Reuse. Rehabilitate. Restore.

Reclaimed Home collaborates with the building industry and home dwellers to keep materials out of landfills. Our business is architectural salvage. Our vision is to make home restoration accessible for every income level while educating the public on how to reuse old house parts.

We are taking on two unique roles. The business firstly provides consultation services regarding the repurposing and responsible dissemination of materials in unwanted existing structures. By receiving photographs or completing site visits of the home/building, our team is able to put together a thorough analysis of the house and its parts. This includes the worth of all house pieces/materials that can be salvaged and where they can be sold, donated or put on consignment. Furthermore, the analysis also directs the home/building owner to businesses in their area that can complete responsible and green building/home dissemination as well as all other services necessary to ensure as little as possible ends up in landfills. What can be preserved architecturally benefits the homeowner and their community.

Aside from Reclaimed Home offering services in responsible green demolition of homes and building, we also specialize in the procurement, repurposing and preservation of architectural antiques that will be sold in our own retail space. In addition we will be working with a team of interior designers, artists and architects to provide the service of redesigning commercial, residential interior spaces and furniture with the use of the salvaged materials we sell. Our inventory will consist of pieces that will drastically vary in cost in order to ensure that all home dwellers have access to beautiful architectural artifacts and antiques.

Third generation Brooklynite Phyllis Bobb grew up in apartment buildings where repairing something meant calling the super. She purchased her first home in Park Slope in 1994 with her handy husband and has become a fairly skilled DIY Diva herself.

It was somewhere between the third and forth home restoration that Phyllis discovered the joys of architectural salvage. She was so inspired by preserving old house details that she gave up her day job as a photographer and devoted her career to reclaiming antique items.

Phyllis is a licensed real estate agent with an eye for interior design and furniture reincarnation. When she is not restoring, staging and selling her own homes, she keeps busy by blogging about real estate, houses, DIY and building material. She also creates functional home decor items out of found objects.

Cassidy Gardner grew up in an old farmhouse in East Corinth, Vermont where floor to ceiling her father filled their home with salvaged pieces that he collected throughout his time in New York City. The culmination of all of these antiques and artifacts became Great American Salvage Co., an architectural salvage company that became well known throughout the Northeast. The same passion for salvage was passed onto Cassidy who has started her own collection that she is now passionate about passing onto others. She has learned repurposing and preservation techniques from her father and through on site visits throughout New York.
