There are many things to consider before you decide to build an IPE deck. Here are a few of them to help you out:

Form & Function: Determine what it is you really want or need from your new deck. Are you looking for a place to entertain outdoors, a private oasis, or an extension of living space? Reflecting on the form and function of your new deck will help facilitate the design process.
Budget: Dreaming about your new deck will surely inspire grand ideas with a no-holds-barred attitude. Consider this when thinking about costs: a simple deck with limited features can cost anywhere from $30-35 per square foot (depending on many factors). Additional features, such as pergolas, fences,railings, stairs, gazebos, and fire pits can add to the budget. We've seen all kinds of shapes and sizes of decks in our business and we can assure you, even the most simplest in design are stunning additions to a home.
Size: Your new deck should complement your backyard space, not overwhelm it. Think about the layout of your backyard, the currently utilized space, whether you want the deck to be attached to your home, or set apart from it.
Materials: When considering which wood decking material you should choose, remember the following: it should aesthetically complement your home and your personal style, offer long-term value and be as maintenance-free as possible.
