A Story in Every Knot and Pore

During the 18th and 19th centuries, many structures in America were built using trees growing on or near the property. At the time, wood was one of the strongest, most affordable, and most abundant building materials available, compelling builders across the nation to construct their homes, barns, factories, and warehouses using any lumber they could find nearby.

For example, before the chestnut blight of 1904, thousands of US farmers on the west coast relied on American Chestnut to build their barns and homes. After the blight destroyed millions of chestnut trees across the country, lumber reclaimed from these structures became one of the most coveted commodities on the market, not only due to its rarity and unique look but also because of the rich history each plank represented.

Reclaimed wood pairs a phenomenal aesthetic and story together without sacrificing strength or durability. That’s why many modern homeowners and designers choose to forgo today’s “typical” composite options in favor of reclaimed wood flooring that reflects nature’s beauty in all its splendor.

At Manomin Resawn Timbers, our lumber comes from the timbers reclaimed from salvaged barns, factories, and warehouses, once-magnificent structures containing decades of history and experiences that spanned many generations. Whether they came from the remains of a steam-powered factory built during the Industrial Revolution or the wreckage of a small barn that sheltered and supported six generations of an American farming family, every order of flooring we provide clients tells a fascinating story.

By implementing these incredible pieces into your project, you can preserve these precious glimmers of history, contributing to the wealth of human experiences and memories they represent with a few of your own. If you’re ready to set your space apart from all others with high-quality, gorgeous flooring that delights and inspires, you’ve come to the right place.

Our Reclamation Wood Flooring Process

  1. De-Nailing

Once our supplier completes an initial round of surface de-nailing, we meticulously extract any remaining nails or metals from the reclaimed boards and timbers. By utilizing metal detector wands and other potent detection tools, our team quickly and safely removes all traces of metal from each shipment of reclaimed materials, transporting them to our kilns afterward for drying.

  1. Kiln Drying

Unlike many recovered wood companies and independent sellers of reclaimed lumber, Manomin Resawn Timbers uses large and powerful kilns to dry our milled lumber until it attains an ideal balance of moisture content. Each board stays strong and stable when exposed to different environmental conditions. This process also prevents shrinkage, making reclaimed wood significantly harder to install properly. Lastly, our kiln drying system eliminates all traces of bugs or larvae living within the wood, guaranteeing that no unwelcome pests gain access to your space.

  1. Milling

Regrettably, most salvaged timbers are severely uneven and warped when first rescued. That’s where our team of seasoned craftspeople comes in. These woodworking professionals use a wide variety of tools, including special saws, planers, joiners, molders, and more, to make these antique boards perfectly flat, straight, and square, creating gorgeous and unique planks that will make your project shine.

4. Installation

While you can install our top-quality reclaimed wood flooring yourself, we recommend working with experienced woodworkers to ensure this process goes as quickly and smoothly as possible. Suppose your project is based in Minnesota or western Wisconsin. In that case, we can connect you with a local professional with the knowledge and expertise to complete your flooring project for a reasonable price.

Our Selection of Reclaimed Wood Flooring

Reclaimed wood flooring is an excellent option for dining rooms, kitchens, living areas, and bedrooms. Moreover, there are many styles of reclaimed wood flooring to choose from. Here’s a brief rundown of each variant we offer to give you a better idea of which will work best in your space.

Antique Ash

Antique Ash is milled from 19th-century barn timbers and is highly durable, making it a great choice for rooms with heavy foot traffic. When Antique Ash wood is finished naturally, its color can range from light blonde to cream with rich, nutty brown hues, creating a cozy patina that will bring your space to life.

Antique Elm

Antique Elmwood is milled from barn timbers dating from 1820 to 1880. This wood is generally a mixture of light tans and striking browns, creating a gorgeous, iridescent shimmer that will grant your floor a beautiful sheen.

Antique Oak

Antique Oak is milled from a mix of red and white oak barn wood and features a fascinating contrast between warm hues and gold tones. This product offers a rich patina only found in antique wood, giving your flooring a one-of-a-kind look.

Antique Wormy Chestnut

As a result of the chestnut blight of 1904, high-quality chestnut wood is exceptionally rare. Our Antique Chestnut flooring lends an attractive, unique look through its earthy tones and compelling patina, making it a beautiful addition to any project.

Reclaimed Douglas Fir Vertical Grain Floor

Rescued from timber structures built during the 19th century, this lumber produces a stunning look and highlights a vertical grain aesthetic that will set your space apart from all others.

Moreover, this flooring undergoes a unique revitalization process called skip planing, leaving 30 to 40% of the original saw marks intact.

Antique Black Walnut Floor

Black Walnut wood is rescued from century-old barns and outbuildings, lending a strikingly warm, rare look to your space’s floors. This flooring is known for its beautiful grain pattern and rich dark hues and can be further enhanced through hand-scraping or using square pegs during installation.

Weathered Antique Floor

This mixture of reclaimed softwoods (ranging from hemlocks to pines) contributes to your floors’ timeless, natural look and feel. Weathered Antique flooring bears unique characteristics, including original saw markings and nail marks that add soulful and historic impressions to your space.
