OUR STORY

THE FIRST BARN

Antique Building Solutions is deeply rooted in heritage. In 1998, the company was founded when my father was asked to take down an old barn for a neighbor. He realized that our ancestors built these barns by hand and he couldn’t bring himself to throw their work away. As more barns came down, we saw how the beauty of old growth lumber had endured the centuries. It was then we decided to quit farming and devote ourselves to reclaiming and repurposing old growth wood.

​

My father and I built this business on the following values: quality craftsmanship, respect for history, and a devoted work ethic. We choose only the best lumber from centuries old barns to be treated, milled, and placed into contemporary homes. All of our work is meticulous and customized to our customers’ exact specifications and needs. Above all, we pay attention to where our wood comes from and where it is going. We only work with partners who will love our wood as much as we do.

​

One day, I will hand over the business to my own sons. From generation to generation, Antique Building Solutions will pass on the heritage of our land, our wood, and our people.
