Our hardwood installations begin with a moisture barrier system crucial for Columbus homes. We use Midwest-sourced oak and maple with expansion gaps sized for our climate's 100°F annual temperature range.
The Onyx team specializes in matching historic grain patterns for German Village renovations, while offering modern durability for active families in Dublin's Muirfield area. Every floor receives our proprietary 6-coat finish that resists scratches from winter boots and pet claws.
For homes with radiant heat (common in Worthington ranches), we install dimensionally stable engineered hardwoods that won't warp. All materials meet VOC standards safe for indoor air quality during our long winters.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can you match my home's original 1940s hardwood?
We maintain a library of 37 historic Columbus wood samples and custom mill to match. Last year we perfectly replicated the tiger oak in a Short North loft conversion.
How do you prevent gaps in winter?
Our installers calculate optimal expansion space based on your home's humidity levels. We use moisture-resistant adhesives rarely needed by big-box retailers.
