Reclaimed Barn Wood Flooring

The character of your reclaimed wood floor comes from the combination of species and old growth tight-ring grain patterns, along with the saw marks, nail holes, sapwood, and patina acquired during the wood's life as old growth timber or as a piece of an historic structure. These visually and texturally pleasing character marks, matched with the increased durability of old growth, naturally air dried aged wood, allow our reclaimed floors to take wear well, especially in high traffic areas.

Our authentic reclaimed barn wood will be your project’s key ingredient.

We offer a number of premium quality reclaimed flooring choices.

You choose species, surface finishes, dimensions, and milled profiles.

We regularly carry specialty woods such as reclaimed barn threshing floor, red or white oak, oak fence post, hickory, and heart pine.

Texture Selection

One unique aspect of working with reclaimed wood is the ability to customize the texture of original surfaces depending on the character of flooring you desire. This gives you the freedom to choose a rustic or clean look, while maintaining original and authentic character, unlike anything produced in conventional flooring mills. We offer four surface finish options: True Grit 100% Original, Rustic 50% Original, Natural 25% Original, and Timeless 100% Clean.
