Reclaimed Floorboards

At UKAA we have a large range of floorboards for sale, they are all available to view online or at our reclamation yard in Cannock Wood.

We have both reclaimed original Victorian floorboards and also a range of re sawn boards (Victorian beams which have been cut down in to floorboards) in stock at any time. The floor boards can either be square edge or tongue and groove.

Many people these days are re-installing reclaimed floor boards. You can use either reclaimed Victorian boards (Either square edge or tongue and groove) or re sawn boards, this completely depends on the look you are trying to achieve.
 

We are very particular when it comes to reclaimed floor boards; we only buy floor boards that we ourselves would use in our own home. The timber we buy is over 100 years old and we only buy the best timber.

Floor boards are often fitted with various board widths in one room. This method makes a floor appear aesthetically pleasing, but some of our customers tend to use just one width of board in a room. The choice is yours, depending on what your requirements are. Using one width in a room is more convenient for the person fitting the boards. One only has to see the finished product to appreciate why it really is worth all the time, cost, and effort. A reclaimed floor that has been properly laid and finished correctly will blend perfectly with the décor of a period property, this will enhance the surroundings and will greatly add to the property's re-sale value. Re-claimed flooring, which is tens and sometimes hundreds of years old, attains a beauty and patina that simply cannot be replicated by new flooring suppliers.

Buying from UKAA will remove any quality issues and allow you to concentrate on the fitting / installation.

Fitting Original Reclaimed Victorian Floorboards:

Our office has been fitted throughout with reclaimed Victorian floorboards, the boards that we used are shown in the images below with the final image showing the boards once fitted.
The boards were sanded with a normal 4" wide belt sander - we did not use the larger sanders that you normally hire as we did not want to take out too much of the patina of the old boards, we wanted to keep as much of the character as possible. The boards were then finished with a clear Osmo oil.
