Product Summary
In our experience the densest and best heart pine and heart cypress logs - that produce the best hardwood flooring, were the ones that slipped loose from the makeshift rafts and sank to the river bottom. The cool waters preserve the logs in a pristine condition so that the resulting lumber is not only a more stable and durable wood, but also a wood that is more alive and richer in color, just as it would have been 200 years ago.
Construction and Materials
The Goodwin Company, a name synonymous with enduring quality in the world of hardwood flooring, offers a distinctive product crafted from genuine heart pine. This material is renowned for its exceptional hardness, stability, and a rich, classic aesthetic that deepens beautifully with age.
The construction of Goodwin's heart pine flooring centers on utilizing the heartwood of longleaf pine trees. This specific part of the tree is denser and more resistant to decay, contributing to the longevity and durability of the final product. The milling process ensures that each plank is precisely shaped, ready for installation. While specific construction techniques like tongue-and-groove or end-matching are standard in hardwood flooring for ease of assembly and structural integrity, the core material remains the star.
Materials Used:
- Primary Material: Genuine Longleaf Pine Heartwood. This is the most resilient and stable section of the pine tree, prized for its tight grain and superior density.
- Natural Variations: The inherent beauty of heart pine is celebrated through its natural variations in color and grain. Expect a spectrum ranging from rich, deep reds and browns to lighter, golden hues, often featuring prominent, distinctive grain patterns.
- Finishing: While the website emphasizes the natural beauty of the wood, standard finishing practices for hardwood floors typically involve protective coatings. These can include sealers and topcoats that enhance durability, protect against wear, and contribute to the overall sheen of the flooring. The specific finishes offered by Goodwin Heart Pine Company would complement and safeguard the natural characteristics of the heart pine.
The use of heart pine is not just a choice of material; it's a commitment to a product with a storied past. Sourced from mature trees, this flooring carries a unique character, often showcasing the patina and resilience developed over decades, if not centuries, of growth.

Options-Styles
The Goodwin Heart Pine Company offers a distinguished selection of hardwood flooring, primarily focusing on the unique beauty and enduring quality of reclaimed heart pine. Their style options are centered around the inherent characteristics of this historic material, emphasizing its natural variations and the rich patina developed over time.
The core style is defined by the use of reclaimed Longleaf Pine, a species renowned for its exceptional density, tight grain, and naturally occurring oils. This results in flooring that is not only visually striking but also incredibly durable and resistant to wear.
Within the overarching style of reclaimed heart pine, Goodwin Company offers variations that cater to different aesthetic preferences and project requirements. These stylistic distinctions are largely driven by the specific characteristics of the reclaimed lumber itself.
- Original Surface: This option showcases the wood in its most authentic state, preserving the markings and texture from its previous life. It can include saw marks, nail holes, and other character that tells the story of the wood's history. This creates a rustic and timeworn appearance.
- Resawn Surface: For a cleaner, yet still character-rich look, the resawn surface option provides a smoother finish while retaining the distinctive grain patterns and variations of heart pine. This offers a more refined aesthetic while still embracing the reclaimed nature of the material.
- Kiln-Dried: While not strictly a visual style, the kiln-dried process influences the final appearance by stabilizing the wood. This ensures consistent moisture content, which contributes to the longevity and stability of the flooring, indirectly impacting its presentation over time.
The inherent color palette of Goodwin Heart Pine flooring ranges from warm amber and golden hues to deeper, reddish-brown tones. These variations are a natural consequence of the wood's age and the environment in which it was originally grown and subsequently reclaimed. The milling process and any chosen finishing treatments can further enhance or subtly alter these natural colors.
The plank widths available also contribute to the overall style. Goodwin Company typically offers a range of plank widths, allowing for customization to create a more traditional or contemporary feel. Wider planks tend to create a grander, more expansive look, while narrower planks can lend a more classic or intricate appearance.
