Deconstruction & Reclaiming Building Materials

Josh Johnson
  • Brentwood, TN
Posted

I have a 1950s ranch home in Nashville that will be gutted and renovated with a focus on deep energy retrofit and building envelope improvements. As such, many of the finishes and fixtures will be removed. I've looked for a "deconstruction" crew to carefully remove floors, windows, plumbing fixtures, and even exterior brick veneer which could be reused on another home. Also contacted the local Habitat to see if they wanted to claim any of these materials. Haven't had any luck whatsoever. I would hate for these materials to go to waste; they are in good condition. 

Any advice to recycle/reuse these materials? Or any house flippers in the Nashville / Middle Tennessee area who might like to come take some material for free?
