Exposed Reclaimed Floorboards: What’s The Appeal?
Exposed wood reclaimed floorboards offer a unique feel to your home. It is an addition to your home that oozes character, plus it’s sustainable! Among the many other ways to incorporate reclaimed wood into your home, using reclaimed floorboards is becoming one of the most popular. In this blog, we are going to explore the appeal of exposed wood reclaimed floorboards and why they are becoming an appealing option for homeowners.
What are reclaimed floorboards?
Individuals salvage reclaimed floorboards from old buildings, homes or other structures that are undergoing demolition or are no longer in use. They remove, clean and recondition these old wooden floorboards. The floorboards are then sold again as suitable for modern homes, rather than being thrown away.
The benefits of using reclaimed floorboards
Sustainability
One of the biggest appeals of reclaimed floorboards is their sustainability. By using reclaimed wood you are helping to reduce the demand for new wood. This can help conserve natural resources, reduce waste and protect the planet.
Unique character
Another significant factor that affects the appeal of reclaimed floorboards is the character and personality they bring to a space. Each piece of reclaimed wood has a history and its own story to tell. The worn, natural look of the wood makes the home feel lived in. This can add a touch of warmth and depth to a room that is impossible to achieve with new floorboards
Durability
Like many antique or vintage items, reclaimed floorboards possess durability that exceeds that of more modern pieces. Reclaimed wood has already demonstrated its ability to withstand the test of time. After enduring exposure to the elements and surviving, reclaimed wood has demonstrated its strength and resistance to general wear and tear.
Exposed wood
One of the increasingly popular ways to use reclaimed floorboards is to leave the wood exposed rather than cover it with a carpet or vinyl. Exposed wood can add an industrial or rustic feel to your room. Of course, this depends on the aesthetics of the rest of your home and the type of wood used.
