Products & Materials

Reclaimed Creations’ core inventory features authentic barn wood siding in chestnut, pine, and oak varieties, ranging from rustic weathered gray to rich brown patinas developed over 100+ years of exposure. Their structural timber selection includes massive hand-hewn beams, original floor joists, and industrial factory timbers, many featuring mortise and tenon joinery and traditional carpenter marks that showcase 19th-century craftsmanship.

For flooring applications, they stock wide-plank heart pine, antique chestnut, and reclaimed oak in various widths and grades, all kiln-dried and ready for installation. Live-edge slabs from salvaged trees provide unique surfaces for countertops, tables, and custom millwork, while their collection of reclaimed doors, window frames, and architectural elements adds authentic period details to restoration and new construction projects.
