IPE Boat Dock Decking, Restoration, and Repair on Lake Austin & Lake Travis
​At Austin Aquatic Services, we specialize in providing premium IPE boat dock decking, IPE restoration, and IPE repair services for waterfront properties on Lake Austin and Lake Travis. Known for its unmatched beauty, durability, and natural resistance to the elements, IPE wood is a top choice for homeowners who want a stunning and long-lasting dock that can withstand the unique challenges of lakefront living.
Why Choose IPE for Your Boat Dock?
IPE wood is one of the most sought-after materials for dock decking due to its extreme durability, natural resistance to decay, and ability to handle harsh weather conditions. It’s often referred to as Brazilian Walnut and is considered one of the most durable hardwoods available.
​
Key Benefits of IPE Dock Decking:
​
-
Exceptional Durability: IPE is incredibly dense and resistant to rot, mold, insect damage, and warping, making it perfect for the high-moisture environment of lakefront properties.
-
Natural Beauty: With its rich brown tones and fine grain, IPE adds a natural, luxurious aesthetic to any dock.
-
Low Maintenance: While IPE does require periodic care to maintain its natural color, it’s highly resistant to weathering and can last for decades with minimal maintenance.
-
Eco-Friendly: IPE wood is sourced from sustainable forests, ensuring an environmentally friendly option for homeowners looking to enhance their waterfront property.
Whether you're building a new dock or upgrading your existing one, our expert team can help you design and install the perfect IPE dock to complement your waterfront home.

Should You Repair or Replace Your Dock?
If you notice one of these signs early on in an isolated part of your dock, we can likely replace just that portion of your dock — one rotting beam, or one rusted roof panel. But if the issue is present throughout the dock and threatens its structural integrity, you may need complete dock replacement. When you aren’t sure, call Austin Aquatic Services.
