Ipe decking is one of the best decking money can buy. This wood is naturally fire-resistant, scratch-resistant, bug-resistant and unlike most synthetic products, stays cooler in hot weather and does not support mold growth. Ipe is one of the hardest and densest woods in the world.
Benefits:
Ipe was tested by the U.S. Naval Research Laboratory for its resistance to termites. To test the wood, they put the Ipe underground for 15 years. It resisted all termite attacks for the entire period. There is no other wood in the world that has been able to duplicate this result.
Ipe is one of the top 10 hardest kinds of wood in the world according to the Janka hardness test. Combine that with the resistance to bugs, splinters, decay and mold and you find that mother nature has made the perfect wood for outdoor use such as decking.
Ipe Lumbers come in many sizes and can be adjusted in accordance with customer’s demand. This lumber comes with the light to dark olive brown color with a little greenish caste. With often lighter or darker streaks. You can use this lumber for the construction of different kinds of furniture. It can also be used for construction such as decking, flooring or some sort of industrial use.
Additional Benefits:
I needed a replacement part for an older Marvin window. Eric and the young lady in the receiving department were able to help me find the part that I needed. I had also recently ordered a part for a different Marvin door and Truitt and White was able to order the parts that I needed. I've dealt with other suppliers in the past and the customer service here is "heads and shoulders" above the others.
Richard M Alameda,CAThe Truitt & White service team was amazing! They were friendly, professional and very easy to work with. I love my patio doors! I would highly recommend them.
LauraTruitt and White is the real thing, a full lumberyard with a huge selection of lumber and plywood you cant find anywhere else, hardware, tools, and tons of custom order fittings, windows and doors and just about everything else you would hope to find at a Building Supply outlet. The staff is very knowledgeable, the yard and store is neat, uncluttered and well organized, and it’s only a very short wait for expert help with building materials sourcing and construction know-how.”
Tony D"The level of service @ Truitt & White is superior! My fiance and I went to several other lumber companies before, looking for interior doors & baseboards. Not a single one could answer our questions or give us general information on different options.
As soon as we walked into Truitt & White, Terrace introduced herself and got right into helping us. Within minutes we had a better idea of what door style we liked. After we left, Terrace sent a follow up email with the door we discussed and has been exceptional at answering our questions, via email, since. We are getting ready to order our Shaker style interior doors and could not be more thrilled!
ZacharyIf you are a homeowner looking for any lumber products, I strongly recommend Truitt and White! They will make your project so much easier! We are first time homeowners in Oakland and will use Truitt and White for all of our projects!
Z. CurlianoTruitt and White's retail store is a hidden gem in Berkeley and I am writing to thank the person who works in the fastener department. A very knowledgeable sales person, which is a rarity in today's retail environment, he took the time to show me deck screws and a counter sinking tool that worked to reduce cam out. As a result of his assistance, I was able to drill and drive the screws into my deck boards. I greatly appreciated his help.
