When most people think of residential flooring, they will think of the same old surfaces. Carpet, tile, wood, maybe even polished concrete. These options all have their strengths, as well as plenty of weaknesses. But rubber is a material which often goes overlooked. Residential rubber flooring might be just what you are looking for to revamp the floors of your home. With rubber flooring, residential areas can be made safer and more comfortable, with a wide range of options on offer.
People might joke about spending their lives at work, but the most important place for most people is their home. As such, you need to get your residential flooring right. That’s where residential rubber flooring comes in. Different rooms within a home can present wildly different needs and challenges. For instance, the kind of flooring you need for your kitchen might be completely different to what you might want for a basement. Fortunately, residential rubber flooring is versatile and comes in varying forms to meet all needs.
“Armor Lock” Interlocking Rubber Tiles
“Armor Lock” Interlocking Rubber Tiles
- Traction and safety. Interlocking tiles will keep your feet comfortable and will help prevent unfortunate slips and falls.
- Great as a garage floor. These tiles can handle the heavy weight of cars, motorcycles, and other auto equipment.
- Perfect for use as kennel flooring. Don’t let your pets ruin the base surfacing of their homes!
Superb Grip: A good rubber flooring mat should always stay firm to the ground. In addition to that, they should provide feet with a good amount of traction and comfort. These mats fulfill both of those requirements. The pattern on the bottom of these rubber tiles allows them to have a firm grip on the surface below the tiles. As a result, they will not move around and go out of place. On the top of the rubber mat is a vulcanized and molded rubber finish that assists in providing extra traction for feet. These qualities make them ideal for use as flooring for a gym or any other places that see a high volume of foot traffic.
Applications: This reclaimed flooring can be used for a variety of places. They are the perfect type of flooring for a gym because they can take a lot of punishment from heavy weights and the constant plodding of feet. In fact, if you are setting up a cross-fit gym, these interlocking tiles can protect your base surfacing from the high-intensity craziness of your workout. They also work amazingly as a garage floor option and even as kennel flooring.

One of the rooms which can most benefit from residential rubber flooring is the kitchen. Cooking and washing dishes are likely to lead to spillages, but rubber kitchen flooring is waterproof and resilient. There are rubber flooring options which are designed specifically to provide cushioning comfort – perfect for chefs who spend a lot of time standing in the kitchen. Safety is also paramount, and rubber flooring can provide outstanding grip to prevent slippages. Some flooring options might even be made from nitrile – a type of rubber which has a high level of resistance to grease and oil. Rubber is perfect for residential flooring in the kitchen!
Residential rubber flooring can also have an excellent impact in the bathroom. Rubber-Cal offers water-resistant rubber flooring, residential vinyl flooring and other products such as comfort mats that can massively upgrade your underfoot options in the bathroom. Drainage flooring options are also available, which help by removing water from the floor surface and preventing it from creating a slip hazard. Rubber floors are also easy to clean and maintain, which is a vital factor in the messy bathroom environment, and can offer a unique and attractive aesthetic.
Many people now use garages as an extension of their home. Sometimes a garage will be formally converted into an extra bedroom, other times it might be used as a storage room or makeshift man cave. No matter the use, residential rubber flooring is the perfect surface solution. Because garages are so close to the outdoors, they can be prone to extreme temperatures and damp conditions. Rubber is a great option for residential flooring in a garage because it is an effective insulator, turning your garage into a far more hospitable environment. It will also be more comfortable than a concrete garage surface. Additionally, residential rubber flooring is highly protective and can keep your base surfaces in great condition, eliminating the need for costly repairs. Some people also like to turn their garages into workshops. We have the perfect options for that too, with high-traction textured flooring which is easy to maintain and resistant to oils and some chemicals.
A functional basement can be a great advantage for homeowners, adding to the square footage of a house and providing a versatile space for a utility room, home gym, or an extra bedroom. But because of their underground locations, basements offer unique challenges. From pipe-leak flooding to chilly temperatures, they can be problematic. But with residential rubber flooring you can meet the challenges head on. Use rubber flooring to boost your surface insulation and comfort, as well as protecting your sub-surfaces. You could use a modular tile version of our rubber floors to ensure extra-easy DIY installation. In the event of a flood, our residential rubber flooring can also be removed, dried out and put back in place – all without suffering any lasting damage.
