Tongue and Groove (T&G) Porch Decking (Tigerwood Shown)
Pregrooved Decking (Ipe Shown - DeckWise® Hidden Deck Fastener Method)
DESCRIPTION
For traditional outdoor, uncovered decks.
Our standard and pregrooved decking are perfect choices for outdoor applications.
When installing outdoor decking, leave a gap between deck boards of 3/32” for
air-dried material or 1/4” gap for kiln-dried material. The difference in gap spacing
ensures the decking has room to expand and contract, depending on the material
used and the environment where it is installed.
For use with covered porches, sunrooms, & patios only.
Is it time to replace your worn out porch? Our precision-milled tongue & groove
decking creates a seamless, beautiful surface ideal for covered porches or sunrooms.
Once installed, T&G decking is similar to interior hardwood flooring because it leaves
no gap spacing between the boards. So forget about only enjoying your deck during
the summer; give yourself a personal retreat you can escape to anytime of the year.

LIFESPAN SCALE
ECO-FRIENDLY
How many years pass before you have to replace your deck?
Lifespan charts are based on the proven performance of
exotic hardwood decking, regardless of the environment.
Unlike chemically treated wood and composite decking,
Advantage Decking™ does not require constant maintenance, sanding, or refinishing. The benefits you receive are
all 100% natural.
HARDNESS SCALE
TERMITE PROTECTION
The ability to withstand foot traffic, falling objects, and pets
will vary by species of wood. Teak decking has long been the
benchmark for exotic outdoor decking, which all Advantage
Decking™ species far exceed.
All of the decking options available to you are naturally
resistant to termites. Did you know the US Naval Laboratory determined it would take 15+ years for termites to bore
through a buried piece of Ipe?
BENDING STRENGTH SCALE
MOLD & MILDEW REPELLING
The ability of a single deck board to resist breakage when
subjected to an external force that causes it to bend.
The natural oils and density in Advantage Decking™ reduce
the chance of both mold and fungal growth.
DECKING FOR ALL CLIMATES
FLAME SPREAD RESISTANT
From the frozen tundra of Green Bay to the hot and humid air
of Miami, every species of Advantage Decking™ is naturally
primed for optimal performance. With their natural oils, cell
structure, and tight grain, our hardwoods can handle decades
of freeze/thaw cycles without any required maintenance.
All species of Advantage Decking™ have up to a class A
Rating for flame spread. Unlike softer woods and composites
that melt or spread fire rapidly, the density of our hardwoods
help contain any exposed flame around its point of origin.
This benefit makes Advantage Decking™ a great option for
homes in dry brush areas, and other fire-prone regions.
CONVENIENT ORDERING PROCESS
HOW MUCH DECKING MATERIAL WILL I NEED? - Calculate Your Deck Size

where you’ll find a handy calculator to convert your deck’s square footage to linear feet. Linear footage is how decking
is measured, so once you have that number you’re ready to get your custom quote!
HOW MUCH DOES EACH OPTION COST? - Get a Deck Quote
Once you know how much decking you need, getting an accurate quote for Advantage Decking™ is easy. Simply call us,
or visit AdvantageLumber.com® and fill out the convenient online quote form. All of our decking options are listed on the
quote form. You can also get pricing on products such as hidden fasteners, railing, lighting, and other decking accessories.

our customers the widest variety of FSC® certified wood decking. When the FSC® certification is included with our wood
products, it provides the most credible link between responsible production and consumption.
When you buy FSC® certified decking, lumber, or flooring from AdvantageLumber.com® you can be sure you are purchasing

How Do We Help?
When you buy exotic decking from a reputable company that practices responsible forestry management, you are saving
the forest by putting real value on the timber.
While it may seem unbelievable that land owners burn forests that contain valuable resources, it is unfortunately more
profitable for them to clear cut trees than to go through the bureaucracy of obtaining the environmental surveys, forest
management plans, and permits required to harvest even a few trees.
Sustainable forestry management annually saves tens of thousands of acres from being burnt for agricultural cash cropping,
charcoal production, mineral extraction, and cattle grazing. By selectively harvesting a few trees per acre, we ensure forests

will not only survive, but remain for many generations to come.
