Deckorator’s Venture 1×8

STARTING AT: $69.60

Wider Venture board for trim, fascia, and framing. Durable composite core with a low-maintenance, scratch-resistant cap.

For the installation

Overview

Deckorators Venture 1×8 offers the same value and performance as the 1×6, but in a wider board. It works well for fascia, picture framing, and deck skirting.

With a 7.25-inch face and 1-inch thickness, this board reduces seams and helps speed up installation. This makes it a great choice for detail-heavy areas.

The board uses a wood-plastic composite core for strength. A three-sided polyethylene cap helps protect it from fading, moisture, mold, and surface scratches. As a result, it holds up well in outdoor conditions.

IPE DECKING LOS ANGELES REVIEW

I started buying IPE from Brazilian Lumber over one year ago before the vendor opened the California location (i.e. where I am located). There were some issues related to the lumber (IPE), BUT the vendor made sure that all was taken care of and that I was happy. I mentioned “the issues” not to say that they product is bad, but rather to stressed out that the vendor provides superb service. No matter what you do, the problems may happen. Important is how such situations are handled. I was working with Luis, great guy to work with. I recommend this vendor.

I upgraded my backyard with Ipe deck tiles for my patio. It was definitely an investment, but it’s turned out to be worth every penny. The tiles were easy to install and the finished product is not only beautiful, but also incredibly durable and functional. I would highly recommend Ipe deck tiles to anyone looking to create a beautiful and long-lasting outdoor space.

Such a great find! I needed my side gate upgraded and Ed Shubin was so helpful in getting me just the right piece of lumber. He knew exactly what was needed according to my specifications! The lumber was top notch and I couldn’t be happier. Thank you Ed!

Roy and team have been amazing! We got high quality ipe and cumaru wood from them for our backyard fence and deck. The wood is just phenomenal. The team is also extremely professional – always responding to our questions, providing helpful tips, and finding ways to make our project work within budget and schedule. Highly, highly recommend!

The best place to get Brazilian hardwood that I\’ve found anywhere in California or online. The customer service is very good, the reps are attentive to you upon arrival and they are very knowledgeable. The quality of wood is superb and the pricing is cheaper than I can find anywhere else.
