In addition to the great look of a natural wood deck, tropical hardwoods are highly resistant to rot, decay, insects and other forms of deterioration. There are several varieties of tropical hardwoods to choose from, including Brazilian Ipe, Tiger Wood, Teak and Mahogany. Hardwoods can perform well for 25 to 50 years with proper maintenance.
One of the strongest woods, Ipe is a dense tropical hardwood that is durable enough for any climate and is naturally resistant to rot and decay.
Brazilian Tiger is an extremely rich, beautiful hardwood with a reddish hue and sometimes has a prominent darker grain pattern which gives it a unique look.
Teak is a lighter colored hardwood than Ipe and is also less dense making it lighteer and generally easier to work with. Its color ranges from yellow brown to dark golden brown.
Mahogany is a classic decking look that is always a great fit. It looks great and it’s also less expensive and requires relatively low maintenance compared to other options.
