Default Looking for wood effect tile!!!

Hi people, I am looking for a tile that looks like a wood plank and I am really struggling to find a supplier! B&Q are the only place I have found a decent example, but you must be off your nut if you think I am going there for my floor tiles

Porcelain looks like my best option, it will be going in the living room and have underfloor heating.

If anyone knows any supplier or where I can see examples, would all be much appreciated.

Cheers

I'm fixing 658mm x 185mm this week and a few weeks back fixed 900mm (roughly) x 185mm, so yes, the latter was definitely wood effect! And fun to fix

Don't suppose you know the name of the tile do you? Oh and what grout colour and tile spacer did you use?
Thanks

This weeks one - I can tell you tomorrow but I'm using a 2mm joint over a sand & cement screed that I have levelled with Mapei Ecoplan. It's a light tile and client is providing Butech Beige.

The previous larger one - can't remember. Client was after 1mm but managed to talk him up to 2mm as I was concerned about movement. I know BS is 3mm but it just won't work with these tiles. If I recall I think I used Mapei UCP chocolate as it was quite a dark wood effect.

Call Porcelanosa and they will let you know what they have.
