American Restoration combines two of the most expensive and high-end trends in the hardwood flooring industry. We are excited because our product offers these really pricey trends in an affordable floor! Elegantly rustic, reclaimed-wood styling with very distinctive markings. This style, paired with a rich oil-stained finish look, creates a stunningly beautiful floor and is reminiscent of old worn barnwood. One of the hottest visuals and environmental trends is utilizing reclaimed wood. Much of this wood is resourced from the beautiful old barns you see dotting the rural countryside. These barns are quickly disappearing. To use this product for flooring can cost upward of $50 to $100 per square foot. We have created the look of this authentic reclaimed character in a running line product! The second hottest trend – an oil-rubbed finish – has been one of the most popular hardwood flooring choices in Europe and has now found its way to the states. An oilrubbed finish is a more natural way to finish a wood floor, and it creates a very low gloss visual that really accentuates the grain of the wood. This is a sand and finish technique that is not only a very laborious and time consuming process, but it is not very durable. A traditional oil-rubbed finish requires reapplication several times a year. Thanks to the advantages of Shaw’s hardwood finish – ScufResist Platinum – we can create this elegant look without all the maintenance. We have combined these two looks to bring you a floor that presents the authentic, skip-sawn look of reclaimed wood – rich with history and human touch, but with a fresh sophistication for today’s design-aware lifestyles. A floor that expresses a sense of caring and character. A floor with great substance and style. A floor with a vintage look combined with state-of-the-art technology. A floor that can live in any setting! And of course... it is made right here.
