Historic Materials. Modern Performance.
At Reclaimed Wood NYC, we believe reclaimed wood flooring should preserve the character and integrity of historic materials while meeting the demands of modern construction and luxury living.
Our reclaimed wood flooring collections are carefully sourced for their aged patina, grain movement, texture, density, and architectural authenticity. We work directly with reclaimed wood suppliers, artisan producers, specialty mills, and European manufacturers dedicated to preserving and producing some of the world’s finest reclaimed wood flooring materials.
These partnerships allow us to source exceptional antique reclaimed oak, heart pine, white pine, Douglas fir, mixed reclaimed species, and custom-milled reclaimed flooring materials for luxury projects throughout New York City and beyond.
From original face reclaimed planks and resawn textures to custom finishes, wire-brushed surfaces, fuming techniques, hardwax oils, and engineered reclaimed flooring systems, each floor is tailored to the specific design vision and performance requirements of the project.
A Commitment to Craftsmanship & Innovation
A commitment to craftsmanship, precision, and technical expertise is at the core of Reclaimed Wood NYC. Founder Joe Avila entered the wood flooring industry with a unique background in finance and marine navigation, bringing a systems-oriented mindset focused on detail, structural performance, documentation, and long-term durability.
Early in his career, Joe attended the National Wood Flooring Association (NWFA) Intermediate School, where he trained alongside master craftsmen specializing in advanced European flooring techniques used in landmark properties, luxury estates, and historically significant interiors throughout the world.
It was there that he first learned advanced techniques including:
-
Bending wood to create organic and architectural floor designs
-
Mixing wood species for tonal variation and dimensional depth
-
Using fuming, smoking, aniline dyes, and tannic reactions to achieve custom finishes
-
Engineering flooring systems for stability and long-term performance

What began as technical education quickly evolved into a passion for historic materials, reclaimed wood sourcing, craftsmanship, and architectural flooring design. Recognizing that many reclaimed wood flooring materials available in the United States lacked the level of engineering, refinement, and artistry found in Europe, Joe began developing direct relationships with reclaimed wood mills, artisan producers, and specialty flooring manufacturers dedicated to producing exceptional reclaimed flooring materials.Today, these partnerships allow Reclaimed Wood NYC to provide architects, designers, and homeowners with carefully curated reclaimed wood flooring collections, specification guidance, technical consulting, and fully customized flooring systems engineered for extraordinary interiors.
