How AZEK Compares with Ipe

Decks By Kiefer is best known for premium Ipe decks and generally considers Ipe the better material. As an experienced AZEK deck builder in New Jersey, we also recommend AZEK decking for homeowners who value simpler upkeep more than Ipe’s natural character and premium feel.

  • Choose AZEK when easier upkeep matters most
  • Choose Ipe for natural grain and rich color
  • Consider how each surface fits your home’s character
  • Discuss how each material will age outside
  • Review cleaning expectations before making a decision
  • Ask which material best suits your property
  • Choose with clear expectations about each option
