Before and after of plaster removal during the deconstruction process.
All that lath gets salvaged, bundled, donated and resold for projects like decorative wood walls.
When we talk about hidden value in homes this is a fantastic example.
Don't demo it, deconstruct it!

Over the weekend I had the pleasure of meeting the owners of Kickappo Honey. They are the proud new owners of the lumber from the red out building structure I posted for sale a few weeks ago.
It was a pleasure to meet this family, hear about their business and lend a hand (a very small hand) in assisting in the lumber loading.
For me, this is what this deconstruction "thing" is all about. Salvaging materials so others can reuse them and avoiding adding to landfills.
I'd say getting to meet people like Kyle, his dad and step brother has been the best job perk so far.
Great job loading up crew!
Watch as Ariel explains why he loves what he does in #sustainable deconstruction! ♻️🏡
I'm starting to wonder if the raccoons are following Josh White to his projects....
Buildings that might not have been occupied in awhile come with risks. You never know what you'll find.
With another recent spike in lumber prices, the reward of salvaging lumber from deconstruction feels even more gratifying.
Thank you to our clients for helping us give another life to materials like these.
Beautiful job crew!
On todays addition of "you never know what you'll find during a site visit". My guess is original stone decals from the exterior of the building. Super neat. Strange to see them stacked in a room.
We have lots of lumber and wood project materials available for purchase. From decorative antique wood beams to framing lumber for remodels to decorative wood walls and wood crafting materials, we have it.
Reach out if I can help you find something.

If you have photo #2 and you’re considering removal you need to contact us! We want to show you how much value is in that out out building.
Recyclean Inc is happy to be working for the owners of the B&L office furniture. The building suffered extensive fire damage in August. The crews are working hard to sort the recyclable items from the waste materials. They're doing a great job! If you're driving by, give the guys a beep and a thumbs up!
Structure fire is one of the harder deconstruction projects. Lots of toxic chemicals are released during the burn. We're glad to do what we can to keep as much out of the landfills as possible.

Hey all you cool cats and kittens...
Just kidding. That one's taken.
I would really enjoy hearing about how you plan to spend the upcoming holidays. Will they look different this year? I am also wondering what creative ways you keep your waste down in terms of to go containers for left overs or if you do anything different with gift wrapping. Thanks for sharing!

Question- Over the past couple weekends I saw posts promoting small business Saturday to encourage shopping local. I'm wondering if you participated in shopping small business Saturday or if you are the owner of a small business. Would you post in the comments your favorite small business or a link to your small business?
As part of helping create a circular economy small businesses are super important.
Thanks!
This 2013 home is being deconstructed. We do not just work on antique structures. Newer construction can have just as much tax benefit.
Love the property and location but not the structure? That's when you need Recyclean Inc. Deconstruct and donate those materials before you build new!
