Whole Log Lumber

Jim opened our eyes (and hands) to the world of reclaimed hardwood. He’s very knowledgeable and dedicated to producing/selling a quality product. We were novices in working with reclaimed hardwood flooring. After deciding on a bundle of Carolina character heart-pine, Whole Log Lumber literally walked us through every step of the installation and finishing.
They do provide some instructions/best-practices on their website which serve as great guide… but if you need a bit more hand-holding (as we did,) they’re more than happy to oblige.
Some of the best advice Jim gave us was: “it’s your floor -- get to know the wood with your hands, sand/screen it to the place you’re comfortable with, the burnishing is going to make it beautiful to the site and touch."
It’s been almost a year, and we are absolutely thrilled with our floor. Aside from the awesome aesthetics, the maintenance is a piece of cake — Example: our 2yr-old decided to drag a crate of toys across the floor. There were sharp objects sticking out of the crate which resulted in some scary scratches. We simply took out the Master Wood Oil we had used for burnishing and applied to the scratches… a little buffing and viola, it’s beautiful again!

WOW !! The quality of the wood, the friendly, personal service and the attention to detail are unsurpassed. We had a Carolina Character Oak floor installed in our Master Bedroom in May 2016 - we bought the house in April. Jim said the wood came from an 85 year old barn in eastern Tennessee.

The finished floor with the WOCA oil treatment turned out even better than we expected. Our contractor was amazed and took pictures to show his other clients. Our family and friends gasp when we take them on a tour of our new home and show them our master bedroom suite. We used the left over wood to create a wall accent piece.

Thank you Whole Log Lumber. I'm referring you to neighbors and friends.

We recently purchased old hickory wood flooring from Whole Log Lumber. It was shipped to our home without incident. The floor was put in by a craftsman carpenter who told us he could not believe the quality in the wood, not to mention the milling was none to compare. So little was wasted we have enough to left
over to do our master bathroom. Whole Log Lumber was very professional and wonderful to work with. We highly recommend Whole Log Lumber.

Jim and Loy at Whole Log Lumber are great folks to work with for any size project requiring high quality reclaimed heart pine, oak and mixed hardwood lumber. The dining room table that I built using their heart pine has served me beautifully through the years. Our Hand in Hand Gallery in Flat Rock had an amazing cabin grade heart pine floor from them and it got so many comments through the years. Jim and the crew also helped me with a special project of creating a new sign for the gallery using redwood recycled from a water tank. They handled the glue up, cut out and sandblasting for me. Check them out, glad that I did!
