Matrka Deconstruction

REUSE-REPURPOSE-RECYCLE If planning to remodel, deconstruction can be utilized in the first stage of the process where we take the space down to the framework.

During a complete deconstructionwe systematically reverse the construction, from roof to foundation in order to salvage all reusable materials. Deconstruction is the sustainable alternative to demolition. Our process diverts materials from the waste dump. As well as providing a more affordable source of building materials for future use. There are two parts of deconstruction. The first consists of

This barn was slated for decomposition or a big bonfire. Thankfully we were given the opportunity to deconstruct and salvage the entire barn, taking something old and unused and once again bringing it back to life in something new. Thanks Connor for all your help on this project, you were definitely my linchpin.

Brian Kocak wanted to make a one of a kind table for his girlfriend's birthday. Using oak barn rafters for the table top we incorporated an 12"x12" oak beam for the base. Brian was there for the whole process, helping put it all together. Brian did the base himself as well as weld the frame that supports it. Job well done Brian

Eric Taylor at Frontier Woodworking used some of our maple for two custom barn doors a client wanted in her home. This maple comes from the same barn in Marysville Ohio that the mini-bar was made of. Eric designed the doors with one side cleaned and the other left in it's natural state. It's amazing to see how much work goes into this process but the end result speaks for itself.

Demo It Yourself Danny Matrka learned more than a thing or two from his old man, a veteran Columbus contractor. Chief among them: it’s really easy to just throw things away.

These table tops were specifically made for a scotch bar called Manifesto. They are made entirely from reclaimed maple which was extracted from a barn deconstructed in Marysville, Ohio. We followed this wood through the entire process, from extraction to reclamation this wood is now something new, it now has a purpose
