I visited Earthwise Architectural Salvage today, and it's truly an inspiring place for anyone looking to repurpose old materials or spark creativity. The yard is filled with antique, vintage, and unique architectural pieces—perfect for DIY enthusiasts and treasure hunters alike. I came looking for something that my Wisteria vine could climb, and while exploring, I found a beautiful wine rack made from cedar wood. It smelled amazing and had a rustic charm that would look great indoors or out. I also stumbled upon an old wind spinner with slightly bent blades—imperfect, but full of character. With a little bit of fixing, it’ll make a lovely outdoor decoration. Lastly, I picked up a unique piece that will serve as a great decoration for my garden. The staff was friendly and helpful, happy to chat and offer suggestions. This place is a goldmine if you enjoy giving old things new life. Highly recommended for anyone who loves creative projects or just browsing for one-of-a-kind items!

This place is amazing! ? This up-cycling store has a ton of salvage materials for a remodeling, decorating, or whatever your mind can think up! It was very well organized, and the employees were friendly and helped load a water heater tank my friend picked up.

This shop has a lot of great inventory, and I really appreciate their mission around salvaging and reusing items. That said, my experience as a shopper could have been better. I felt more like an interruption than a customer while interacting with staff. The person at the front desk seemed more engaged in a personal conversation about her dog's breed with someone who seemed more like a friend than a shopper, and when she directed me to a more knowledgeable staff member for more detailed questions, the interaction still felt unwelcoming. The counter area was cluttered, hard for me to stand at given the unnecessary obstacles at your feet, and overall it didn’t feel like there was much pride in customer service or presentation of the POS space. I guess I get it if they want to be a basic salvage store, but I think there is more opportunity here to be better. I did ultimately find what I needed, so if customer experience is not a high priority for you, this shop will likely meet your needs. I plan to return, but I’ll probably do more independent research ahead of time so I don’t need to rely on staff for guidance.
