Reclaimed Antique Wood Flooring

Some of the original surface antique flooring we sell was hand-planed and then foot worn over hundreds of years. These wide plank floors are smooth enough to install without sanding and are perfect for someone who wants an authentic 200 to 300 year old floor. Other vintage reclaimed floors have saw marks and should be screened or sanded once installed. The reclaimed antique flooring for sale below is available only as complete batches. You should plan on 10 – 20% waste. Contact me with your flooring needs and we can find an old floor that’s right for you.

Learn why historic flooring is so valuable. Also, this recent article in CT Old House Online offers insight into the challenges and rewards of reclaimed flooring.

New Wide, Original Surface, Foot Worn, Numbered, White Pine Flooring

Spectacular 1,400sf+ of original surface, foot worn, numbered, wide, long, antique Eastern White pine flooring. A fabulous find and a long time in the making. This came from the Chichester, NH meeting house which dates to the 1770’s, but I think the original floor wore out and this floor was put in during the mid-1800’s. It is numbered so the footwear matches the sister boards.

Cost: (batch #438) 1,400sf+ @ $35sf, whole batch only, $49,000
