How to Care for Reclaimed Lumber

At The Lumber Baron, we tell our customers that one of the advantages of using reclaimed lumber is that it has already stood the test of time. Because of that, it is not as susceptible to rot, insects, or mildew as new growth lumber would be. With that said, there are still some best practices that should be used to ensure that your reclaimed lumber continues to be durable and look good for years to come. Additionally, sealing exposed exterior lumber helps prevent mildew and mold from growing on horizontal surfaces, keeping things like decks safer for the whole family to use.
