Reclaimed Materials

 
ISSUE:
“Reclaimed” refers to the reuse of structural materials (such as lumber, windows, doors, siding, paints, plumbing fixtures etc.) from remodeling or demolished buildings. In our showcase house, the siding of the house, window and door are reclaimed materials. You can capture authentic and unique architectural features not found in brand new building materials. It also helps to significantly reduce waste going to landfills and energy used to make new materials. The specific item you want may not always be available, but be sure to check back often. The next time you need to make home improvements, consider using reclaimed materials.
