FAQ

Reclaimed barnwood is lumber salvaged from historic barns, homesteads, ranch buildings, and agricultural structures across the United States. This wood often comes from old-growth trees and is naturally harder, more stable, and more beautiful than modern lumber.

We’re a family-owned Colorado business creating beds, dressers, dining tables, coffee tables, mantles, porch swings, benches, barnwood doors, cabinets and more — all built from genuine reclaimed lumber. Every piece comes with a **lifetime workmanship warranty**, and we ship anywhere in the USA.

Using reclaimed wood reduces demand for newly harvested lumber, keeps historic material out of landfills, and gives new purpose to structures that would otherwise be discarded. It’s one of the most sustainable and eco-friendly furniture choices available.

Unlike fresh lumber, reclaimed barnwood has already endured decades of weather and natural movement. Before building, we **kiln-dry, de-nail, plane, joint, and stabilize** the wood. This results in extremely stable, long-lasting furniture. Minor character marks are natural, but structural defects are covered by our lifetime workmanship warranty.

Our reclaimed barnwood typically comes from aged pine, Douglas fir, oak, and mixed hardwoods. Harder woods like oak offer pronounced grain and durability, while softer reclaimed pine and fir provide a smoother rustic aesthetic with natural patina.

Yes. All wood is fully cleaned, dried, de-nailed, milled, and finished using modern woodworking equipment. We apply safe, low-VOC finishes so your furniture is completely ready for indoor use.

No. Kiln drying eliminates any insects or larvae, and we only use lumber that has been thoroughly treated, cleaned, and inspected. Barnwood is naturally less prone to infestation than new lumber.

Yes — we offer both. • **Rustic:** Visible saw marks, weathering, nail holes, and texture. • **Rustic-smooth:** Sanded smoother while retaining character. • **Refined rustic:** More polished finish with subtle character. You choose the look that fits your home.

Barnwood furniture is significantly heavier than standard store-bought furniture because reclaimed wood is dense and old-growth. This weight contributes to its exceptional durability and stability.

Each piece of reclaimed wood is unique, with natural variations in color, weathering, grain, and texture. Your furniture will match the style and design you choose, but it will have its own one-of-a-kind character.

Absolutely. We build everything to order and can customize dimensions, wood tones, finishes, hardware, edge styles, and more. If you have an inspiration photo or measurements, we can build it.

Care is simple: use a dry or slightly damp cloth, avoid harsh cleaners, and occasionally apply a conditioning polish. Barnwood is naturally durable and holds up extremely well with minimal maintenance.

Yes — barnwood is thicker, tougher, and more scratch-resistant than new factory furniture. It’s an excellent choice for busy homes, cabins, rental properties, and mountain houses.

Yes! We ship nationwide, including Alaska and Hawaii. Most pieces arrive fully assembled or require only simple hardware attachment.

Our warranty covers structural construction, joinery, and craftsmanship on every barnwood piece we make, for life. If any workmanship issue arises, we repair or replace it — no questions asked.
