Should you be a Manomin Customer?

Do you take pride in your home and/or business? Would you like to create a look and feel — an experience — people remember after they’ve visited? Does the richness of real wood appeal to you? Do you settle for nothing less than the best? If you answered, “yes” to any or all of these questions, then Manomin Resawn Timbers may be the right company for you.



Known for reclaimed wood, particularly wide-plank antique wood flooring, Manomin provides customers with truly exceptional products. In this video, Mark Clasen and Sarah Londerville, co-owners of Manomin Resawn Timbers, talk about working with clients.

Whether people find us at tradeshows like the Midwest Home Show, direct mail, our website or even Twitter, they come to Manomin because they’re looking for the best in antique flooring or extraordinary reclaimed antique wood finishes on furniture or other custom projects. Our customers are designers, builders and architects as well as end users who are building or remodeling a home or business. They bring their blueprints and photos, and we bring years of experience and a variety of reclaimed wood options to consult on and create the perfect solution for each person.

Each style of reclaimed wood has it’s own look and feel, from reclaimed antique oak that we skip-plane to wide-plank Douglas fir coming out of a timber stock to antique elm for a more formal look. We need to understand your style and the experience you’re trying to create, and then we can bring the right reclaimed wood to the table — or mantle, or staircase, or paneling, or floor — whatever the case may be.

We invite you to watch the video or look through the gallery, but to truly experience the Manomin difference, you have to come to our show room at 15152 Freeland Avenue in Hugo, MN. We look forward to meeting you soon!

From Wood-fired Ovens to Wood Floors

Punch Pizza — Stadium Village
Using the same centuries-old techniques the Neapolitan masters used to create delicious Italian pies, Minneapolis-based Punch Pizza is one of a few pizzerias outside of Naples, Italy to be a member of Vera Pizza Napoletana. A requirement of authentic Neapolitan pizzerias is that they must use wood-burning, bell-shaped brick ovens that can cook a perfect pizza pie in 90 seconds!
 

To ensure their stores have an old-world Italian feel worthy of the authentic techniques they use to make their pizza, Punch Pizza turns to Manomin Resawn Timbers for antique timber flooring. At Manomin, we too are dedicated to the traditions and skills of our craft — milling the antique timbers with a saw mill, drying it in a kiln, planing it, fabricating it in our shop and then hand-sanding and staining it to the perfect finish. 
 

Featured in all seven of Punch Pizza’s Twin Cities locations, Manomin most recently helped with the Punch Neapolitan Pizza – Stadium Village location at 802 Washington Ave SE in Minneapolis. 


A striking exterior door that we crafted from hand-hewn timber skins invites guest in, and a one-of-a-kind antique wooden door handle completes the look. Upon entry, our huge 22-foot long vintage timber community table greets customers, and a welcoming antique Douglas Fir floor sets the stage with gorgeous 3-inch wide planks. 



More reclaimed Douglas Fir (salvaged from old industrial warehouses) adds charm to tables and benches. Tabletops crafted out of hardwood from a central Wisconsin dairy barn built in the 1850s complements the weathered antique panel wainscoting to add to the old-world dining experience. 
 

So we invite you to enjoy the world’s finest San Marzano tomatoes, fresh mozzarella and top-secret dough that forms the foundation of a Punch Pizza cooked to perfection in the wood-fired oven! But please, make sure you take a look around and enjoy the whole experience that Manomin helped to create.
