Charleston Heart Pine

For anybody that thinks Heart Pine Flooring is too soft and won’t last; they need to take a trip to Charleston, SC.  My family and I just got home from a great trip to the area .  We spent a good bit of time downtown ,  enjoying the old homes and buildings.  Almost every restaurant, bar, hotel,  and  home we  visited  had heart pine  floors .  Many of the floors were original ,  dated back around 200 years or so.  The old heart pine floors still look great & should be around for many more generations to come.

Wide Plank Oak

Wide plank oak flooring made from your own trees that were blown down in a tornado?  Yep, we can handle that.   A few weeks ago we processed about 4 truckloads of oak logs that belonged to a long time customer of ours.  His farm in S. GA was hit hard by a tornado late this spring so he sent the usable logs to us thinking that he could use the boards in a hunting lodge on the property.  The 4 truckloads of oak yielded close to 5000 sq. ft. of wide plank oak flooring up to 12” wide.
