Mountain Lumber Co.
Mountain Lumber Company, headquartered in Ruckersville, Virginia, is one of the oldest reclaimed wood flooring and millwork companies in the United States. Founder Willie Drake began sourcing timbers from old textile mills in Virginia and the southeastern United States in 1974. The company now recovers antique wood timbers from a variety of sources, including abandoned industrial mills, antique barns, submerged forests, 19th-century breweries and ancient Chinese structures, and refinishes them into custom flooring and millwork.
Mountain Lumber’s flooring and millwork are of the highest quality and have been used in many prominent historic projects such as Monticello, Montpelier, Mount Vernon, Ash Lawn–Highland and Poplar Forest. The company’s flooring has also been used in some of the finest museum, retail and office space in New York City, Boston, Richmond, Atlanta, Denver and Los Angeles, not to mention homes across the United States and around the world.
Mountain Lumber’s reclaimed products will provide points toward LEED-certified projects, and the company is actively working with many of the leading ecologically motivated architects, builders and designers. The company sells directly to homeowners, custom builders and commercial developers via its direct sales force and a network of referring architects and designers. Axel Johnson Inc. acquired 50 percent of Mountain Lumber Company in 2007.
