Wow! We were so impressed with Born Again Barns and Lumber Co.! They have a great selection of all types and sizes of planks and lumber. Tammy could not have been more helpful in giving us suggestions and sharing her expertise for our project. This is a family-owned business, so you get their one-on-one undivided attention. They will cut your boards on site. They even delivered all of our planks. We highly recommend Born Again Barns. We’ll be back.
Jim and Tammy are exceptional to work with! They are passionate about their craft, friendly, honest, and very hard-working. I highly recommend Born Again Barns for any wood slab project you may have!
My wife and I have been to Born again barns multiple times now. Weve worked with both Tammy and Jeff and each time the customer service has been excellent. They have the best selection and best prices around.
Jim is a great guy to work with as a contractor I am very happy with the selection of a slab I have purchased from him for a job, I am looking forward to working on another project and purchasing my materials from him
I worked with Jim, Tammy and Co. to find the right piece of live edge for a custom standing desk I built.Everyone working was respectful, patient, and knowledgeable through the whole process, and worked diligently to address any of my concerns in picking the right piece and help me get this massive slab home.If you are at all interested in doing live edge work in the Chicago area, look no further! These folks will treat you like family.
Love the reclaimed look we decided to try Born Again Barns and Lumber to do some floating shelves in our family room. We had a great experience and they exceeded our expectations. It was exactly what we wanted.
They are simply the best! My husband and I have an old home, and we have hired many companies for work in the past. Born Again Barns was by far the best and FAVORITE experience we have ever had. They were responsive and professional every step of the way. The world needs more people like them!
Awesome!! Great service and helpful advice... we had a small project where we wanted to do some floating shelves... they gave us advice on how to do it inexpensively... we found an awesome old board that came from across from Wrigley...... they have beautiful boards... and such nice folks..
Very nice staff. Jeff spent time walking me around and suggesting some very nice boards.I ended up taking home more than I came for since prices were very fair and my money went further than I expected.I will definitely be back.
Primarily walnut slabs in stock.I thought prices were on the expensive side. $3500 for a walnut slab used for a dining room table. And that doesnt include table legs. Decent selection, but bring an open pocketbook.That being said seem like nice people.I wish them the best.
This place is great! Today was the second time purchasing barn wood off of them. They have be nice, accommodating, and prices are great. Far more reasonably then local competitors!
I have worked with Tammy and Jim since the begining, they are a complete representation of what it means to have integrity, honesty, and vision. I have known Jim for over 24 years and he is as honorable as they come. Tammy is awesome to work with and is extremely resourceful when unique projects present challenges.
Great time with responding through messaging. Picked up some live edge for a custom mirror frame. Walked us through our options, very good price on what we wanted. Will go back in the future with our next project.
I live in Chicago and purchasing materials from Born Again Barns is worth every minute of the hour driver to Antioch. Kind owners with deep knowledge — they won’t steer you wrong.
Jim and Tammy are so easy to work with! Very communicative when making appointments and selecting pieces. We went in for slabs and came out with more than we were looking for!
Craftsmanship from days gone by. Each piece of wood has been carefully repurposed for individual use in unlimited creations. BAB will either create your one of a kind masterpiece or purchase material for your own project. Call to visit in person or watch for an Open House.
I am a contractor and I build a lot of custom pieces for my customers. I have found that born-again barns Has the widest selection, best prices and Tammy and Jim are extremely helpful.
Great company to work with. I’ve purchased a lot from these guys to build things for around the house.Recently purchased more wood to build my wine rack.Thanks for the great service
They were nice and helped us find exactly what we were looking for! And decent prices too. We are so excited to start our next project with the beautiful piece of live wood.
We transformed the entry of our home and our fireplace work reclaimed barn wood. It’s functional and now the centerpiece of the room. Thank you Born Again Barns!!!!!
Born Again caught my attention on craigslist! I chatted with Tammy and made my position know about False Servants and dishonest people before I decided to go meet Jim and purchase 1 nice Red Cedar log for one of my unique creations. My creation is so AWESOME a friend I have known over 40 years son decided to make one himself and followed my lead, took my referral and used Born Agains services. Unfortunately Jeff the employee there tried to price gouge my referral and even more disturbing the owners made the mistake to turn a blind eye and fabricate a different story. Then erased my truthful comments about the situation on Instagram. I reached out to Tammy by text on her cell phone but her silence is deafening!!!Im intolerant to dishonest people so I will give this company the lowest possible rating and suggest you either go elsewhere or be very careful who you deal with there!!!
Jim and Tammy are wonderful. The have a great selection of reclaimed wood, live edge wood and other recycled farm finds.
Love born again barns! We have purchased barn wood and a love edge slab from them! You never know what you will find!
Nice people to buy from. Very helpful in helping select the ship lap I needed for a small project. I will be back for my next project.
Cool stuff. Jim and Tami are very helpful.

2021-08-07Highly recommend Born Again Lumbers. These guys are so knowledgeable and will help you find the perfect reclaimed wood for you project. They took their time to figure out exactly what we were looking for and helped us stay in budget. We finally finished our build for our living room and this mantle is a show stopper. Will definitely be coming back for our future projects.

2020-07-03My husband and I always try to support local business, and working with Born Again Barns in Antioch didnt disappoint. We are remodeling our kitchen and wanted a custom butcher block countertop for our island. What we got is a gorgeous, one of a kind statement peice for our new kitchen. From discussing the project to picking out the wood and helping us create our countertop, Born Again Barns and Lumber Co made the process simple and stress free. We absolutely love the countertop and highly recommend them!

2020-11-14I texted Tammy inquiring about a mantel. She graciously offered to have someone meet us on Sunday in order to accommodate our schedule. Today, we met with Jeff who was amazing. Very knowledgeable. Listened to what we were looking for and said he had the perfect barn beam. He was right! We were pressed for time since our contractor needed to install it asap so Jeff volunteered to cut and sand it for us today- on his day off. It is absolutely beautiful and exactly what we wanted. Once installed, I will post the picture. We highly recommend Jeff and Tammy and Born Again Barns. Thanks so much!

2019-03-07I bought a beautiful spalted maple board from them, which I turned into a floating shelf under my television. One of the guys even suggested I have them cut the board in half length-ways to get two shelves out of it. His input was very thoughtful & helpful!I put a Tung oil finish on it and hung it myself, so it was cheaper than having it totally finished by them. Some of the board is a little warped, but I think it adds character! They have a lot of beautiful pieces of wood to choose from & they will make it work for your space.I believe theyre opening a display room to sell already-made pieces of furniture and shelves. But you can also pay for them to custom-make something for you. I saw some pieces they finished, and they were beautiful!! I will definitely be back.

2019-12-21We purchased and had a 6”x 6” wooden beam installed above our fireplace. We are so happy with the result! It looks amazing and we love that the wood has history. Stopping by the workshop in Antioch was perfect as well. We were able to pick our wood and saw some of the amazing woodworking projects that are under way. I highly recommend using them!

2020-03-17My husband and I just left this company. Wow I cant say enough how wonderful the staff and owners are. They are so patient, knowledgable, and helpful. The prices are awesome especially compared to other nearby places like All American Reclaim. I will recommend if you are looking for anything wood you check them out first. They also make beautiful pieces and can custom make anything you can dream of.

2020-07-15My husband and I went in to find some rustic lumber to cover a steel post in our basement. I wasn’t quite sure what to expect. This place is a real treat! It’s like an antique store for wood! My husband isn’t really fond of old wood, but he was a trooper and we walked out with 4 really cool, hand picked pieces of lumber! My husbands imagination is conjuring up all kinds if ideas! Thanks to Jeff and friends at Born Again Barns and Lumber Co. for a really cool and interesting shopping experience! Lonna and Karl
