Wide Plank Birch Floors in Illinois Family Home

Jani and Scott Casto first found Carlisle while they were building their family home in Wheaton, Illinois. They decided to give Carlisle a call for their flooring needs and met design consultant Jason Wolfe. After sharing multiple samples of our custom floors, Jani and Scott settled on our beautiful wide plank birch floors—in widths of 6”, 8” and 10”.  “Scott loved birch’s fire and Jani loved the watery flow of it’s grain”, as Jason thinks back to his wonderful talks with the Casto’s.

When it came time for the floors to be installed, the Casto family decided to use Joe and Eric Boos of Country Hardwoods—a preferred wide plank installer of Carlisle. Eric recollects, “The overall experience on the jobsite was wonderful.  There were some tough aspects to the install, a couple of funny fireplaces with built-in cabinets that made things a little tough.  I would have to say my favorite part of crafting this floor was the freedom the Casto’s gave us to craft the floor the best way possible.”

The Casto’s have since had a few years to live on their floors. Our marketing team just had the opportunity to visit them! During the third week of June, the marketing team and photographers took a trip to Wheaton and shot some beautiful photographs of their home (seen below). The Casto Family was very generous to welcome us into their stunning home—thank you!
