Hamilton Brothers Tim-Br Mart

Otter Creek is pleased to announce that effective January 1st/2012 that Tim-Br Mart in Glen Huron, Ontario is a new dealer store for the Diamond Essence Ipe flooring tile. A deck is the ideal way to expand your living space and enhance your entire property. For a fraction of the cost of building an indoor room, decks provide entertainment space and three-season living. Not only can the addition of a new deck increase the enjoyment that you get from your home, it can also increase the resale value. Only your imagination and your comfort level with doing it yourself limit your deck design.

Diamond Essence is a high quality Ipe flooring designed to cover any exterior hard surface, transforming it into a wood outdoor floor. With a modular easy to install interlocking system, the carriage that supports the Ipe hardwood is made from weatherproof recycled products, designed to withstand extreme weather conditions.

Perfect for patios, balconies, walkways, pools, decking refurbishments and entrances. Diamond Essence is ideal for use where conventional decking would not be suitable, such as balconies and rooftops.

Diamond Essence outdoor flooring is made from nature’s best tropical hardwood species, Ipe (Brazilian Walnut), with ecological sustainable forestry and recycled materials. This tropical hardwood is simply the best wood for exteriors due to its natural strength and durability to the outdoor environment.

Otter Creek is seeking interested companies who may wish to become a dealer for the Diamond Essence Ipe flooring tile. To date the company has 10 stores marketing and promoting the product. The company currently stocks container quantities at its warehouse outside of Toronto, Canada.

What is the difference between Ipe decking tiles and random length Ipe decking?

August 19th, 2011

Installing Ipe Decking Tile Over Existing Surface

The difference is in the construction, installation and use of the products. The Ipe decking tile comes in 12″x12″ and 12″x24″ sizes and random length Ipe comes from 6ft to 16ft. Random length Ipe decking attaches to the top of existing 2×6 joists. The Ipe decking tiles get installed over existing older deck surfaces such as pressure treated, cedar or any older deck surface that you wish to cover up because its no longer looks nice or no longer fits the landscape surroundings. The random length Ipe decking is not condusive to using in applications such as balconies or rooftops as its  just not as convenient to get the random length product onto the job site. The Ipe decking tiles come in boxes which can be easily stored at job site and also can be handled very easily by one person. Random length Ipe must be installed using face mounted fasteners or hidden deck fasteners where there is no required fasteners to install the Ipe decking tiles as they simply snap and lock into place which will resultin hundreds of dollars of cost savings vs standard face mounting or hidden deck fastener installations. Random length Ipe decking will cost somewhere between $8.00 and $10.00 per sqft for a 5/4×6 deck board and another $3.00 to $4.00 to install including labor and fastening supplies. The Ipe decking tiles sell retail for between $13.00 and $15..00  per sqft which is slightly higher vs random length Ipe, but where you can install, andthe cost and ease of installing, the Ipe decking tiles provides a much greater advantage over random length decking.

The Ipe Diamond Essence Ipe decking tiles can be purchased at Canadian Retail Stores or online at www.myocstore.com

Can I use the Ipe decking tiles for steps, stairs or edges?

August 16th, 2011

Ipe Decking Tile

Ipe decking tiles can only be used for steps or stairs if they are screwed securely to the base of the stairway or if you glue them with “Concrete Glue”.  Additionally, end capping should be fixed to the edge of the tile to hide the plastic base. For the vertical edges transitioning down to the next step or to ground level, we recommend detaching the wood from the plastic base and affixing it to the surface with a quality adhesive designed for wood, and also designed for the surface you are attaching it to. You can also cover the edge of the carriage on the step above with this piece of wood. If you have a radius or curved edge that you need to cover, we recommend using bender board (available at hardware or lumber stores) that closely matches the color of the wood tile.  A contractor should fix any extremely hard installations.  
The Diamond Essence Ipe decking tiles can be purchased at Canadian Retail Stores or online at www.myocstore.com
