Landscape with Brazilian Walnut (Ipe) Decking Tile

April 22nd, 2011

Brazilian Walnut (Ipe) Decking and Patio Tile

I have a nice backyard garden and I wanted to incorporate a ground level patio near the gardens so I could enjoy them from closeup. I searched around the Internet for product that would blend in well with my landscape and came across the “Diamond Essence” Ipe decking tile. I asked the supplier to send me a small sample to see how the product looked and when I received it I felt this was the right product for my project. I liked the fact that it can be used on direct ground or concrete surfaces and then tiles were easy to handle and made of top quality wood and other materials. I decided to make a concrete surface and laid the Ipe tiles on top and they lock together using small clips on the sides of the tiles. The hardest thing about the entire project was the concrete construction but the tiles went together in no time. I had my project done in an afternoon and I was very impressed with the final outcome. I showed the tiles to my landscaping company that had done our gardens and they were very impressed with the quality of the product. You can purchase this from a copmpany called Otter Creek from their store called www.myocstore.com . They stock the product in Canada from their warehouse near Toronto and it ships within a few days.

Patio Ipe Decking Tile in Canada

April 11th, 2011

I came across a great product that you can put around your concrete patio to make it look like a Ipe deck. This product is called Diamond Essence Ipe wood decking tile and the tiles lock together to make quick work of installation. The wood strips are made of Ipe which is a Brazilain Walnut and the tiles come in 12×24 and 12×12 sizes with matching moldings such as corner reducers and straight reducers. Brazilian Walnut comes mainly from South America and the manufacturer has created a unique fastening system that allows the tiles to snap together. The manufacturer calls it “Outdoor Wood Flooring” and I must say it’s beautiful and easy to install for the DIY. The tiles are mainly used on patios and balconies to cover up cold concrete surfaces and provide a tropical hardwood deck that is warm to the feet and much nicer to stand on with bare feet. If you would like to check out where to get further information and to pruchase this unique and innovative product please visit www.myocstore.com
