3/8" Heavy Duty Rubber Rolls Reviews

Here is a pic of our installed flooring...turned out very well and I am highly pleased.

I ordered 5 rolls that were 4' x 15'. Order shipped on Tuesday and arrived on Thursday via FedX. Each roll was individually wrapped...the entire pallet was covered in clear plastic...strapped down well...and in perfect condition. I replaced the 16-year-old commercial grade carpet in my 19' x 14' workout room on the first floor of my home (concrete slab floor). I moved the rubber rolls one at a time into the workout room using a dolly with no problem. I purchased 2 each 1/8″ thick 2' x 4' hardboard sheets and had Home Depot cut them in half so I ended up with 4 each 1' x 4' hardboard strips. I used a 48″ heavy duty T-square and a Grey fine point Sharpie to mark the rubber. I measured twice (sometimes more)...and marked the rubber using the Grey Sharpie. I placed the hardboard strips underneath the rubber where the cut would be so that when the knife blade went through the rubber it would then be cutting against the hardboard...NOT the concrete. I used the T-square as a guide and placed a small foam knee pad on top of it while I kneeled on it (this helps hold the T-square in place). There is a sticker on one side of the roll which says ″This Side Down″. I cut the very end off of each roll to ensure it was perfectly square. I used a Dewalt utility knife which provides a good grip and excellent pressure angle. It takes 3 or 4 cut passes to get all the way through the rubber. The 3/8″ rubber fit perfectly under the baseboard all around the room allowing me to tuck 1/2″ of rubber under it on all 4 walls. Note: make sure you measure each section from wall to wall where each roll will go. There can be up to 1″ variance even though the wall ″looks″ straight. Measure twice...mark and cut once. The actual installation of the flooring took me 4 hours. The product is easy to install...but it is high-quality, ″heavy″ duty stuff. I installed the rubber flooring by myself without any help...but I am a large and strong man with a lot of construction/moving experience. If you are not a very large/strong person and you have fairly long runs...you will probably need some help moving and positioning the product. I could not be more pleased with how the installation went. It lays and fits perfectly and looks fantastic! Great product, price & customer service!! Images sent in by happy customer

This is a great product. I was going to buy a different product, but thanks to the helpful customer rep and her suggestion I am very happy. This product stay in place on my new plush carpet durning my P90X and Insanity workouts while giving me a great surface to land on. I was concerned going with a rubber product that the whole house would smell like it, but it puts off very little odor.

I bought three 4' x 10' rolls of 3/8″ heavy duty rubber to put over our concrete patio to make it safer for the kids to play out there. It is great for this purpose and the kids love it. Images sent in by happy customer

So I was super excited on all the positive reviews, as this product is not cheap by all means. Problems I have were really related to the consistency of the product from roll to roll and even within the rolls. Even though I had a pro install, my seems are very visible in 2 out of the 5 seems, mostly because the color varies so much, it looks like strips on a runway. Anyways, functionally the product is fine, just does not look professional by all means. If you have OCD like me, I would look elsewhere.

I recently purchased approximately 320 s.f. of 3/8″ rolled rubber flooring for use in a home gym. I did the installation 3 months ago and I am very pleased with the product. The lengths of the individual rolls were correct and even a couple of inches longer than what was ordered. Delivery was as promised and the product is holding up well under heavy use. I would definitely recommend RubberFlooringInc to my friends.

I spent considerable time in selecting my rubber flooring material. This product is excellent. Installation went well and I read many previous reviews and took note of their install tips. A sharp drywall knife is the ticket. Also take your time and measure twice cut once. The flooring layed flat after about a week. I did use carpet tape on a couple seams and it has worked well. I am happy happy with this material. Durable and tough. Thanks for the excellent customer service and help.

Love my new home gym. The flooring made the room! Images sent in by happy customer

Hi it's Qi, please see installed 3/8″ grey fleck rolled rubber flooring! Image sent in by customer

The product is exactly as described online. Shipping was very secure and timely. The flooring is much easier to lay then tile. It is used as a flooring for a workout and play room in basement. Very happy I choose roll instead of tile.

I originally put down the interlocking squares - what a mistake. The rubber rolls stay in place and provide a much better surface for our home gym. Wish I had done this from the start.

Great product, fast shipping, awesome customer service.

This is the second time I used the flooring for my downstairs gym, replaced the original after 10 years for different color, very durable and great for weights and stuff

I found this material very easy to work with. It appears to be very durable and so far has been quick to dry and easy to clean/sweep. It provides a strong surface with good grip and seems to really be able to take a beating (dropped weights, etc.). My only cons for this stuff is that the edge of the rolls are not cut square so it requires each end to be cut before install. And the off-gassing is pretty strong at first. Overall a really great solution for my flooring needs.

The floor looks great and it was easy to install once we got it cut. Smelled like fresh rubber at first but it went away with time.

I really like the roll. It looked thinner than expected but once installing in my basement gym the floor really works well. When I drop stuff they actually bounce (like tools/weights etc) Cuts very easily with a new razor knife. Literally easier than sheetrock - I was surprised. I have a good tsquare and I traced right down the line. Unfortunately I'm still renovating the other rooms in my basement so I track a good deal of dust onto this floor. Vacuuming works fine on this (wetvac) but I didn't glue the floor into place so I have to watch when vacuuming. Other than that..the floor stays in place nicely.. looks great and functions very well. The smell disappeared in 1 day - and my wife complains of smells and this didn't bother her after 1 day.

We own a townhouse with a third floor loft that we use as our gym. Currently we have a treadmill, racks of dumbells, a benchpress cage and curl station. We had the original burber carpet as flooring. Wanting to upgrade the space a bit, I purchased 3/8″ custom rubber rolls as a replacement for the carpet. Rubber Flooring Inc was very helpful with selection and confirmation of my lengths. I chose 3/8″ over the slightly thinner ones for cushion, durability and ability to lay flat easily. Downsides are weight, weight and weight. They arrived as planned on a palate. Rubber flooring is very heavy and very unwielding to carry because of its shape. The weight does, though, help it to easily lay flat when installed without any glue or tape. It took me only one day to install. Moving all the equipment to one side of the room I was able to cut the carpet and padding up in sections and remove. I took out the border tacking to hold it in place. I scraped the subfloor clean and vacuumed it. Using a clean, sharp blade at all times I was able to easily cut the sections as needed. I was concerned about the two door threshold areas, but rubber flooring can easily be cut to fill in any gaps and looks seamless. Always remember, ″measure twice, cut once″ The gym looks really great! The rubber smell lasted about one week, but is now gone. Going from carpet to rubber flooring - the room is now more alive with sound since the carpet / deadening material is gone so is sound might be an issue, think about this. Pictures to follow!

I ordered 3 rolls, which were delivered without issue and installed easily. Once I got the first one down and cut, the others fell right into place. I haven't taped them down yet, they seem heavy enough to stay in place without it. The rubber seems durable, yet pliable. There was minimal odor. My wife is extremely sensitive to smells and she was fine with it.

Did a lot of research online at various sites for rubber floor mats for my new home gym before I read about this product on the P90X blog. I ordered two rolls of the rubber flooring and it arrived within a week. It took a few hours to install since I was cutting it to fit around corners and columns. It was fairly easy to cut using a utility knife. The rubber has a slight rubber smell but it's not bad at all. Overall I'm very satisfied with the product and the online transaction. The vendor sent status updates throughout the week regarding the order.

The rubber mat is good quality. I'm using it for a home gym, happy with the results. The product is only 4-star because of the initial rubbery smell. The smell is strong, but don't worry it clears after a couple weeks. I subtracted another star for the slow delivery. The product wasn't shipped from the warehouse until 3 weeks after my order was placed! That said, they were very friendly on the phone and I would still recommend buying from them (unless you need rush delivery).
