Wood flooring legend Birger Juell career began, as a new immigrant, he stepped ashore from a Norwegian square rigged sailing ship and his boss handed the young apprentice some knee pads, a box of scraper and assignment.
Birger spent the next several years on his hands and knees learning the art of hand scraping from a master. It was 1946 that he founded his own flooring company. He built a business that became a fixture in the wood flooring industry known for its high-end, custom hand-scraped floors and high-profile clientele.
Birger Juell’s lumber is a cut above the rest, as the company has turned to more eco-friendly lumber sourcing techniques. The Birger Juell craftsmen use their expertise to create nothing less than beautifully hand scraped wood flooring using these woods.
