Ten Reasons Why Reclaimed Wood Never Goes Out of Style

Still wondering whether or not reclaimed wood is right for you?  If so, I invite you to take a look at the top 10 reasons why reclaimed flooring is the product of choice for distinguished building design professionals and homeowners alike:

1. There are a wide range of contractor prices from $4 a square foot and up.
2. There isn’t a high markup as seen with commonly available wood floors that are put through distribution.
3. Reclaimed wood adds more value to your home and office.
4. You own a piece of history as this is the wood that grew right here in America and was harvested 1800s and early 1900s.
5. How important is quality to you? Heartpine has a rich patina and tighter grain that adds to the beauty and quality of your home or office
6. Have you ever walked into high-end new homes and felt like they all looked the same? Unlike these homes, your reclaimed wood floor will be unique in appearance and character.
7. Heartpine is coined ‘the wood that built America.’ It is durable and stands the test of time. Mt Vernon’s floor is over 250 years old and, even though people walk on it every day, it retains the same alluring beauty as the day it was first installed.
8. Heartpine is harder and more durable than most wood. In fact, is 29% more stable than red oak according to the National Wood Flooring Association (NWFA).
9.  You will leave a legacy. Many reclaimed wood floors have already lasted a hundred years or more, and yours is sure to outlast you and live on for generations.
10.  It’s a natural choice for earth friendly space.
