Amazing staff that was able to help match the antique floors in my house with gorgeous matching reclaimed floors! It came out better than I could have imagined!

This place is fantastic. I've had three dealings with them in the past four years. The selection is incredible, plenty of reclaimed wood or salvaged wood in different thicknesses and widths. Matthew was in the warehouse this visit and was enthusiastic and so helpful. For a fee they will deliver. Alice and Greta we're on top of all the finances and delivery times. I highly recommend a visit here. Not to mention Iggy's bakery it's just down the street.

We purchased reclaimed pine boards to use as our floors from Longleaf Lumber for two different projects. They are extremely knowledgeable about all things wood, helpful, and they provide a great product. You can definitely tell the difference between reclaimed wood and wood from a local lumber yard. Since we live in Cambridge, have very old wood floors, Longleaf is the only place where we can get materials to match.
My only recommendation is to make sure you hire an installer who knows how to work with reclaimed wood that you can trust with the quality investment you make with Longleaf. We got lucky with our first floor install, and the floors came out beautiful. Unfortunately, we hired the wrong company for our second floor install.

You want reclaimed wood anything. You go to long leaf lumber. Awesome selection of all the speciality pieces that you could possible want for reclaimed wood. The customer service is awesome. They are experienced and knowledgeable and more than willing to accommodate the novice purchaser with guidance and assistance. Five stars.

I recently purchased a vacation home on Orcas Island, WA and learned that the beautiful wood floors in the main areas of the house are heart pine. When we decided to install heart pine throughout the house, our installer recommended Longleaf Lumber. So, long distance (from our primary residence in Minnesota), I worked with Ian at Longleaf to decide on the appropriate grade of wood, place my order, and manage the shipment from Cambridge, MA to Orcas Island. Ian was helpful and attentive and took the time to answer all my questions.
He also provided excellent communication throughout the ordering, milling, and shipping processes. He sent photos of the wood as it was being shipped. And, when it arrived on Orcas Island, I was informed by our installer that it is the most beautiful heart pine he has seen in 20 years in the installation business. I can't wait to see it in person but I know it will be spectacular. I am so glad we decided to work with Longleaf and I can give them my highest recommendation.
