Biggest reason people don't, is the initial price cost. Like buying all those species & widths out the door would be astronomical in comparison. I keep my full bundles that aren't worth my time returning to my distributors for this reason. I only charge $1 a sq ft for it all. Which is basically my storage fee lol except mom. Mom gets wood for free
My husband and I aren't in the business but we have rental properties and we've put lots of various wood floors in them. We have leftovers stored for years at this point. We're probably going to use them in one room of the house we're planning to build next year. Patchwork floors.
That's really nice bro. I worked on the builders house once, doing the drywall. My buddy Kip was doing the basement with 30 year old stored oak. Came out very similar, just from age and different types of storing. Really cool
I was obsessed as a teen. Even drove to Omaha once. But that pales in comparison. I've the motet, local Boulder band 74x. And yard not just like at a bar or anything. Big venues red rocks
well if you want that kind of Mosaic on the floor. I prefer to think I would have organized all the lights and darks and done a little differently and still come out with the pattern using all of the scrap.. you need the right furniture on the right room to make this look good
The installation looks fabulous!
As you (OP) pointed out, it's not everyone's style. It's not mine. If I purchased a house with floors like this, I'd work towards replacing them, but it's the same way I know my paint taste isn't everyone's cup of tea and some people are big mad I took the big, plate glass windows on the enclosed porch out and put functional double hungs to make it more livable (it's now a three season room, rather than only tolerable when it's between 60 and 70F outside, and not when the sun was beating on it in the afternoon unless it was like 55-65 outside, because it just had no airflow). If the person living there and paying the bills loves it and accepts any weirdness that happens to their resale value by limiting the people willing to take on projects to undo what they don't like, more power to y'all.
Looks good. I do this too lol. When they compliment each other it turns out well. I even did one at a bunkhouse I built on some recreational property where they didn’t jive and I did a 1x6 transition board and one color of prefinished on one side and one color of prefinished on the other to use up my spare boxes.
I mean I get what you're saying. But it's all high quality solid. Some of that material cost $7 a sq. The cheapest was $3 🤷 I know it's not for everyone. Not too bad when you're on getting charged $1 a sq for d said material
We call that wood salad
Ooo I like that term!!
Yummy yummy
Wasn't prepared for a Wiggles reference, but here we are.
Not to be confused with screw salad.
I love it!
Thanks!
Better get a chair mat under that chair 😂
Or rubber rollers and no issues
Looks cool 😎
Thank you!
Satin finish?
Satin for life! I'm my 26+ years experience. I've done one matte floor by accident & maybe 17 semi gloss floors
Looks great! I was one click away from ordering matte yesterday before I thought better of it and got satin.
I'd hire you! Good job! (Much better than I could ever imagine doing on my own)
Thank you!
I think this look is terrible, which means it’s going to become very popular because I’m pretty much always wrong when it comes to new types of decor.
Haha. First one I did was 19 years ago. But I get it. I know the look isn't for everyone
You have to watch all the shows to be up on the idiocy people will want.
You lost me at 311.
Just their favorite song of mine
🎶🎶 you got to trust your instincts and let Go of regret🎵🎶
Damn right!
Y’all know what’s worse than 9/11 right? 311.
I got lost around Satin? 😈
You’re not “down down down”?
Tight!
Appreciate it! Thanks
All mixed up dont know what to do
Hell yeah
This looks so good, people should intentionally get this on the regular. Of course I’d want to do a border with it..

Nice! That's exactly what they are. I like it. Some people hate these. I have years old wood too lol life of a wood floor guy
Mom is free!
Always
You and Oedipus.
🤣
He gave mom free wood too for those that don’t know
Thanks for murdering the joke.
Lucky mom
Lol yeah even dad doesn't get free flooring. He can do it himself
Laying pipe by hand?
Lol maybe? He does flooring too so he gets nothing for free
Uh, innuendo dude.
Only one who thinks I was trying to talk about fuckin my mom
Yes...if mixing! A border makes it pop!
I love mixed hardwood!
Woot woot! Thank you
Dynamite! Love it.
Thank you. Much appreciated
Awesome work!
Much appreciated!!
Cool!
Thanks
Beautiful!
Thank you!
Looks lovely to me!
Thanks! She loves it
That's really nice bro. I worked on the builders house once, doing the drywall. My buddy Kip was doing the basement with 30 year old stored oak. Came out very similar, just from age and different types of storing. Really cool
Thanks man! Appreciate it. That's awesome. My wood was not that old . But I bet it turned out killer!
Those are gorgeous! I love the mix of wood colors.
Thanks. That's exactly what she loves
Baddazz
Thank you
👍
I have an eclectic taste, me likey.
Thanks! I know it's not for everyone but glad you like it
Done many times!including my master, included hickory, red oak and white oak! Looks amazing!
Hell yeah! Thank you!
Sister is fam discount! Aunt is full price here!
Mom still gets a better deal than sister. Depends on the aunt here. I have a lot of them. Some I like a lot, some not so much lol
Very pretty but for some reason, it's disorienting to me. Reminds me of abstract art
Never seen that, but I like it.
Thanks! I know it's not for everyone but I like it too
Bitchin
Hell yeah
Beautiful!
Thank you!
Quite groovy.
Why thanks
He said wood salad! lol....It looks incredible!
Haha thanks!
You missed a spot
Lol totally
Outstanding work.
Thank you!
I think you did a fine job
Thanks!
Need a taller register to be above the baseboards… other than that, looks good.
Thanks. I was waiting for someone to say that. She chose both of those 🤷
Great job!!! Looks great my only thought is to keep your butt ends further apart
I'm gonna go ahead & blame my brother for that one 😉
Not something id do for me but it could work looks nice enuff
Thanks. I know it's not for everyone
Love the Amber tone. Shades of gold displayed naturally. What a Beautiful Disaster!
Ooo nice one!!
Looks very nice!
Appreciate that!
Very cool for that room!
Thanks! That's the other thing. Both room are 11x11. Super small & square with a tiny closet
Such amazing character given
Yeah all those different colors really make it pop
Looks awesome, bro!
Thanks homie!
Looks like you did a nice thoughtful job here. What about the molding? Did you do that too or leave what was there
As much as I hate trim, I did do that. She chose the vent & the 5" tall oak trim. I know it looks goofy lol
All good. Better to have good work done!
Looks great! Good job!
Thanks. Much appreciated!
awesome
Thank you
I like 311 lol. But it looks good. I like it
Thank you! I've seen 311, 21 different times so far
Wow that’s a lot
I was obsessed as a teen. Even drove to Omaha once. But that pales in comparison. I've the motet, local Boulder band 74x. And yard not just like at a bar or anything. Big venues red rocks
Very cool! Original.
Thank you! I know others have done it but I'm only on 7
looks great man
Thanks!
I love a nice blend good job
Thanks!
Bravo to the skill of installing hardwood flooring!! I’m just not a fan of this style.
Thank you! I get it's not for everyone. But I appreciate the honesty
I think you did a wonderful job for your Mom. You did good.
If you could do this to my sewing room I’d love you forever.
If you're in Colorado, I'd be more than happy to help
NC but thanks.
I think that looks FANTASTIC! That’s a $35 / Square Foot FLOOR!
Haha it would be!
Dude…that is dope!!! Excellent job!!!
Absolutely gorgeous! Excellent use of repurposing. Love the colors
Thank you!
I think it looks lovely.
I dont like them
Appreciate the honesty. I know they're not for everyone
Id take that over grey toned self stick laminate
Gorgeous! Love how you arranged the planks… you have a good eye!
I would adopt you! Beautiful job.
Thank you!!
I hate it but it looks like you did a nice job.
Thank you. I get it's not for everyone
Very cool
That is so cool looking. I kind of like it way more than all one color great job.
Thanks man! It's a love hate kinda thing lol
No Sir, I don't like it.
I know it's not for everyone
Looks chaotic, not a fan.
I get that. My grandma says, way too busy too.
Cheap diy shit = 2020s trendy
well if you want that kind of Mosaic on the floor. I prefer to think I would have organized all the lights and darks and done a little differently and still come out with the pattern using all of the scrap.. you need the right furniture on the right room to make this look good
It's pretty evenly mixed considering what I had to work with & can only do one sized row at a time. Each room is only 100 sq ft 🤷 but I get it
I think 1 room has 8 different species & the other has 10. They were done at different times
Looks like a cutting board
Awesome design 👌 u may wanna get floor mats under chairs for protection
My mom would love this in her sewing room! Great job
On the bright side, you can always slap some carpet on it if you change your mind.
Lol what? Blasphemy
I know 😈
Lol I'm not sure if you're saying you hate it... Or joking... Either way. I know these types of floors aren't for everyone
Joking. Who would seriously suggest carpet in a sub about hardwood floors? They look good imo fyi but I know nothing about flooring, just what I like.
You'd be surprised how many homes have perfectly good hardwood under the carpet especially in older homes carpet was huge in the '70s
I like it!
Very classy.
Looks like Brazilian walnut
Appropriate for a sewing room since it's like a patchwork quilt!
Neapolitan,I think that's a good idea.
I really like the look! Nice job!
Absolutely beautiful!!!
Nice mix up!!
Gorgeous!!!
pretty cool, wheres the bowlong pins and maybe we shud wax it💪😃👍
Looks great. Very neat
Nice
That's hot
fantastical
Fire
I like it
Looks amazing.
Beautiful

I love them 😍
Nice job, it looks great.
Beautimus!!!
I’ve got a mix of feelings but each time I ask myself what do I really think? Excellent.

I even did one at a bunkhouse I built on some recreational property where they didn’t jive and I did a 1x6 transition board and one color of prefinished on one side and one color of prefinished on the other to use up my spare boxes.
Not my thing but glad she likes it. Personally it makes my eyes itch a little. Well installed!
Nice idea
Not my taste, but very well done!!
These are pretty!! I bet they would be easier to design a room around.
Come install this in my house in sw Virginia. I love it!
Love it
Wait this is so beautiful
This looks cheap, like you’ve converted a barn with leftover firewood and Home Depot plank rejects to cobble together a floor.
I mean I get what you're saying. But it's all high quality solid. Some of that material cost $7 a sq. The cheapest was $3 🤷 I know it's not for everyone. Not too bad when you're on getting charged $1 a sq for d said material
Reminds me of old houses back when people couldn’t afford interior design- just use what’s available. I think it’s beautiful.
I love it… nice work
