If you want a uniform look immediately, consider an oil based wood sealant with a mildew inhibitor. Most are available in a clear (for a natural wood look) or you can have the paint store tint it.

Cypress has a natural preservative oil known as cypressene which gives the heartwood resistance to insects and decay.

Cypress works well with both hand and power tools. The wood planes easily and resists warping. Although cypress is resinous, the resin (called cypressene) isn't a sticky sap like other woods.

Cypress flooring is a good choice, but it is a relatively soft wood (comparable in hardness to modern day Douglas Fir) and will take on an "aged" look when used in high traffic areas. To give it a harder finish, you might consider sealing it with Waterlox's "Gym Floor Sealer" product. Longleaf Pine is the perfect choice for flooring because of it's hardness, which is comparable to modern day red oak. Longleaf Pine has been used for centuries in old American homes and is still in use today.

Heart pine is almost as hard as red oak (1225 vs. 1290 on the floor hardness scale) and is 29 percent more stable than Oak according to the NWFA. George Washington's floor in Mt.
