Reclaimed Gym Floor Tables
The Inspiration Behind Our Creations
Our journey into creating Reclaimed Gym Floor Tables began with a simple yet profound realization: the potential for upcycling and repurposing is all around us, especially in the materials that many consider waste. Inspired by customer requests and our passion for sustainability, we embarked on a mission to transform discarded gym floors into pieces of functional art. The transformation of these materials into beautiful, custom furniture pieces not only gives them a new lease on life but also allows us to contribute to a more sustainable world.
Sourcing Our Materials for Basketball Court Tables
We go to great lengths to source our materials locally whenever possible, embracing the challenge of turning reclaimed gym floors, predominantly hard maple, into stunning tabletops. Our last project involved sourcing raw materials from a vendor in Ohio, highlighting our commitment to finding the best quality materials, even if it means reaching out beyond our immediate locality.
Reclaimed Gym Floor Tables Customization
The magic of our Reclaimed Gym Floor Tables doesn’t just lie in their history or the craftsmanship that brings them to life; it’s also deeply rooted in the stories they begin to tell the moment a customer shares their vision with us. Our clients come from all walks of life, each bringing a palette of preferences as unique as their stories. Some are drawn to the vibrant, bold primary colors that echo the lively energy of a bustling gymnasium, finding joy in the surprise and randomness that each strip of reclaimed flooring brings. They revel in the unexpected patterns and the burst of color that makes each table not just a piece of furniture, but a centerpiece of conversation and admiration.
On the other end of the spectrum, we have customers who seek a more subdued elegance. They envision their gym floor table as a homage to cherished memories or affiliations, often requesting the colors of their alma mater or favorite sports team. This careful selection creates a subtle, yet deeply personal connection between the table and its owner, transforming it into a treasured heirloom that speaks volumes without saying a word.
Creativity and Collaboration
Our customization process is a dance of creativity and collaboration. It begins with a conversation, an exchange of ideas where dreams start to take form. We listen, we suggest, and together, we embark on a journey of creation. As we piece together each strip of reclaimed gym flooring, we’re not just assembling a table; we’re weaving together a tapestry of individuality and memory, color and form.

The Finishing Touch
Given the typical wear and tear a tabletop endures, we finish our pieces with either several layers of epoxy or polyurethane which not only protects but enhances the depth and beauty of the wood, much like the gym floors you remember. This attention to detail and quality ensures that each table not only serves as a functional piece but also as a lasting work of art.
Care for Your Table
Maintaining the beauty of your gym floor table is as simple as dusting and wiping with a damp cloth. This straightforward care routine ensures your table remains a stunning centerpiece for years to come.
The Craftsmanship Journey
The process of creating these tables is both a challenge and a joy. Working with hard maple, a durable and beautiful hardwood, presents unique challenges – from dealing with missing tongues to extracting nails and staples. Yet, assembling these pieces, each with its own history and character, is incredibly rewarding. It’s a meticulous process of selecting, planning, and piecing together each strip to create a cohesive and visually striking tabletop. Every table we create is a testament to the beauty of upcycling and our commitment to craftsmanship.
