Design Notes
Including nature’s elements in the home design remains a popular choice. Placing extra windows into the room to allow more light in or choosing eco-friendly options, such as granite countertops, are favored ways to accomplish this. Wood, however, remains the number one choice with most clients as it adds warmth and texture to the room. It also blends with multiple styles, including modern industrial and farmhouse. Even though there are numerous design benefits to incorporating wood into the design, not everyone has access to reclaimed wood or can afford to install it. Stikwood is the perfect solution. Let’s explore this amazing product more and why we chose to become an authorized dealer.

Common Questions About Stikwood.
Have a few questions? That’s okay. Here are a few answers to some of the more common questions.
- Does it need to be acclimated? Yes, just like wood flooring, but due to its small size, it does not take long. Usually, 48 to 72 hours is sufficient.
- How long will it stick? Until you get tired of it. The adhesive is rated for 10 years and will not go anywhere anytime soon.
- How thick is it? Reclaimed wood measures 3/16” thick, while the sustainable hardwood planks are ⅛” thick.
- What’s the width? Almost everything is 5″ wide except for their reclaimed barrel oak and reclaimed sports floor, which are 2″ wide.
- How do you clean it? Maintenance is as simple as turning on the vacuum cleaner and running it over with an attachment.
