Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about rubber coatings and safety surfacing.
What is poured-in-place rubber surfacing?
Poured-in-place (PIP) rubber surfacing is a two-layer system installed directly on-site. The base layer is made from recycled rubber granules for impact absorption, and the top wear layer is made from EPDM rubber granules in your chosen color. The result is a seamless, durable surface that meets safety standards for playgrounds and other high-use areas.
How thick does the rubber coating need to be?
Thickness depends on the fall height of equipment above the surface. For playground equipment up to 4 feet high, a minimum of 2.5 inches is required. Higher equipment requires greater thickness — up to 5.5 inches for 10-foot fall heights. We calculate the required depth for your specific equipment during the site assessment.
Is rubber surfacing ADA compliant?
Yes. Poured-in-place rubber surfacing meets ADA accessibility requirements for accessible routes. The firm, stable surface allows wheelchair and mobility device users to navigate safely, unlike loose-fill materials such as wood chips or sand.
How long does rubber coating last?
With proper installation and routine maintenance, poured-in-place rubber surfacing typically lasts 8–12 years. The wear layer can be resurfaced to extend the life of the installation without replacing the entire base layer.
What areas do you serve for rubber coatings?
We serve Pierce County and the greater Puget Sound region, including Tacoma, Puyallup, Lakewood, Bonney Lake, Auburn, Federal Way, Kent, Sumner, University Place, and Gig Harbor. Call us to confirm coverage for your specific location.
What colors are available?
We offer a wide range of EPDM rubber colors including red, blue, green, yellow, tan, gray, black, and more. Custom color blends and multi-color designs are available for themed playgrounds, school logos, or decorative patterns.
Can rubber surfacing be installed over existing concrete or asphalt?
Yes. Poured-in-place rubber can be installed over existing concrete, asphalt, or compacted gravel — as long as the base is structurally sound and properly draining. We assess the existing surface during our site visit.
