time, traffic, and tough climates.
Unique Durability
Ipe’s tight grain pattern and natural density makes it resistant to scratches and wear, keeping your deck stunning even in high-use areas.

Applications or Benefits
Ipé is built by nature for extreme conditions. As one of the densest hardwoods on earth, it naturally resists rot, insects, and wear — and it carries a Class A fire rating, the same class as steel and concrete, making it a smart choice for LA’s fire-prone hillsides.
In Southern California’s climate an Ipé deck keeps its rich color with occasional oiling — or weathers to an elegant silver-gray if left natural. And because Ipé retains less heat than composites, it stays comfortable underfoot all summer—perfect for pool decks and patios.

Ipé Decking FAQs
How long does an Ipé deck last?
Ipé is one of the densest hardwoods in the world, and an Ipé deck can last for decades — often cited up to ~75 years — with basic care. It’s effectively a lifetime-of-the-home material. Left alone it weathers to an elegant silver-gray; a UV-protective oil once a year keeps the deep brown color. No staining or sealing required.
Ipé vs composite — which should I choose?
Ipé is a dense tropical hardwood prized for its rich grain and exceptional durability; it’s a premium natural-wood choice that needs periodic oiling to hold its color. Composite gives a similar high-end look with almost no maintenance. If you want real wood and will maintain it, Ipé is stunning; if you want the look with zero upkeep, composite wins. We build both.
