We have rubber over wood over concrete.

The barn(26.5x30) was poured with future use in mind - workshop etc. So we went with a concrete slab. We built the two stalls 10'x10' with a potential third 10'x10' if needed.
We laid 2"x6" hemlock flooring in stalls and placed rubber over them. There is a center aisle with drains - center aisle has rubber matts as well.

Once a year we lift everything out and clean floor with a light solution of javex and water.
We hose off the wood after we wash the boards as well. Everything gets put back in place for another year.

It usually takes no more than 3-4 hours to do this. We have very little if any urine smell in the barn.

Good luck...
