    Thank you all for the suggestions. We think we’ve succeeded in finding the right wood and we’re waiting for the delivery tomorrow. We shall see.

    Hi Doug,
    You sound like my husband! He was pushing for ceramics as well. Yes, cement or tiles would be more practical, but I have dreamed of this wood floor – I just love the feel of it and there you have it.
    To each her own.
    Cheers!

    Thank you for your information. I’d been told by a family member in the States about a planking that “looked just like wood”, and was great for outdoor use, maybe it’s something that hasn’t gotten on the market here yet. And true, plastic is not going eco friendly.
    Looks like we may have found something – going to look today.
    Thanks again!

    yes, thanks scott. true, plenty of ferreterias, but the best for me would be to find recycled wood. maybe an old house being torn down with good old wood, or someone with some seasoned wood setting up ready for use. i’ve also been told of laminate planking that’s being used in the states with great results – but i haven’t found it here in country so far. it’s a pliable plastic composite formed in planks that looks like wood and stands the tests of time in the outdoors.
    i live in the southern pacific but get to s.j. regularly, so i can check out resources wherever.
    thanks for your assistance.
