Reclaimed Timber Flooring with Timeless Character
At Melo Flooring, we offer beautifully aged reclaimed timber flooring for clients seeking warmth, authenticity and a story beneath their feet. Sourced from historical buildings, old vessels and demolition sites, reclaimed timber delivers a unique visual character that cannot be replicated by modern materials.
Each board carries a sense of history, marked by weathering, nail holes, original saw marks and decades of natural patina. This makes reclaimed timber the perfect choice for hospitality venues, heritage renovations and statement residential interiors.

Unique Beauty, Built to Last
Our reclaimed timber flooring combines sustainability, strength and charm in one highly durable package. Reclaimed timbers are typically hardwoods—dense, seasoned and extremely strong—making them ideal for high–traffic environments where longevity matters.
Due to the labour–intensive process involved in salvaging, de–nailing, treating and machining the boards, reclaimed timber is a premium product. It’s comparable in cost to high–end European flooring, but offers an unmatched level of originality and tactile appeal.
While we primarily offer reclaimed timber on a supply–only basis, we ensure each order is meticulously selected and prepared. We work with trusted suppliers who specialise in sourcing genuine reclaimed material, not imitation products. Every floor we provide tells a story that enhances the soul of the space.
Custom Finishes and Flexible Applications
Our reclaimed flooring is available in a range of widths, thicknesses and finishes. Depending on your design goals, it can be supplied raw for on–site finishing or pre–finished in textures that highlight the natural beauty of the timber. Finishes include brushed, oiled and lightly limed options to suit both traditional and contemporary interiors.
Due to its unique appearance, reclaimed timber pairs exceptionally well with industrial design elements, exposed brick, black steel fittings and other natural materials. It also adds contrast and warmth to modern minimalist spaces, providing texture and depth where needed.
