Solid vs. engineered for Gahanna homes

Older Gahanna homes, especially around the historic Olde Gahanna district, often have a wood subfloor that can take solid hardwood. The newer subdivisions east of Hamilton Road are typically built on a concrete slab, where engineered hardwood is the better long-term choice - it glues or floats directly over concrete without the cupping risk solid wood carries there.

Refinishing Gahanna's original hardwood

A good share of homes in Olde Gahanna still have solid oak under carpet that's been down since the 1970s or 80s. Our dustless [refinishing process](/hardwood-refinishing) - board repairs, stain matching, and a durable waterborne finish - usually costs less than half of a full replacement.

Built for Central Ohio's seasons

Gahanna's humid summers and cold, dry winters both move wood, so we acclimate every delivery on site and leave proper expansion gaps. Near front doors, where road salt and ice-melt track in all winter, we'll talk through finish and mat choices that protect the wood.
