HomerWood Reclaimed American Oak floors, beautifully preserved, reveal the barn’s special imprints, including nail holes, cracks, mineral streaks and saw kerfs. These markings add to the distinction and authenticity of these one-of-a-kind floors, mingling the wood’s unique past with contemporary design aesthetics. HomerWood Reclaimed Hardwood begins circa 1800 with Oak from the slow growth timber forests of the Appalachian Mountain Region. This lumber was used to construct barns across areas of Ohio, Virginia and Pennsylvania. Once a barn is identified as no longer in use, it is carefully taken down, and the wood is hand-inspected and all nails and other metal objects are removed. The wood is kiln-dried to remove moisture, and then is precision milled in HomerWood’s Titusville, PA custom shop.
