Jekyll Island Convention Center

Antique/Reclaimed heart pine looks good in any setting, from residential to commercial.  Our antique/reclaimed heart pine was just selected for the Jekyll Island Convention Center.  They decided to use a mixture of our choice and tavern grades; showcasing both the formal and rustic character of antique/reclaimed heart pine.  Character that fits perfectly with old-time charm of Jekyll Island.  Next time you’re on vacation on Jekyll Island, be sure to stop by the convention center to check out our Antique/Reclaimed heart pine.

Reclaimed Heart Pine - John Deere

Recently, we reclaimed some really dense Heart Pine from an old structure just outside of Kansas City.  The building has been used by several businesses over the past 130 years; most recently as a warehouse for John Deere.  Most of the timbers are 6” x 14” and are producing some gorgeous, character-laden 5 1/8” wide plank flooring.  We will only yield about 15,000 sq. ft. of flooring from this project; most of which will be offered as a prefinished wood floor. 

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. 

Huffman Mill Pike

We just finished up about 15,000' of this awesome reclaimed oak plank floor.  It was salvaged from a horse farm off Huffman Mill Pike outside of Lexington, KY.  It was a ton of work but the finished product is beautiful and well worth the effort.  Because of it's natural variations no two planks are alike, each one having a different character, color, and surface.  Michael @ Cottrell photograghy was nice enough to take some great photos that we can show you soon but for now here is the before and after.
