urban
salvage A retail mecca for architects and owner-builders seeking
alternatives to mainstream flooring options. Manager Andy
Mineur has a colourful background in building and recycling to
support his present role. An experienced cabinet-maker, he
spent many years building solid timber kitchens from recycled
woods. One interesting chapter in his life as a carpenter was
the resurrection of an old timber pub in Queensland -
relocated to a waterfront site on the back of a low-loader.
Andy knows timber and loves it like most 'woodies' do. He is a
capable advisor for flooring and furniture timbers. The
dynamic showroom at Spotswood was unique in the 90s and has
become a much-copied classic. Visit soon.
