EPDM (Ethylene Propylene Diene Terpolymer) rubber is rubberized safety surfacing, which is applied to indoor and outdoor substrate.
Vancouver Safety Surfacing poured-in-place rubber granules are mixed onsite with a specially formulated binder, poured-in-place, and troweled to accommodate the surface substrate.
Vancouver Safety Surfacing EPDM (Ethylene Propylene Diene Terpolymer) rubber granule mixes are shown below. These are only suggestions and can be adjusted to suit individual preferences.
Rubber granule application varies for each and every job. We have to take into account driveway approach, garage approach, tripping hazards, and undulations in the substrate. As a result, thickness can vary between 1/4″ to 5″ thick in different sections on the substrate that our product is being applied to.
Our certified and trained installers apply Vancouver Safety Surfacing poured-in-place rubber granules. There are usually one troweller, one runner, and one mixer onsite, depending on the size of the installation. The rubber granules arrive in bags and the binder in buckets. It is then mixed and troweled on site.
The water filters through the sub-base and will drain through to the substrate.
Vancouver Safety Surfacing poured-in-place rubber granules have been tested in cold climates like Winnipeg and Eastern Canada. The tensile strength of the combination of granules and binder, allows the surface to expand and contract while remaining intact!

Vancouver Safety Surfacing has a minimum project charge of $3,500.00 before taxes plus the cost of potential prep work if required (Driveways). Some of the factors that will affect the cost are:
Maintenance is key to maintaining your warranty and value of your newly poured-in-place rubber safety surfacing. Presence of foreign objects may damage your surface. These include a wide range of items, from sand, dirt, and stones to leaves, tree sap, chewing gum, bird droppings, urine, blood, scuff marks, tar, gasoline, or grease.
Use: plastic shovels, snow blowers that are raised above rubber with plastic risers, Alaskan ice melt, soapy water, low power pressure washers, leaf blowers, brooms, etc.
Don’t Use: metal shovels, metal ice chippers, or any sharp objects
Keep loose debris off. Loose debris such as sand, dirt, and small stones on top of unitary surfacing can reproduce slip hazards. In addition, fine particles can accumulate in porous openings and clog important drainage features of some surfaces, as can matting materials such as leaf litter. These particles can also be abrasive, accelerating wear and shortening surface life. It is recommended that a regular periodic washing and removal of this loose debris be done.
It is best to pressure wash or vacuum porous surfaces to clear the permeable openings as well as to remove top litter, but blowing can also be an effective means of achieving this. Dry sweeping or scrubbing will remove the loose litter, but can force more fine particles into porous openings of some surfaces. This should be done as required, but may be necessary more often if local conditions warrant.
Below is a list of items suggested for cleaning and maintenance:
The following are effective cleaning agents but they are not recommended on most rubber surfaces. They may be detrimental to the surfacing because, over time, they could break down the polyurethane binding component and may lead to de-lamination of the EPDM or SBR or combination of your rubber. Most are not environmentally friendly and some also change the appearance of the cleaned area compared to the rest of the surface, or make the surface very slippery.
Vancouver Safety Surfacing provides comprehensive rubber paving services for driveways, garage floors, patios, decks, playgrounds, daycares, and commercial projects. Our rubber resurfacing products are environmentally friendly and are uniquely designed to make the surfaces you walk on safer.
