Coral Gables Ipe Refurbishing

Professional Ipe (I-P-E) deck refurbishing in Coral Gables requires more than basic cleaning or oiling. At Florida Deck Refurbishing, we specialize exclusively in Ipe deck refinishing, restoration, and long-term maintenance for high-end residential and commercial properties throughout Coral Gables and surrounding South Florida communities.

With over 20 years of experience working with exotic hardwoods, our team understands how Coral Gables’ unique combination of intense sun, shaded courtyards, dense landscaping, and coastal moisture impacts Ipe decking. When refinished properly, Ipe does not fail — it outperforms nearly every other decking material available.

Many Ipe decks in Coral Gables lose their appearance not because of age, but due to improper maintenance and incorrect restoration methods. Aggressive pressure washing, generic sealers, and rushed refinishing can permanently damage the wood surface.

Our Coral Gables Ipe deck specialists understand:

• The density and oil content of Ipe hardwood
• Grain-safe cleaning technique 
• Moisture retention caused by shaded patios and loggias 
• UV exposure differences between covered and open decks
   

This knowledge allows us to restore Ipe decks without stripping their natural strength or longevity.

Every Coral Gables Ipe deck restoration project follows a controlled, methodical process designed to deliver consistent, high-end results.

We remove environmental buildup, organic growth, and oxidation while protecting the hardwood fibers from damage.

Light, even sanding corrects raised grain, surface checking, and uneven wear without over-aggressively cutting into the wood.

A professional brightening and neutralization step restores Ipe’s natural tone and prepares the surface for oil penetration.

We apply a premium penetrating oil specifically formulated for dense exotic hardwoods like Ipe, allowing deep absorption and long-term protection.

This process restores the deck’s appearance while preserving the integrity of the wood — not masking problems with surface coatings.
