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

Moffatt & Powell new Canadian Dealer for Diamond Essence.

May 25th, 2011

Moffatt & Powell Rona

Otter Creek is pleased to announce that Moffat & Powell Rona in London, Ontario is a new dealer for the Diamond Essence Ipe decking tile as of June 1st, 2011.

Moffatt & Powell Limited was a partnership formed in February 1956 by J. Keith Moffatt and Melvin Powell in the village of Watford. The core business was selling lumber, cement and coal. This trade had a sound footing established by Hiram Moffatt (Keith’s father) who had been operating the J.H. Moffatt enterprise at the same location since 1939. With a staff of four, including the two owners, the business flourished in small business quarters serving the farming and building communities in Lambton County and Sarnia.

In November 1960, a new showroom and warehouse facility was constructed at the present location, 494 Front Street in Watford. The Company continued to expand with the opening of a new and larger retail home centre and lumberyard on April 15, 1968, at 540 Albert Street in Strathroy. The successful operation of this Branch funded the third location on Hwy. 8-east of Mitchell, on November 1, 1973.

In January 1982, a merger was concluded between D.M. Powell Limited in Strathroy and Moffatt & Powell Limited. This increased the total number of stores to 5, with the Caradoc Street location in Strathroy and the anticipated opening of a branch at 1290 Trafalgar Street in London. Immediately after the merger, the Goderich and Exeter locations were acquired from the Conklin Home Centre Company.

David Powell purchased the shareholdings of Melvin Powell in Moffatt & Powell Limited and is today the partner of J. Keith Moffatt.

In March 1984, Moffatt & Powell Limited purchased the assets of the Harold Warwick Lumber Company at 126 Tillson Avenue, Tillsonburg. This gave the Company additional geographical coverage. With stores strategically located in and around London, the economic hub of southwestern Ontario, we are well situated to serve the needs of our contractor, farmer, commercial, and do-it-yourself (D.I.Y.) customer base.

The current Head Office and store location at 1282 Hyde Park Road was opened in 1996.

In 2006, Moffatt and Powell Limited celebrated their 50th anniversary, culminating with a two day event held at the Western Fair grounds. The first day was focused on trade professionals. On the second day, the traditional builder show was opened to the retail public for the first time, with great success. We at Moffatt and Powell Limited are excited about the opportunities for the future growth of our company and look forward to providing excellent customer service and product value for the next 50 years!
