    We have a beautiful new remodel that's almost complete.
    We live in Seattle, so weather is ... wet.
    I'm not sure what to use for our porch floor.
    As I look around, so many houses just have brushed concrete, with concrete steps.
    Or the new construction has all wood steps and all.
    We're bid in our contract to have concrete, but I'm wondering what is the best investment, and best looking. What's the consensus out there? Is wood that much of a hassle to maintain?
    I'm thinking wood stairs are out, since they get slippery.
    Contractor suggested a stone surface ontop of concrete... like maybe slate, or flag stone, and us this on the path too. But I haven't seen any like this.
    I'm just wondering what people have liked or disliked about their porch floors?
    Thanks for any insight

    Hi Heidi,


    I have a few questions first. Is the porch raised or at ground level? How big is it? Is it in the front and/or back of the house? Will it be inclosed? What activities do you plan on doing on the porch and how do you see it being used? The answers may help define the best porch for you.
