Who would have thought that old rusted barn tin could
actually be used for something beautiful?
Some of our customers sure did!
Wainscoting |
As we dismantle old barns, we take care to preserve all of
the elements such as the doors, hinges and beams. We never imagined people would want that old
rusty tin from the roof tops.We used to
just keep it in a big pile thinking we would recycle it as scrap.That is, until one day we got a call from a customer
who wanted to use it as wainscoting.
Steve got the dimensions and went out to the pile of tin and
began selecting pieces for the project.
He laid it out, power washed it, and off it went! The customer used it in its natural state to
cover a wall in their upstairs loft.
Since then, we have had all kinds of requests. Steve had a great idea to flatten the
v-grooves and apply a coat or two of polyurethane to it. This opened up a whole new variety of
uses. Here are some projects our
customers have done using the old rusty tin:
Backsplash |
Shower Stall |
Soffit |
Siding |
