This is a new online store dedicated to reclaimed flooring, from the UK’s largest independent flooring company Mckay Flooring. Reclaimed flooring is just the perfect floor-covering of the day for so many reasons:
For a start there are the benefits that it shares with its new counterparts: namely that it is a floor for life, and a clean, hygienic (and dust-mite free) alternative to carpets.
Then you have the fact that reclaimed flooring is eco-friendly; recycled floors that would have otherwise gone into land-fill, and each one saving trees from being cut-down to make new wood flooring.
Then you have the affordability and value for money aspect: reclaimed flooring is available at a fraction of the price of its brand-new counterpart, and if properly cared for can last almost as long (which is still a lifetime).
And finally you have the history aspect, which was explained well by a friend of mine who said: if only they could talk; in reference to reclaimed floorboards.
This was in response to a post on a sister-blog of this one, also by Mckay Flooring, which covered where the reclaimed wood that Mckay sells as recycled flooring comes from; namely places like Ibrox, Celtic Park, Hampden, Culzean Castle, Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum, the Church of the Holy Rude and many more prestigious places — when you look at reclaimed floorboards, every blemish tells a story from the floor’s past.
It is little wonder that reclaimed flooring is currently so popular, and now there is an easy place to buy the best reclaimed flooring at the best prices. Visit our online store now>>>
