We've supplied reclaimed wood and reclaimed wood beams to support the visions of architects, builders, designers & homeowners, since 1984. Along the way we've set standards that have become benchmarks for reclaimed quality industry-wide, and developed hand-crafted effects that complement our signature Carolina Classic and Carolina Character wood Style grades. We define our classic reclaimed styles by surfaces with smooth distinctive wood grains, which every wood geek & connoisseur can appreciate.
Single species reclaimed hardwood flooring, in species noted above, but not elsewhere referenced, are by special request and as available. By blending 3 or 4 unique reclaimed hardwood species, we create a very special one-of-a-kind floor. A variety of grain patterns invites subtle interest, while a range of natural color tones adds contrast. When requested and available, reclaimed hardwood floors in the mentioned single species can be created for you in addition to the one-of-a-kind mixed hardwood reclaimed floors.
The most beautiful reclaimed floors you'll find. Our craftsmen take the extra time & necessary steps to achieve the best results reclaimed wood has to offer. Our attention to details guarantees that each board we touch achieves it's most outstanding effect. No shortcuts. No excuses. Just beautiful floors. We've mastered the art of restoring antique lumber from old buildings and transforming it into remarkably reclaimed wood flooring. It requires lots of time, but we think it's worth it! Our reclaimed wood floors are created from salvaged wood, so no living trees have been cut to produce them.
Have it your way: more rustic and rugged or more burnished and refined? In creating Carolina Character floors the amount of skip planing and sanding ultimately determines how much grain is revealed and how much natural patina remains. It's a delicate process. How much to keep, how much to take away. Once installed, your floor can be sanded in place to achieve the surface finish you envision.

At Whole Log Lumber, we offer one-of-a-kind flooring, as well as one-on-one customer service in all facets of your purchase.

The ability to install an engineered floor on top of a concrete slab, eliminates the need for the additional expense of a wood sub-floor. With full top wear-layers they're glued to 9-ply baltic birch core platforms with waterproof environmentally friendly adhesives that insures excellent stability even in environments with fluctuating moisture content. They can be surface finished in place, or purchased pre-finished in quantities over 1000 sft. Reclaimed engineered floors are created with the same wood faces with our solid wood floors.
