    Looking for something like this:

    I've looked up a few polished concrete suppliers but they only seem to have the marble-effect ?

    Any chance of PM-ing me someone who could do a wood effect?

    thanks.

    I would guess this is more of a stained textured concrete. They probably use silicone mat that is placed on top of the concrete to imprint the pattern before it starts to set up. Some of the concrete patio guys might do it.

    Just get wood affect tiles they really look like the real thing

    I found out that the concrete would need to be 3 inches deep which isn't really what I intended, so tiles might be the way to go.

    These are tiles. A poured concrete floor for residential can work out to be quite expensive in my experience and its a different kind of look to this, much more industrial and shiny :)
    Id go for wood effect tiles. I saw some nice ones in BTW recently that are similar to what you have photographed.

    It's actually concrete, but I get what you are saying. Anyway the 3 inch deep requirement has ruled out concrete for me.
