    Unhappy Looking for old Baltic Pine in melbourne

    A builder convinced me to get new Baltic pine for the floors as the colour will age over time. The problem is, half the room is old Baltic pine (140 yrs old) and I have spent a fortune for the new boards and for the floors to be sanded and the room to look like crap!

    I am desperate to find old Baltic pine to replace the new boards, and I am also unsure how much to pay per lineal metre. I need 150mm wide

    I am in the south eastern suburbs and will travel within Melbourne, if anyone can help!

    G'day,
    You could try the Timberzoo in Moolap near Geelong, they have alot of older timbers.
    Timberzoo - Recycled Timber, Geelong, Melbourne, Flooring, Reclaimed, Floorboards.

    Cheers,
