Best Architectural Salvage Store Wilmington Near Me

4worldlovers: The Historic Wilmington Foundation works every day to keep historic buildings intact and in place. But when a structure is facing demolition, Legacy Architectural Salvage serves as the best-case option in a worst-case scenario. When a building is unable to be saved, Legacy steps in to save irreplaceable pieces of our past.

Our team of staff and volunteers deconstruct old buildings, salvaging wood, doors, windows, siding, and other architectural elements. These materials are then sold (at salvage prices!) to members of our community, who utilize them in restoration and rehabilitation projects. An operation of HWF, Legacy Architectural Salvage diverts tons of wood from the landfill, and places these salvaged elements right back into area homes, helping to preserve our region’s historic fabric.

Legacy Architectural Salvage is located in the same building as Stevens Ace Hardware, in the back warehouse portion. We’re open Wednesdays through Saturdays from 9AM-2PM.

A frequent destination for contractors, DIY-ers, and treasure hunters, Legacy Architectural Salvage is Wilmington’s retail source for historic windows, doors, flooring, and more. We also sell donated vintage/antique furniture and home décor! If character, charm, and history define your style, visit Legacy Architectural Salvage often to check out our ever-changing inventory.

From mantles to lighting to cabinets and sinks, if it’s old, chances are good we can add it to our inventory. Accepted donations must be: 1) 60+ years old (pre-1960s) and 2) building materials/elements and home decor (we do not take clothing).

Blending tradition with modern know-how, the ability to create beautiful, high-quality, custom-built furniture seems to be a lost art. However, at Martin Custom Woodworking & Antique Restoration this art is thriving.

Curtis Martin has combined both his skills learned growing up in a family of woodworkers, and his wood science knowledge gained from his unique curriculum at NCSU to create a business that provides high-quality craftsmanship and exceptional customer service. He is fortunate to get paid for something he loves so much. Sawdust, he says, runs through his veins.
