The History of our Softwoods -
The majority of our softwood species come from old industrial buildings that have outlived their usefulness and are staring square at a wrecking ball. Rather than see these sometimes lovely old structures be simply razed by machines, we pay for them to be dismantled and then use the timbers to create our heart pine and mixed softwoods floors.

Some of the places we've rescued wood from have interesting backgrounds, such as the last brewery in Philadelphia, the largest textile mill in North Carolina and the pieces of the old harbor in Baltimore. We're always happy to find clients with an interest in the origins of their floors and will gladly provide you with a synopsis of its origins.
