Lovett Deconstruction & Salvage Shop in
Portland (OR)

Lovett just finished our kitchen deconstruction. Our home was left clean and dust free. They went above and beyond to protect the parts of our home not under construction. Their team was so nice and I'm going to miss having them here. If you are looking for a professional, kind and caring company for your project we would highly recommend them! Thank you again Lovett for taking such good care of us and our home!!

Their work is exceptional! Plastic was placed so that many areas were kept clean from debris. Most of all, the staff was very nice and helpful. Kudos to project manager - Zach and crew - Kevin, Nico and Compa.

An excellent spot for niche second-hand finds. Gorgeous event space featuring reclaimed materials, and a cute holiday market every fall.

Great customer service (thanks Allison)! Friendly people, well-curated selection. You might pay a little more, but the quality, organization and service make it worthwhile. Cool location too

Lovett Deconstruction is more than just a deconstruction company; their showroom and salvage shop have become a cherished Portland classic staple, deeply woven into the city's unique fabric of sustainability, creativity, and quirky charm. It's a place where the old finds new life, and where every salvaged item tells a story, making it a true reflection of Portland's ethos. I already send clients to them on a regular basis for unique decor and always recommend them for reclaimed lumber!

The Lovett Salvage Shop is one of the great wonders of the Pacific Northwest, both aesthetically and practically. They sell salvaged lumber, trim, doors, antique hardware, and home goods from the past that are very special and unique.

We rented their loft space for a 30th birthday party and it was perfect! We had about 30 people join us and we could have comfortably fit another 20. It was easy to bring in pizzas, cupcakes, and drinks, plus a wreath-making activity for this December birthday party. Alison even helped us with some set up before the birthday girl arrived -- thank you! Many guests commented on how cool the space was and enjoyed browsing the salvage shop on their way into the party. Highly recommend Lovett!

We had no knowledge this even existed. We were just driving by and it looked cool so we wanted to see what it was. Turns out, it's a whole amazing thing. First off they have saved all the cool stuff from reclaimed buildings. But that's not all, the store ALSO has the owners collections which are both eccentric and brilliant. Collection of 200+ vintage metal trucks... Check.... Dozens and dozens of different first aid kits... Check. Pencil sharpeners.... Keys... Fan blades.... Covers from old pull start lawn mowers.... Check. Check. And Check. They also have just fun stuff like a free photo/fortune telling booth. Pin ball. Portland grown coffee.... OH And a secret garden. Please, do yourself a favor and spend a few minutes at this shop, the people are wonderful and supporting local business is a must!

Our general contracting firm has worked with Lovett Deconstruction on dozens of projects over the past decade. Their professionalism, organization and cleanliness are second to none. I cannot recommend them highly enough!

What an awesome place! So fun to meander around, with incredible finds at some great prices. The folks were incredibly friendly and happy to answer our questions.

I called this place earlier in the week looking for a few doors of a unique size. The guy I talked to was really nice and went an looked for me and said he had a set of doors that might work and put them on hold for me. When I came in I realized the 2 doors he had weren't going to work but I'm really glad I had a reason to drive in and check this place out. The quality of what the sell here was amazing and the store it really well curated. It's the kind of store you go into knowing they will have exactly what you are looking for as well as numerous treasures you didn't know you needed. When I went in I was immediately greeted by a very nice lady and a gentleman that walked me back to the doors and showed me what they had on hold. The door is ended up not working out but I had a nice conversation with them. They explained the different grades of lumber they had. Their prices reflects the quality of the items they sell, their amazing service, and how well the store is put together. In other words you will likely pay a premium shopping here.

Lovett Decon & Salvage has, hands down, the most professional, friendly, respectful modus operandi values in place!!! Im impressed EVERY dang time they come to extract loot … They come prepared, quickly make a decisive plan & don’t waste any time. LOADS of Integrity Cudos Prompt, communicative, prepared, respectful, personable and professional

I called Lovett after visiting three other salvage places looking for an oddly-sized sash weight. Another establishment gave me their name and said if they didn’t have it, no one would - and they had it! Not only that, I called ahead and when I arrived the weights were pulled and waiting for me at the register. Lovett has a beautiful (incredibly organized) shop filled with salvage, antique pieces, and art. Even if you aren’t repairing a window or restoring your period bathroom it’s worth a look. I walked away with a great lamp I didn’t know I needed and a whole lot of inspiration. Every person I spoke with was kind and helpful and I can’t wait to go back!

Super cool, very friendly. Took my grandma here to look for some wood and had a blast

Really unique place. Staff are friendly and helpful. There's a lot of cool and unique stuff. Well worth a visit!

Lovett is a gem of a shop! The space itself is gorgeous and makes you want to meander, looking at every little thing. There is a personal touch to the merchandise that makes it feel like you are buying from family. Whether you are looking for sweet tchotchkes or beautiful lumber, you're going to find it here. Staff is helpful and interesting to chat with. Also, there is a wooden phone booth that tells fortunes. Does it get better than that?

Great stuff, beautifully displayed and organized AND lovely people to help you find what you didn't know you needed! This place is amazing with great finds and super creative repurposed items made into really cool stuff!

Fabulous gift and shopping market by Lovett Deconstruction & Salvage! So many incredible, local vendors, all with an eco-centric focus. Amazing craftsmanship, and talent; WOW! Can't wait for next year!

Staff were totally aloof. Didn't acknowledge me , as they walked by me numerous times ..taken aback by their rudeness .. Most objects were extremely overpriced Rarely give less than positive reviews , but I need to be real ...staff need to gain a little social skills

While we didn't walk out with a treasure, I'm adding Lovett Deconstruction to our list of drop-in salvage, second-hand, used treasure destinations. It's a great place to wander and enjoy.

Sarah at Lovett was very friendly and professional. She got me a quote quickly, touched base with me the week before the job and came the day of the job to make sure all was set for the actual demolition. Marco and Nico did most of the actually demolition; they did a great job, were friendly and professional, and left the site very tidy. I would definitely recommend Lovett Deconstruction!

Great selection of timber for your projects and the staff is super friendly.

I've used Lovett a few times for both bid and emergency projects. Each time they have been professional, timely, thorough and knowledgeable. Dan Horton helped me out with a repair today on a school project I've been needing to get closed out. He was communicative throughout the day, sent pictures and updates of their progress, called in the relevant inspections and made sure everything was done, documented and signed off on. This is my "go-to" company! I never have to worry about anything when they are on the job! 5 Stars!!!

I've had Lovett help me do some demo on a few projects & they do awesome work. Super fast & leave the place cleaner than it was when they arrived

My wife and I have hired Lovett Deconstruction on two occasions for two very different projects, one large and one small. The first time we worked with Lovett they did an extensive demo at our building. Their work included wall, ceiling, floor covering, and electrical demo. I recently hired Lovett for the second time to remove the carpet on the upper floor at our home. Scheduling this work was critical as it was a surprise for my wife as the work needed to be completed while she was away on business. Much to our delight we are now enjoying incredibly beautiful funky old fir floors at our home of 17 years. I can not express how pleased we were with Lovett Deconstruction on both occasions from start to finish. Lovett excels in communicating with their clients, is exceptional at scheduling, does quality work, the team works incredibly efficiently, and the crew members are very safety conscious. In both of our experiences Lovett Deconstruction left the spaces cleaner than they when they started. Lovette Deconstruction has built a great team of employees that they can be proud of. As an employer I see that Lovett Deconstruction take cares of their team. Deconstruction requires an extensive understanding of structural, electrical, plumbing, and HVAC. I recommend you do yourself a favor, save yourself a bunch of time, do not risk damaging your home, do not risk injuring yourself, have a knowledgeable team do what they do best, and support a local business taking care of their team by hiring Lovett Deconstruction. This repeat customer is looking forward our next project and has piece of mind knowing that Lovett Deconstruction will be handling phase one.

Lovett Deconstruction provides excellent services. We had this company work on two of our school buildings and are thoroughly satisfied with their services. They are a team of efficient, thoughtful people working methodically and complete their work in a way that you will find yourself wishing and hoping that every other trade that comes in to work will be as systematic, neat and friendly to work with as they are.

Lovett is a warm and welcoming family of technicians to get your job done safely and efficiently. From start to finish they are fantastic. What a feel good company!
