Questions
How do I calculate decking material requirements?
Multiply deck length by width for square footage, then use our online calculator to convert to linear feet based on board width.
What hardwood species are best for coastal climates?
Ipe and Cumaru offer superior resistance to saltwater environments with natural oils protecting against decay and warping.
Can I get samples before ordering?
Yes, most products offer free sample options through our website for material evaluation prior to purchase.
How should exotic hardwoods be maintained?
Annual cleaning with wood brightener maintains appearance. Oiling enhances color retention but isn't required for structural integrity.
What shipping options are available?
We ship container quantities worldwide via sea freight and offer direct delivery to residential/commercial locations through specialized carriers.
