HOME > ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT OF RECLAIMED WOOD

New construction or remodeling, reclaimed wood offers a environmentally responsible aspect to your project that is rich in both character and history. Most of our reclaimed timber is suitable as green building material for any of your personal and professional wood projects. Our milling facility and custom finishes will give your antique wood project a unique and eco-friendly flavor that cannot be matched with fresh cut lumber.

By salvaging these vintage materials, The Woodshop of Texas has saved millions of yards of space in our landfills today. With our custom milling facility, we are able to recycle the reclaimed antique wood into flooring, beams, staircases, and trusses that will be stunning additions to your home or remodeling project.

In many areas of our country, the government is offering incentives to builders and homeowners that use environmentally green products in their projects. By using this eco-friendly alternative in your project, you will be saving trees as well as precious landfill space. 

Today, The Woodshop of Texas inventories over 1.3 million board feet of reclaimed lumber which would have otherwise been buried in a landfill. Once the lumber is on site at our milling facility, we do everything we can to use 100% of the product we salvage. The shavings produced by our machines are collected and distributed to local horse stables for bedding, and even our sawdust is recycled to help local companies with spills and clean ups.

Reclaimed wood is a wonderful green building material. By using these recycled woods, you will help to preserve our natural resources and lessen the burden on our landfills.
