Deconstruction is the new demolition—preserve history, reduce waste, and reclaim value one board at a time.
In this groundbreaking guide, author Bob Falk introduces the art and science of unbuilding: the careful dismantling of structures to recover valuable materials for reuse.
Whether you're a builder, architect, preservationist, or sustainability advocate, this book shows how salvaging old-growth lumber, vintage hardware, and architectural details can be both environmentally responsible and economically smart.
With practical advice, real-world case studies, and a deep respect for craftsmanship, Unbuilding offers a compelling alternative to the landfill mindset—and a blueprint for building a more sustainable future.
Inside you’ll find:
Step-by-step guidance on planning and executing a deconstruction project
Tips for identifying and reclaiming valuable materials
Tools and techniques for safe and efficient dismantling
Strategies for marketing and reusing salvaged components
Inspiring examples of architectural salvage in action
Whether you're taking down a barn, remodeling a home, or sourcing materials for a new project, this book will help you do it with purpose, precision, and respect for the past.
