What We Install
The Surfaces We Cover
One service for each of the six surfaces we cover. Pick the nearest and leave the rest to us.
Richmond Hill Rubber Surfacing pours rubber surfacing over concrete and interlock pool decks, sealing the cracks around the coping and giving wet feet a surface with real grip. The old deck stays in place and becomes the base, so a deck that would otherwise need a full replacement is finished in a day or two. We carry full insurance on every job.
Richmond Hill Rubber Surfacing installs rubber surfacing over pitted, cracked and salt-damaged driveways and garage floors, and the concrete underneath never has to be broken out. The rubber seals the surface against salt and oil, hides the damage that is already there, and gives a car something to grip on a January morning. We carry full insurance on every job.
Richmond Hill Rubber Surfacing pours seamless rubber playground surfacing for schools, daycares, parks, churches and backyards, with the thickness set by the height of the equipment it sits under. The surface is a cushioning base layer under a coloured wear layer, it drains through, and it stays where it is poured instead of migrating like mulch or pea gravel. We carry full insurance on every job.
Richmond Hill Rubber Surfacing applies rubber surfacing over concrete, stamped concrete and interlock patios, front walkways and outdoor steps, turning a slippery, uneven surface into one seamless piece with grip built into it. Nothing is lifted or replaced, and the job is usually finished in a day. We carry full insurance on every job.
Richmond Hill Rubber Surfacing installs poured rubber flooring in home gyms, the fitness rooms of condo buildings, personal training studios and converted garages. The floor is seamless, absorbs dropped weights, and cuts the noise that travels through a house or a building. We carry full insurance on every job.
Richmond Hill Rubber Surfacing installs rubber surfacing for commercial entrances, ramps, condo terraces, seniors' residences and horse barns, phased so a building stays open while the work is done. The surface is textured, seamless and easy to clean, and it holds its grip whether it is wet, muddy or icy. We carry full insurance on every job.
Richmond Hill is two different cities underneath the lawns. North of Elgin Mills the ground is moraine sand that drains fast; south of it the ground is heavy clay that holds water against every slab all winter. We check which one your surface sits on before we quote, because it changes the preparation and the thickness we recommend. You can read more about the way we work on our about page.
Nobody gets a rate off a price sheet. A Bayview Hill pool deck with a hairline crack and an Oak Ridges pool deck that has settled at one corner are two different jobs, and a quote that treats them the same is guessing. Ours is measured, written down, and covers the product, the thickness and the exact area.
Rubber surfacing bonds to the concrete or interlock that is already there, so nothing has to be torn out and hauled away.
✓
The finish has grip built into it, so a wet pool deck or an icy front step stops being the most dangerous spot on the property.
✓
Poured rubber stays flexible after it cures, which lets it ride out the small movement a Richmond Hill slab goes through every freeze and thaw.
✓
Colour is mixed into the rubber granule itself rather than painted on, so a playground pattern or a patio border does not wear off.
✓
Most residential jobs are poured in one day and walked on by the second, which is a long way from the week a concrete replacement takes.
✓
The material is largely recycled tire rubber, so an old driveway gets a new life without a new quarry load of aggregate.
✓
Every quote names the product, the thickness and the square footage, so you can compare it line by line with any other quote you are holding.

Rubber surfacing information for Richmond Hill property owners
Pool Decks Crack Along The Coping In Richmond Hill
A pool deck fails first in the narrow strip next to the water, where splash keeps the concrete wet and a Richmond Hill winter freezes it a dozen times before spring. Pool deck rubber surfacing seals that strip, bridges the hairline cracks that have already started, and gives bare feet something to grip on the wettest part of the deck.
Garage Floors In Richvale And Mill Pond Are Old And Pitted
The bungalows and split-levels that went up in the 1950s and 1960s have garage slabs that are now sixty years old, and most of them have started to pit and flake where salt drips off the car. Driveway and garage floor rubber surfacing goes over that damage after we repair the worst of it, and from then on the salt stays on the rubber instead of soaking into the concrete.
A Playground Surface Is Measured By The Fall It Has To Catch
Play structures in Richmond Hill parks, schoolyards and daycares come in every height, and whatever is under them has to absorb a fall from the top of the tallest. Our playground safety surfacing goes down as a thick base layer beneath a coloured wear layer, and the thickness is set by the equipment on site, not by whatever is left in the truck.
Interlock Patios Heave And Wobble On Clay
South of Major Mackenzie most yards sit on clay, and an interlock patio laid on clay walks out of level a little more every year until the edges lift and moss takes the joints. Rubber surfacing for patios, walkways and steps locks the whole surface into one seamless piece with grip built in, without a single paver being pulled.
A Basement Gym Floor Has To Take A Dropped Barbell
A finished basement floor is thin concrete over a moisture barrier, and it cracks under a dropped plate long before the plate is damaged. Our poured rubber gym and fitness flooring spreads the impact and quiets the noise coming up through the house, and because it is seamless there is no tile edge to catch a toe.
Commercial Entrances Get More Foot Traffic Than They Were Poured For
An office lobby on Highway 7 or a plaza entrance on Yonge sees more feet in a week than a house sees in a year, and worn concrete at a door is where slips and claims start. Commercial and equestrian rubber surfacing puts a textured, seamless, easily cleaned surface at the entrance, on the ramp, or down the aisle of a barn in the horse country north of the city.
Rubber Surfacing Does Not Need The Old Slab Removed
The single biggest saving with rubber surfacing is the demolition that does not happen, which is why rubber surfacing comes in under the cost of replacement. The cracked deck, the pitted garage floor or the tired patio stays where it is, gets cleaned and repaired, and becomes the base for the new surface. That is why a job that would take a concrete crew a week of breaking, hauling, forming and pouring is finished by us in a day or two.
The Ground Under Richmond Hill Changes The Preparation
The north end of the city sits on the Oak Ridges Moraine, sand and gravel that swallows rain nearly as fast as it falls. The south end sits on clay that drains slowly and swells when it is wet. A slab on clay moves more between seasons, so before rubber surfacing goes on it gets checked more carefully for cracks that are still growing, and it usually gets a thicker pour. We say which situation you are in before we quote, and the quote reflects it.
Old Sealer Stops Rubber Surfacing From Bonding
The usual reason a rubber surface lifts at the edges is a slab that was sealed years ago and never stripped. The rubber bonds to the sealer, not the concrete, and the sealer lets go. We test for it during the visit, and if it is there the quote includes grinding it off first. That step is not optional, and we would rather explain the extra line on the quote than come back to fix a peeling edge.
Two Kinds Of Rubber Do Two Different Jobs
Black recycled rubber is the economical choice and the right one for a garage, a driveway or a barn aisle, where nobody is looking at it and durability is all that matters. Coloured rubber costs more and keeps its colour in direct sun for years, which is why pool decks, patios and playgrounds get it. Many of our jobs use both, coloured over black.
Our Process
What Happens During A Rubber Surfacing Job?
We visit, measure, and go over the slab for cracks, movement, drainage and old sealer.
We agree on a colour, a thickness and a finish, and put the whole specification and the price in writing.
The surface is cleaned, any loose or broken areas are repaired, and a primer goes down so the rubber bonds.
The rubber and binder are mixed on site and hand troweled to the agreed thickness.
The surface cures for one to two days and is then ready to walk on, drive on or play on.
Serving Richmond Hill, Markham, Vaughan And Thornhill
Richmond Hill Rubber Surfacing works the city top to bottom, from the older streets around Mill Pond and Richvale up Yonge Street to Oak Ridges and Lake Wilcox. Bayview Hill, Jefferson, Langstaff and the estate lots out toward Gormley all get the same visit and the same written quote. Across the city line, Markham, Vaughan and Thornhill are ordinary calls for us rather than out-of-town trips.
Whatever the address, you pay nothing for the visit or the written price. Have a look at our full list of services, or get in touch to set up a time.
Half an hour at the property tells us more than any phone call. We measure, check the slab, and leave a written specification with you, and none of it costs anything.
There is no flat rate, because the number depends on how big the surface is, what shape it is in, and how much preparation it needs. A slab that only needs cleaning and priming is one price; a slab with old sealer to grind off and settled corners to repair is another. We measure it, work out what it needs, and give you one fixed figure in writing. The visit costs nothing.
Yes, as long as the crack has stopped moving. Rubber surfacing flexes with the small seasonal movement every Richmond Hill slab goes through, so hairline cracks and surface flaking are exactly what it is designed to cover. A crack that opens a little more every year points to trouble in the ground below, and that gets fixed before anything else.
That depends more on the preparation than on the rubber. A properly cleaned and primed deck poured in coloured rubber is built to take years of pool water, bare feet and winters. What your own deck will give you is something we say at the visit, not a number we promise to everyone.
It will. The rubber takes to interlock, stamped concrete and plain concrete alike, and no paver has to come up. What matters is that the base under the pavers is stable, which is something we check before quoting.
Most surfaces are ready to walk on the day after the pour and ready for cars or heavy use within two days. A thick playground pour can need longer, and you have the exact timing before the job starts.
The more you can tell us about the surface, the more useful the first visit is. Only a name and a phone number are actually required.
