Centre Mills Antique Floors, has been in the business of rescuing wood from old American structures that are destined for demolition for almost a quarter of a century. The small crossroads of Centre Mills, Pennsylvania is nestled in the rolling hills in the heart of South Central PA near the historic town of Gettysburg. John Longanecker, owner of Centre Mills Antique Floors, uses the old gristmill in Centre Mills, built in 1841, as a storage facility. The wood he saves comes from the unique barns, houses, mills and outbuildings built by the early PA settlers in the early 18th and 19th centuries. Early pioneers used the wood that was on the site to build their structures, so that over the years Longanecker has rescued a unique collection of oak, pine chestnut and fir. Previously the wood was felled by hand, cut, worked and hewn by hand. Longanecker has learned to appreciate and marvel at the mastery and the ingenuity of the earlier American builder. Longanecker has many satisfied customers. For years he has professionally manufactured milled and dry kilned orders of antique flooring. He also provides hand-hewn beams used both structurally and decoratively or as mantels and he has carefully dismantled and preserved early log cabins. We feel antique wood is the unique alternative for folks who wish to preserve part of our heritage by reusing this rescued wood. The beautiful imperfections that Nature, Time and Patience have given to the old wood make the wood wonderfully unique. The patina of the aged wood cannot be duplicated. Nature's imperfections are the basis for the ultimate in antique flooring. We salvage and sell old and rare wood: wormy chestnut; rustic oak; heart pine; yellow pine; early white pine and fir. These special woods can be used for flooring, wallboards, ceilings, repairs, restorations, and refurbishments. Also hand hewn beams for both decorative and structural construction and original antique log structures are available. Very importantly, we are one of the few antique wood flooring companies that dry-kiln our floors. We invite your inquiries. Give John a call. If you can't get him on the phone you know he is out rescuing more of mother natures finest. Leave a message and he will return your call. See less »
