Can these be installed on Brock paver panels, or would they shift? Can Permasand be used to keep them in place?
You can install our Flagstone Rubber Pavers over any hard flat surface, so in this case, Brock Pave Panels would work. You can use Permasand to keep these tiles in place.
Was this helpful?We recently used your rubber flooring in our garage and are very happy with the product. I was looking at your rubber deck covering. We currently have Trex as our decking, but it has been down for years, and we have been staining it. Can we put your product over the Trex, will the runoff damage the underlying Trex, and does it have to be glued down or can it be spot glued?
You can install our Flagstone Rubber Pavers over Trex decking. The tiles will not affect the decking in any way. They don't have to be glued, but if you did want to glue them, you can. We recommend using our Seam Sealer glue at the seams to keep the flooring together.
Was this helpful?How would these stand up to large volumes of urine (aka doggy daycare)?
Our Flagstone Rubber Pavers are semi-porous and would be able to withstand large volumes of urine. To help mitigate the smell that could be produced, we would recommend hosing down the tiles frequently to keep the uring from getting trapped in the tiles. Also, you could use our Turf Fresh spray on the tiles to also mitigate the smell that could be produced.
Was this helpful?Is this fire rated?
Our Flagstone Rubber Pavers have a Class III fire rating. If you would like a copy of the fire testing on this product, please feel free to reach out to one of our Flooring Heroes via text, chat, or email and they will be more than happy to assist.
Was this helpful?I have a deck over a garage with OSB with a coating of a rubberized paint. I am in rainy Seattle and concerned with damp conditions underneath the tiles. Would this work for this application?
Our Flagstone Rubber Pavers are semi-porous, so they may not be the best solution if you are concerned about moisture getting under the tiles. If you don't want any water pass through, you could seal the pavers to make them nonporous. You would do this by using our Rubber Floor Finish and Sealer and our Seam Sealer glue. We do offer other products where water wouldn't pass through the flooring, which can be found in our wide range of outdoor flooring that can be found on our Outdoor Flooring page.
Was this helpful?My wife has severe allergies to smells. Will these smell a lot when they heat up in the sun, and also, how long will they off-gas?
If our Flagstone Rubber Pavers are installed outdoors, the smell will not be an issue for anyone on the flooring. These tiles will not smell more as they heat up. The smell is strongest after they are first installed. If the smell is still too strong outdoors, we recommend hosing the flooring down with a mild soap and water solution and allow the flooring the air dry.
Was this helpful?Want to install these pavers over a cracked concrete patio. Will this product help protect the concrete slab from additional rain-related wear and tear?
Our Flagstone Rubber Pavers will provide some protection, but with these rubber tiles being porous, water will still penetrate to the concrete below, resulting in further damage in the long run.
Was this helpful?What adhesive to use to put rubber tiles on flagstone porch and steps?
We recommend using a Polyurethane Adhesive when gluing our Flagstone Rubber Pavers on a porch or steps.
Was this helpful?is this product safe to install on a rooftop deck?
Our Flagstone Rubber Pavers are Rubber Roof Approved and are great as flooring for any rooftop deck.
Was this helpful?I need to ride my mobility chair in my yard, but I need a pathway that I can afford. Is this something that the beast i.e. my mobility chair won't destroy?
You can drive a mobility chair over our Flagstone Rubber Pavers. These rubber tiles are very durable and can withstand a car being driven over them with no issues.
Was this helpful?Can I use this flooring for a flat rooftop deck for outdoor festivities and guests?
Our Flagstone Rubber Pavers are rooftop safe and would be a great flooring option for festivities and guests.
Was this helpful?The reason we're looking for rubber flooring is due to having two overly energetic toddlers who tend to fall and hurt themselves. We're purchasing a home with a large wraparound brick patio and are searching for a protective, weather-resistant covering. Is this soft enough to provide cushioning for falls or is this a hard rubber surface?
Our Flagstone Rubber Pavers are softer than concrete or stone pavers, but could still cause some injury as they are not as soft as our playground rubber tiles or foam tiles. We would recommend either going with our playground flooring or going with our foam tiles over these tiles to help deaden their falls.
Was this helpful?I want to install these pavers inside my garage over a concrete floor. Is there any danger of this product emitting any type of fumes that I would need to worry about by using this in an enclosed space with little ventilation?
Our Flagstone Rubber Pavers would be safe to use in an enclosed space. There would be a rubber smell that will be associated with these tiles, but it is not noxious or dangerous. The rubber smell will go away over time. To help get rid of this smell faster, we recommend washing the floor with a mild soap and water solution and allowing for the floor to air dry with plenty of ventilation. This may need to be done a few times to get the smell to go away quickly. These pavers can be used as garage flooring and will not be affected by a car driving over them. One thing that can occur when using rubber flooring as garage flooring is that any oils that fall on it from your car will eventually break down the rubber. If your car does leak oil, we would recommend placing our Nitro Rolls or Auto Floor Guards mats in the area where you park your vehicle(s).
Was this helpful?Looking at this product to go around a pool in Florida? Will this product work for that type of application?
Our Flagstone Rubber Pavers would work well around a pool. These rubber tiles are very slip resistant even when wet and are cooler than concrete in direct sunlight. These rubber tiles are also very easy to clean and maintain and are mold and mildew resistant. These tiles are semi-porous, so water will not pool on top of the flooring ensuring a safe space to play and cool off.
Was this helpful?We are interested in using these tiles in our mudroom, but are worried about water getting underneath them and ruining the subfloor. What do you suggest we do?
To prevent water from getting under our Flagstone Rubber Pavers, we would suggest placing a plastic sheet under the tiles and also sealing the floor. First, you would need to seal the seams with our Seam Sealer glue. Next, we would suggest sealing the whole floor with our Floor Finish and Sealer. You will need to strip and replace the Floor Finish and Sealer one to two times a year depending on the amount of traffic on the floor.
Was this helpful?I am thinking about installing these flagstone pavers around my swimming pool; I am concerned about the salt water generation process will be a major problem when splashed out onto the surface. Also the color fading due to the sun and the very low salt content that is in the water.
Our Flagstone Rubber Pavers are a great flooring option around pools, whether they are freshwater pools or saltwater ones. These tiles are very easy to clean and maintain and are very slip resistant even when wet. The tiles are semi-permeable so they would allow water to flow through them and to the subfloor below. Since saltwater has salt, when it drys, it leaves the salt behind. This salt can get into the tiles and be very hard to clean out. We would recommend hosing down your pavers periodically to flush out the salts so that they don't get trapped in the tiles. The color can fade with these rubber tiles, but this process typically takes a good amount of time to occur. Most installations still look virtually new years after the initial install.
Was this helpful?I want to install the pavers on an EPDM roofing membrane to create a rooftop deck. The roof is pitched slightly to allow water to flow from front to back for drainage. Will the rubber paver allow the water to properly drain from the roof in the direction of the slope and not puddle?
Our Flagstone Rubber Pavers would allow for water to flow with the slope of your roof to allow water to flow off your roof properly. Water will also not puddle on top of the pavers, as they are semi-porous and allow water to flow through them to the subfloor below.
Was this helpful?I would like to install in my garage are they mildew resistance and can you drive on them?
Our Flagstone Rubber Pavers can be used as flooring in a garage. These tiles are mold and mildew resistant and can be driven over. The only issue that you may occur is when oils interact with the floor. Over time, car oil will break down the flooring.
Was this helpful?I would like to use these on our roof deck, however it is pitched slightly for drainage. Can I use adjustable pedestals with these to make the deck even?
You can use adjustable pedestals under our Flagstone Rubber Pavers to make the deck even.
Was this helpful?Help me understand how drainage works on these tiles if you advise to put a weed barrier down and then glue the tiles together over dirt? Would that not prevent drainage?
The weed barrier would not prevent the water to flow through our Flagstone Rubber Pavers. The paver itself is semi-permeable allowing water to flow through the tile. The water would then hit the weed barrier and flow through the dirt below since most proper weed barriers are porous. The glue between the tiles just ensures the flooring performs properly in both hot and cold weather.
