Reclaimed White Oak, Skip-Planed In Our Shop
Reclaimed white oak milled in Auburn, Georgia and skip-planed to keep its old saw marks and patina. Kiln dried and shipped nationwide.
This skip-planed white oak flooring is milled in our own shop from reclaimed white oak. White oak is hard, stable, and naturally rot-resistant — the reason builders a century ago trusted it with barns and outbuildings.
We kiln dry the boards so the floor holds still, then skip-plane them: the planer takes the high spots down to a smooth, walkable surface while the low spots keep their original saw marks and weathered color. You get a floor that walks clean but still looks like reclaimed wood.

Reclaimed White Oak Flooring, Installed
Every board is one of a kind. Expect natural variation in color and grain, plus knots and old nail marks — that’s the wood’s history, not a defect.
Installing Reclaimed Oak Flooring
We supply the flooring; your flooring contractor or an experienced DIYer handles the install. Let the boards acclimate in the room for several days before installing, with the HVAC running at normal living conditions, and follow standard hardwood flooring practice for subfloor prep and moisture testing. Random lengths install like any tongue-and-groove floor — stagger the end joints and pull boards from several boxes as you go so color mixes evenly.
