About Us
Perks Reclaimed was founded in 2019 by Anna Perks as a building material reuse company based in Commerce City, Colorado. Since receiving a grant from CDPHE to open Denver’s first “deconstruction warehouse” the goal has been simple: Resell high-quality reclaimed building materials from our own local projects back into communities in the Denver and Boulder area. As a certified woman- and minority-owned business, we’ve diverted more than 10 million pounds of materials from landfills through reuse.
Perks Reclaimed is the resale arm of Perks Deconstruction, Colorado’s trusted leader in sustainable demolition and material reuse. Materials are sourced directly from Perks Deconstruction projects, where structures are carefully taken apart to recover what still has value. Materials are then donated to local nonprofits or brought to Perks Reclaimed for resale. The result is a closed-loop system: Materials are salvaged locally and made available again at accessible price points.

Where Our Building Materials Come From
Our inventory reflects what’s coming out of residential and commercial projects across the Denver and Boulder area. That includes flooring, cabinets, doors, windows, appliances, lumber, and a wide range of other materials. Many of these offer a level of durability and quality that’s hard to find in new materials today.
We especially see this with salvaged lumber. Much of what we salvage comes from homes built in the 1950s-1970s and other mid-century structures, where the lumber still carries a level of quality that stands apart from most modern material. While not always old-growth, a lot of it comes from older trees with tighter grain, which often results in denser, more durable wood than what you’ll typically find in today’s box-store lumber. You can feel it when you pick it up… the weight, the solidity, the way it’s held up over time. Along with that material quality, reclaimed lumber is often more resistant to decay and more affordable than buying new, making it a practical option for builders, contractors, and homeowners working on real projects, not just specialty or finish work.
