Reclaimed floorboards.com is the new reclaimed flooring division of Mckay Flooring. For those that don’t know, Mckay Flooring is the UK’s largest independent flooring contractor, and has been laying commercial and private floors in Scotland and the UK for the last 37 years.
Obviously, this also means that we lift hundreds of square meters of flooring, which used to go in the skip, but in recent years has been in increasing demand on resale.
A perfect storm has gathered to make reclaimed flooring one of the most popular floor coverings of our generation: we have increasing environmental awareness, which is capable of making reclaimed flooring immensely popular on its own, but this has combined with increasing health awareness of all the bugs that live in carpets, and tighter financial circumstances brought on by the recession. Reclaimed flooring is of course the perfect product for the people living with this new awareness.
Obviously the more flooring that is reclaimed and sold, the less will need to be manufactured, which saves trees.
Wood flooring is the perfect answer to a carpet-free life, but of course, new wood flooring is too expensive for many people. Which is where reclaimed flooring enters stage left, because reclaimed flooring costs a fraction of what new wood flooring does, and in many cases is in nearly new condition.
So, if reclaimed flooring is the perfect floor covering, reclaimedfloorboards.com will forever more endeavour to be the perfect place to buy it.
