DATELINE: BARNEGAT, NJ… Whether you’re remodeling or building new, flooring is one of the central considerations in design. Finding the right flooring material and style is imperative because once installed, it can be costly to change. Recycling The Past, one of the largest architectural salvage retailers in the U.S., announces the availability of fine, fashionable and affordable salvaged flooring.

Offering high quality Oak, Walnut, Maple, Cherry and Pine flooring materials, Recycling The Past enables buyers to obtain old world craftsmanship at an affordable price. Flooring material salvaged from an 18th century French castle or 19th century bank barn will last decades, even centuries, longer than many of today’s flooring materials offered by retailers. And, it’s steeped in history.

"The key elements to look for when selecting flooring are durability, beauty and longevity. Flooring is an investment that is somewhat permanent and costly to change. Unlike other design concepts such as window or wall treatments, flooring should be aesthetically appealing, highly functional and something you’ll be able to live with for a long time. If you are looking for the best materials and highest quality workmanship, you’ll find it through salvaged flooring," explained Matt White, founder of Recycling The Past.

He continued, "The quality of old growth lumber is simply not found in today’s market. Our vintage flooring and other building materials can be used during the building phase or incorporated into an existing design to create unique focal points of interest."
