Reclaimed Wood Flooring is our mainstay. Nobody in the industry has more experience in this product nor a more efficient milling system.
Along with all the partners in our group, we take down buildings all over the country from Old Whiskey Storage facilities to New York Apartment Buildings to Dairy Farms in Washington and Bridges in Texas... you name it and we've probably done it.
Start to finish we control the quality and costs. You WILL NOT find a better product nor a more reliable supply source anywhere - period!

We carefully dismantle each structure by hand, saving nearly 100% of the material. Even the bricks and tin roofing sheets are salvaged. With many of the buildings having been put together with bolts rather than nails, there is very little damage to the material during the dismantling phase. The larger beams are usually sold as-is and the other material is milled into flooring or used to create furniture of the highest quality.

The majority of the Reclaimed Flooring and Beams you buy from us come from buildings that were erected in the 1850's through about the 1920's. These buildings have been standing vacant for years in many cases. Buildings from this era were built with OLD GROWTH TIMBERS, which means the trees used for the lumber may have been 300-500 years old. At the time, there was no shortage of these trees.
The warmth of reclaimed wood, whether in the form of flooring, exposed beams or what have you enhances the beauty, value and character of any home.
