Frequently Asked Questions

Is reclaimed wood better than new wood?

Reclaimed wood is often considered better than new wood for several reasons. Environmentally, it's a superior choice because it reduces the demand for new timber, thereby lessening deforestation and waste. Aesthetically, reclaimed wood has a unique character and history that new wood lacks, featuring rich textures and deep patinas developed over years. It's also typically sourced from old-growth wood, which is denser and more durable than the younger new wood often used today.

Is reclaimed wood furniture safe for children and pets?

Reclaimed wood furniture is indeed safe and an excellent choice for households with children or pets. Each piece undergoes a rigorous cleaning and finishing process to remove any potential hazards, such as old nails, splinters, or residual chemicals. The wood is then sealed with non-toxic finishes to ensure there are no harmful substances that can affect your home’s environment.

Will reclaimed wood furniture rot easily?

Reclaimed wood furniture is less likely to rot if maintained properly. Due to its age, reclaimed wood has already been exposed to different climatic conditions, making it more stable and less prone to splitting or warping. To ensure longevity, keep your reclaimed wood furniture in a dry environment and treat it with oils or sealants that protect against moisture. Regular maintenance will keep your reclaimed wood pieces in excellent condition for years.

Can I left reclaimed wood furniture outside?

While reclaimed wood is durable and full of character, it is generally not recommended to leave it outdoors unprotected due to the UK's variable weather conditions. Prolonged exposure to moisture and extreme temperatures can deteriorate the wood over time.
