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.

Cutek Green Wood Preservative

Otter Creek is the Canadian Distributor for Cutek Green Wood Preservative. Company officials have received very positive feedback from customers with added interest increasing on a daily basis.

Otter Creek performed many tests with the product prior to bringing the product into its stain and seal lineup. With the harsh Canadian winters and the ever increasing extreme temperatures from hot to cold you need a wood preservative product that can stand up to these conditions, said Robert Abbott, President of the company.

Not all stains and sealers perform in the same manner and customers continue to complian to us that the product they are applying to their deck surface is just not standing up. Its either complains about peeling and cracking or extreme fading. In some rare cases complete breakdown of product has been reported. I must admit that I sometime think its an over reaction to the expectations of customers with the product they are using either by being told by the company that sold the stain or sealer product to them or their understanding of the product they purchased.

No matter which product you purchase and what you are told ALL STAINS with fade over time and reapplication is a fact of life with a wood deck surface and a wood deck will never be totally maintenance free. However, you can purchase products that will reduce and save your deck from continuous maintenance every year and also that will preserve your deck for many years.

You may say I’m trying to be partial to a product our company sells and I can understand people feeling that way BUT this product by far is the best stain, seal and preservative product I have come across EVER.

I’m so confident in this product that if any customer calls and complains the product did not meet with their expectations will refund the product purchase no questions asked.

Weathered Wood Restored with Cutek ProClean

You simply apply Cutek ProClean liberally to a “PRE-WETTED” deck surface with a brush, roller or garden sprayer. Let Cutek ProClean do most of the work by l;etting it dwell on the deck surface for several minutes to several hours, or such time as deemed to be necessary by the test procedure. It may be necessary to scrb stubborn stains moderately with a stiff fiber brush.

Recoating

Following the restoration of the deck surface with Cutek ProClean, it is important to complete the restoration process by coating the timber with Cutek Green . Applying Cutek Green eliminates the need for any future stripping because it will not form a film that will peel off like a varnish. Additionally, it has been specifically designed to maximize the dimensional stability and aesthetic qualities of natural wood, while providing protection against ultraviolet degradation, moisture and biological growth. Always remember that film-forming coatings can peel and may need to be sanded, stripped or scraped when reapplication is necessary.

It is important that the restored wood is completely dry before the application of Cutek Green. All ow 3-4 days of hot, fine drying weather. If unsure, use a moisture meter to measure the residual moisture content of the restored wood to make sure that it is less than 18% before coating.

Cutek ProClean and Cutek Green is available in Canada and the U.S. through Otter Creek and can be ordered by calling 1-800-981-3590

Cutek Green Wood Restoration

There seems to be many cleaning and restoring wood products on the marketplace today but many of them do not seem to work as well as they state they will. Deck cleaning can be a labor of love at the best of times and having to perform this task each spring can be exhausting to say the least. Many decks in Canada are made from Western Red Cedar and I have discovered that most homeowners and contractors are needing a product that can clean and restore the deck surface easily and cost effectively. Cutek Green wood cleaner and restoring product is the best product I have come across in a long time. I like this product because not only does it effectively clean and restore your deck surface but it also has a chemical agent that migrates through the wood that helps prevent against warp and twist of Western Red Cedar decking. The wood preservative that is used migrates through the entire pc of wood and drives out the moisture that exists in the wood cells thus making the wood more stable. Our company Otter Creek  is the Canadian distributor for this product and we would be glad to discuss its benefits in detail with any Canadian or U.S. homeowners and contractors by calling us at 1-800-981-3590 or you can purchase this product at www.myocstore.com
