Reclaimed Wood Flooring
The finest wood in the world is sculpted by the elements of nature. Wood is reclaimed from mills, factories, tobacco barns, and even from the bottoms of lakes and rivers for it’s timeless beauty and ageless charm. Many reclaimed products come from century old textile mills and factories built during the Industrial Revolution using 300-400 year old Longleaf Heart Pine.
Other types of wood comes from fascinating historical structures-harnessing the beauty and strength of wood that has been naturally aged, distressed, and weathered, making flooring that is exclusive and unique. The common thread is that all of these structures were going to be torn down and their materials discarded. By reclaiming the wood, we not only create beautiful flooring, but preserve historically significant artifacts that would otherwise be destroyed. Reclaimed flooring is proof that “Beauty comes with age.”
