Important Information About Your Timber Materials and Warranty

You are about to start your dream project! A high-end decking patio is usually built only once. To ensure you get the absolute finest finish and maintain your full product warranty, laying down the correct foundation is essential.

Make sure you work exclusively with the recommended installation materials. This prevents warping, rotting, and unnecessary surface hairline splits, ensuring you enjoy your project for a lifetime. As the Hardwood Discount specialist, you are in safe hands—we supply only the finest quality materials for you!

The Right Base: Foundation & Subframe

Without a solid subframe, even the finest Ipé timber will fail. Always use hardwood foundation post supports (40 x 40mm) for ground anchoring, combined with matching Ipé subframe joists (40 x 60mm) to create a perfectly stable sub-structure.

Optimal Comfort for Bare Feet: Smooth Planed Ipé Timber

Nothing beats the feeling of warm, natural wood beneath your feet on a sunny day. Where stone paving tiles become too hot to handle and cheaper timbers split, Ipé offers a unique luxury experience:

• Splinter-Free Surface: Due to the exceptionally high density and fine grain pattern of the wood, the chance of splinter formation in Ipé is practically non-existent.
• Silky Smooth Texture: The boards undergo premium surface planing, leaving the timber feeling naturally as smooth as an interior wood floor.
• Natural Temperature Control: Ipé absorbs heat beautifully, ensuring the patio surface remains comfortable to walk on even in direct, intense sunlight.

How Do You Build Your Decking Patio?

Want to know the finest way to secure the boards, which joist spaces to maintain, how to achieve a flawless finish, or which specific tools to use?

Check out our comprehensive step-by-step guide for a professional DIY result:

Our Timber Gradings: Select Your Quality Level

Not every board of Ipé is identical. At Hardwood Discount, we adhere to two (2) strict timber selection gradings. This current product page features our Premium Quality range. If you prefer our Premium A-Grade choice, please select our alternative (slightly higher tier) decking boards. Go to Premium A-Grade Decking >

Please remember that timber is a completely natural product; no single board is 100% identical in colour or texture, which is exactly where the raw charm of hardwood lies. Due to cutting waste and natural variations on site, we always advise ordering slightly over. If you place your order using our automated calculator assistant, you do not need to add extra yourself; you will automatically receive 10% more than your net dimension requirements.

Securing your deck borders: Avoid loose overhangs. A decking patio must be securely anchored on all four sides with a robust perimeter frame (using timber or concrete edge curbs).
Locking your boards down: Secure perimeter boards with extra screws driven diagonally into the groove profile (ensure you pre-drill first). This stops natural timber movements or joint shifting from straining the hidden clip system. Both edge frame borders and locking fixing actions are essential and mandatory practices to enjoy a flawless patio deck for decades.

How to Order Your Project?

Ordering is straightforward per square metre (m²). You can also order individual custom board pieces. Alternatively, use our interactive online decking calculator to perfectly configure your full timber build list in 5 simple stages.

• Choose Your Length: We highly advise selecting a single length size for your project (e.g. exclusively 150cm boards or combining with 120cm). Running uniform lengths significantly simplifies your structural layout.
• Easy to Handle: Our pre-cut sizes are perfectly proportioned to fit easily up tight staircases or via construction lifts up to apartment balconies and roof gardens.
• Random Pattern or Staggered Jointing: Thanks to the end-to-end tongue-and-groove profile, you are not strictly limited to joining board ends directly over a joist support (free-jointing pattern). However, for maximum underlying stability, we recommend a standard brick-staggered pattern where end connections sit squarely on a joist frame.

Getting Started with our Decking Configurator Tool: 5 Stages to Your Dream Ipé Patio

Our smart estimator tool lets you plan your complete decking project effortlessly. Step through our layout workflow to secure flawless results with minimal waste.

Stages 1 & 2: Define Your Board Direction and Footprint Dimensions

Specify inside the tool how you prefer to layout your surface timbers: will the boards run along the width or down the length of your patio floor?

Why this matters: Your board orientation dictates exactly how many subframe joists are needed and defines how installation cutting waste is assessed. Choosing your layout pattern smartly can save you substantial outlays on excess timber offcuts and core materials.

Stage 3: Select Your Preferred Decking Profile

Select the timber board style matching your target design and budget. The tool automatically accounts for the precise individual board face dimensions and applies the correct spacing margins needed for natural ventilation.

Stage 4: Add Subframe Framing and Foundation Anchor Support

A long-lasting decking patio relies entirely on a rugged sub-structure. In this stage, you choose the fundamental parts for your subframe build:

• Subframe Joists: The heavy-duty structural joist beams supporting your surface decking.
• Foundation Posts: Engineered post supports for maximum ground anchoring and framework levelling.
• Weed Membrane: Crucial landscape fabric to suppress unwanted weed growth up through your board joints.

Stage 5: Surface Trims, Perimeters, and Hardware Fasteners

Add the final expert touches to your order list for a polished, professional finish:

• Perimeter Borders: Choose a clean border trim out of matching hardwood or concrete to securely edge and clamp down your deck frame.
• Screws and Fixing Clips: The estimator analyzes your exact project surface size (m²) to deliver the correct quantity of hardware clips.
• Timber Sealing Oil: Add our premium exterior timber oil to preserve your product warranty, protect the warm wood hues, and control natural weathering.
