Traditional Barn Board

Our most popular reclaimed product is traditional barn board. These boards are salvaged from Canadian barns and are between 50 - 150 years old.

We sort all of the barn board we bring in into three different grades: grey, brown, and weathered. Most often these boards are used as panelling or siding, but they can also be laid as flooring or used in furniture making.

Canadian barn board is prized for its colour and dimensional stability.

Grey Board

Reclaimed from barn exteriors, grey board features a natural range of silver-grey tones from light to dark, depending on wood type and weather exposure. Commonly used for siding, panelling, and commercial applications.

Please note that there is a wide colour variation in these boards spanning from very light silver-grey to dark grey and then to almost black.

Brown Board

Salvaged from interior spaces, brown board could have originally been used as wall panelling, granary board or hayloft floor. It's most often used reused as flooring, as square wall panelling, or milled into a tongue-and-groove profile.

These boards are known for the the rich golden or brown patina that results from being sheltered from the elements.

Weathered Board

Similar to grey board, weathered board is reclaimed from the exterior, but is generally taken from north and east facing sides. This placement produces darker coloured boards that are often used of siding or panelling.

Unlike grey boards that are usually consistent in colour throughout the board, weather boards will have more inconsistent colours.
