Coconut Grove Ipe Refurbishing

Professional Ipe (I-P-E) deck refurbishing in Coconut Grove demands a highly specialized approach. With its historic homes, mature tree canopies, waterfront properties, and constant humidity, Coconut Grove presents unique challenges for maintaining and restoring exotic hardwood decks.

For over 20 years, we’ve restored Ipe decks for luxury residences, waterfront estates, and architect-driven properties throughout South Florida.

Coconut Grove decks are exposed to a combination of:

• Salt air from Biscayne Bay 
• Persistent humidity 
• Heavy shade from mature trees
• Limited airflow beneath decks
   

These conditions accelerate surface graying, organic growth, and moisture retention if Ipe decks are not maintained correctly. Many decks are damaged by well-intentioned but improper cleaning methods, including excessive pressure washing and incorrect sealers.

Our Coconut Grove Ipe specialists understand how to restore hardwood decks without compromising structural integrity or surface density, ensuring long-term performance in this demanding environment.

Every Coconut Grove Ipe deck restoration project follows a carefully controlled process tailored to shaded and waterfront conditions.

We remove organic growth, airborne contaminants, and surface oxidation while preserving the natural oils and fibers of the Ipe.

Targeted sanding smooths raised grain and weathering without over-cutting the dense hardwood surface.

We rebalance the wood’s natural color and prepare the surface for uniform oil absorption.

A penetrating oil system formulated for exotic hardwoods is applied to protect against moisture intrusion, UV exposure, and salt air.

This process restores the deck’s appearance while reinforcing its resistance to Coconut Grove’s climate.
