Natural Materials

It is usually a more cost-effective material as well. If you’re considering engineered wood, there is a vast range of colors, styles, and sizes to choose from.

Salvaged Materials

Reclaimed wood has a rich patina and aesthetic appeal. Because it has been around longer than recently harvested wood, it has a character to it.
