Rubber Overlays
Get a Grip, St. Louis!
If your concrete is cracked or your walkways are becoming slippery, poured rubber overlays from PPR are a smart solution for St. Louis properties. This surface covering goes directly over concrete, asphalt, or wood, creating a smooth, slip-resistant surface that holds up well in Missouri’s changing seasons.
Poured rubber overlays involve mixing rubber granules with a high-strength adhesive on-site and applying them directly over existing surfaces. The material is hand-troweled for a smooth, seamless finish that follows the shape of your current ground. This creates a strong, impact-absorbing surface that remains flexible under pressure and can help cover flaws without removing what’s already in place.
Where Rubber Overlays Work Best
- Patios and decks
- Pool decks
- Walkways and paths
- Entryways and stairs
- Garage and basement floors
- Backyard play areas
- Commercial outdoor and indoor spaces
These surfaces help create more comfortable, inviting spaces while increasing safety.
Benefits of Rubber Overlays
Built to Last
Rubber overlays resist cracking, chipping, and wear from heavy foot traffic.
Safety
The textured finish grips well under wet conditions. That extra traction can help prevent slips.
Low Maintenance
A broom or a quick rinse keeps things clean, no need for constant upkeep.
Eco-Conscious
Many of the materials used in rubber overlays come from recycled rubber.
Color Options to Match Any Style
Choose from a wide selection of colors, from natural tones to bold, bright shades. Multiple colors can be combined to create patterns, borders, or distinct design elements that fit your space. Whether you prefer a subtle look or a pop of color, there are plenty of options for your St. Louis space.
The Installation Process
Surface cleaning and preparation comes first, removing loose material and stabilizing cracks.
A primer is applied to strengthen the bond between the old surface and new overlay.
Rubber granules are mixed with a binder on-site for consistency.
The blend is then applied and shaped by hand with a trowel for a clean, seamless finish.
The surface is left to cure, giving the material time to set properly before use.
