Hand-made kitchens from our finest reclaimed timber
Posted on: 8th Aug
For over 6 months now we have been sourcing and providing reclaimed timber and flooring for our friends over at www.trunkreclaimed.co.uk, who in our opinion are some of the most reliable, creative craftsmen we’ve had the pleasure to meet. For strong, portable & guaranteed bespoke kitchen units we would recommend only the guys at Trunk. It’s nice to see our reclaimed pine, cedar, elm, oak timbers and flooring revived to produce suck quality, functioning units.
Artists Industrial loft space, Shoreditch, London
Posted on: 8th Aug
For this well established artist and photographer we were asked to replace badly damaged mixed pine and oak flooring with a similar economical alternative. Feb this year we reclaimed a one off batch of heart pine strip flooring from a similar industrial space in the north of England, just the trick. We prepared a sample and within no time at all our reclaimed heart pine strip flooring, was helping to rejuvenate an empty space into a home, an artist’s home. Remember, your wood floor is your room’s canvas, choose it wisely, choose it reclaimed.
6500 Sq ft for the UK’s largest AVEDA Salon & Spa. Leicester
Posted on: 7th Aug
At 6500 Sq ft, this is the UK’s largest AVEDA Salon & Spa. 1 Bath House Lane, Leicester. In keeping with the brands international identity, for this salon & spa, 6500 Sq ft of mixed width, reclaimed Colombian pine floorboards where used in their natural state. Once cleaned of potential bacteria and after a good soaking, the boards where then varnished with 4 coats of industrial strength Leyland varnish. Scrapes, paint, nail holes and fine cracks where all part of feature. Recently we have seen more of this rustic style of interior design for shops, bars and restaurants. Unfortunately we were unable to provide for the Jamie Oliver restaurants earlier this year due to time restrictions, they were looking for a similar rustic board to be used as wall cladding.

Boutique coffee shop with live music and art shows
Suburb Coffee shop, Deansgate, Manchester. Voted the best coffee shop in Manchester by Citylife 2006. The Reclaimed Flooring Co supplied over 150 sq meters of distressed, rustic heart pine floor boards cut from 7×3 reclaimed Victorian joists. We worked into the rough side of the joist by hand cleaning, scrubbing and sanding, we then waxed and brushed the boards to finish. The boards were perfect for our clients design ideas and natural theme, a nice backdrop coffee, old leather, artwork and old wooden chairs. Not forgetting the display cabinets, counter and counter top were all constructed from our very own joists, who would have thought?

500 mtr sq for http://www.ct-architects.co.uk renovation
This project goes to show that quality reclaimed pine floor boards can be used for more than just flooring. We would also like to point out here the reason people like reclaimed floorboards, the reason is simple, the reason is character and originality. Occasionally, worried customers turn their nose up at the cracks, the dents, the marks, the imperfection, we ask these people to looks again. Effective design and reclaimed pine mill boards doesn’t get better than this.

Complete overhall of 5 large mill floors
The Reclaimed Flooring Co provides an established Mcr construction company with sufficient reclaimed flooring to cover 5 floors of a 19th century converted cotton mill. We managed to supply over 100 000 linear ft of 100 yr old pine boards. They varied in consistency for each floor, ranging from 5-7 inch wide and 21- 22mm thick. Our clients choice of pine from reclaimed joists was an economical and hard wearing solution to their problem of finding 100 000 ft of sustainable flooring. Our clients have also been congratulated by Mcr city council on their choice of choosing reclaimed timber over new wood or carpet. Infact our eco friendly reclaimed boards may have secured this company with similar large scale projects in the near future.
