"Where do you get all this cool stuff?"
That is one question we get asked in the store continually.
The answer is easy, sort of: throughout deconstruct process we meticulously remove the elements ourselves from a variety of buildings.
Then we set up this inventory in our store.
That means dirt, sweat and hard work. We're a salvage company - it's what we do!
Architectural Antiques is dedicated to preserving historical building elements. We strive to reclaim viable architectural artifacts that can be reused in other residential or business applications. Over 93% of building demolitions end up in landfills. We're trying to reduce this figure by recycling and reusing unique and historical architectural elements.
We are always looking for new salvages. If you know of a pre-1950's home, building, theater or church in your area that is slated for removal, let us know. Our team will visit the site, assess the opportunity and present a professional bid. We'll even pay you a "finder's fee" if our bid is accepted.
When our bid is accepted, we work within demolition timetables to remove the elements quickly and efficiently with a fully insured salvage crew.
From time to time, we will also purchase individual items from private sellers. Please contact us if you have an architectural antique you are interested in selling.
