It is that time of the year where your concrete is on full display revealing the cracks, discoloration or unevenness in the surface. You are in need of a repair or replacement but did you know that concrete is not your only option these days? Rubber paving is a great alternative to the traditional concrete pavement . Rubber paving is not new; as a matter of fact, it has been around for many years but it was primarily used on commercial properties and playgrounds. Residential use has grown in popularity in recent years.

Here is a list of some of the benefits of Rubber Paving:
- Slip-resistant: Due to the texture of the rubber paving and the sponginess of the rubber.
- Durable: It is recycled tires and urethane, both last a long, long time.
- Aesthetically pleasing: Rubber paving comes in many colours and can be made with borders & designs.
- Keeps concrete and tires out of the landfills: We have used roughly 25,000 tires to date.
- Easier to shovel: Snow & ice can’t stick to the urethane, so it comes off easier. Plus, there are no seams or crack to catch a shovel on!
- Pavement makeover: It can rejuvenate almost any condition of concrete and from the ground up as well.
- Quick turnaround time: In just 24 hours you can walk and play on it, 3 days and you can drive on it (30 days for concrete).
- Accommodate any size and shape: It is poured-in-place so it is a custom-sized matt of any shape or size.
- Doesn’t crack: Rubber paving flexes with ground movement. That means it won’t crack like concrete.
- Easier and cheaper: It is much less expensive and disruptive than replacing your old concrete.
