Today, we’re talking with Anthony from Real Antique Wood, a sawmill focused on finding reclaimed wood and telling its story. At RAW, the team focuses on salvaging reclaimed wood from old barns and buildings.
Based in Irvington, North Jersey, Real Antique Wood serves varying types of clients. From homeowners looking for a reclaimed shelf to put their coffee cups on to contractors carrying out large scale renovations, Real Antique Wood doesn’t shy away from anyone and strives to provide reclaimed wood for any person or any project that needs it.
Challenges At RAW:
- Dependable manpower - There’s simply not enough people in this day and age that are willing or capable of working with their hands in a skilled trade.
- Finding crews willing to travel to dismantle buildings and barns can be a feat.
- However, knowing how big a challenge finding a good crew is, Anthony is extremely grateful for his core team. A group of dedicated and hard-working employees are on staff at Real Antique Wood!
Educating The Masses :
- RAW focuses on educating their customers on the labor intensive process that is involved in bringing reclaimed wood from the barn phase to becoming finished products displayed in their home.
- They document each piece’s journey so that their clients know the story of their specific project’s backstory.
Marketing:
- They employ someone full-time that is constantly on “ground zero”, whether that’s in the showroom, at the barn takedowns, or on the road with the crew. This employee has a passion for the business and focuses on documenting every step of the journey so that they can upload it to social media.
