1/2" Rubber Gym Tiles Reviews

This is our new outdoor workout area and observation deck (top of picture). One of the pleasures of living in Southern California is the ability to build an outdoor gym that can be used year round.

We ordered 28 of these 1/2″ thick 4'x4' tiles to tile our gym room. The tiles seem to be well made with consistent pattern and thickness. I was able to cut them with a utility knife (razor knife), the trick is don't be in a hurry, make multiple passes per cut and switch to a new blade after 2 or 3 tiles. For more complex cuts I used a jigsaw. The result looks really nice, I was able to cut them to fit perfectly and they lay nice and flat on the floor. The puzzle like pattern keeps them together nicely. For quality of construction I give them 5 stars. However they have quite a strong rubber or chemical smell, and for this I'm removing 2 stars. Our room is approximately 400 sq feet and it is enclosed in South Florida, currently without air conditioning. In the afternoon when it's warm in the room (about 95 degrees F) it's almost difficult to breathe until we open the windows and doors to air it out, and the smell gives me and my wife a headache. It has only been installed for about a week so I'm hoping the smell will go away with time. The smell is my only complaint about the product. Also, a trait that I suspect is the same with any rubber floor, powdery type dirt sticks to the rubber (if someone walks in from outside with dusty dirt on their shoes) and the vacuum won't lift it. However brushing it with a broom loosens it and then the vacuum will pick it up. So in summary, for quality of construction I give it 5 stars, but for the powerful chemical/rubber odor I'm taking away 2 stars, for a final score of 3 stars.

We just installed the rubber floor at Parker Hannifin in Forest City. The install went smooth and the floor looks great! I would send a picture but I don`t think this format would allow it. Thanks for a great product.

I priced rubber floors for my new home gym at local flooring stores and was amazed at how expensive these were to have installed. I researched options online and decided to order the 1/2″, 4'x4' mats for my 10'x15' room from RubberFlooring.com. They arrived when promised and were as easy to install as was described. As a matter of fact, the flooring arrived at 4 in the afternoon and i had it completely installed by myself at 10pm that same evening-installing around 2 doors and a inside a closet. Everyone that sees it is amazed and my carpenter couldn't believe that it wasn't professionally installed. I can't say enough about the product and the ease of installation. If you are in the market for a rubber floor, this is the one to get. Remember to have plenty of razor blades and change them often.

As of right now I don't have any equipment on the floor yet so I can't rate durability. If appearance and weight have any bearing on the durability it should hold up well. We're building a new home and were trying to figure out what to put down on the floor of our exercise room. A coworker of mine suggested we look at rubber flooring. So I jumped on the internet and started researching rubber gym flooring. After reading all of the positive review here about both the company and their product I decided to place my order. Communication was good and the product showed up in a timely matter. I installed the tiles over a new concrete floor. I ended up using a carpet knife and a piece of steel angle iron for a straight edge to cut the tiles. It worked out very well. I have an electrical closet in the room so I cut everything to also cover the closet floor. There is a 4″ sewer drain line that goes down through the floor in the closet that required cutting around. I used a slightly larger hole saw which cut through easily. The floor looked like it was manufactured for the size of the pipe when it was laid. When I started my install I began laying the tile out so the seam wouldn't be in the doorway. I quickly discovered with the tile combination that they ship (corner, wall and center tile) that you should only be cutting tile at 2 walls. Keeping the seam away from the door would have required cutting at 3 walls. The seam is in the doorway but isn't that noticeable and looks like it shouldn't be an issue with durability. With a new build I installed the rubber flooring before the builder put the baseboard molding in so the floor looks great finished under the trim.

I used your 1/2″ Rubber Gym Tiles for my gym....I love it! Images sent in by happy customer

We purchased the 4x4ft tiles to minimize the number of seams and are very happy with the product. The one gotcha to keep in mind is getting your order right.. We struggled with both the online calculator (which doesn't really take into account the shape of our room and further, presents one option that doesn't completely cover the room), AND working with one of their representatives. In the end we ended up short a few pieces and some of our pieces were incorrect (needed fewer edge/corner pieces and more center pieces). So my advice is look very specifically at what pieces you're getting and what type of pieces and do your own analysis on whether it's correct. In the end, rubber flooring was great and helped us correct the pieces we needed and the product itself is great. It is also pretty easy to install.. I used a box cutter to cut the tiles which really wasn't as hard as some of the other reviewers made it out to be. Just make sure you have new blades and keep slicing it until you cut through.

Exactly what I was looking for! Thick, easy to assemble, and functional. There is an ″off gassing″ time for the rubber smell to dissipate, but eventually it does. Actually have to order a few more, my only request would be to have the ability to put on ″edges″ to apply in order to accommodate odd tiles (like a three sided tile, or tile out by itself).

The rubber flooring is definitely heavy duty and will serve us well. I wish I would have got a different color besides black. everything from your shoes show up on this colors. installation was fairly simple compared to other floorings. the floor looks great in the room. my one complaint is I had to buy more flooring than I needed so I have two and a half extra mats. I would rather be able to buy the square foot I need rather than in the bundles you sale. over all we are satisfied with our purchase. Thank you

Ordered rubber tiles to turn part of my garage into a gym. They were extremely easy to install and look great. I highly recommend them.

These tiles are amazing! Perfect for home workouts. Helps create an extra cushion and absorbs some of the shock. Easy to assemble and get it all together.

Project started in April, planned on finishing in June, 90% done in October. Who wants to workout?! Thanks #COVID-19

These are great. Very dense rubber so the product really absorbs the vibration. They are also easy to cut if they need to be sized. Also very easy to connect with one another.

The product is great. It came on a Thursday and it was installed by Thursday night. It was easy to cut and fit together very easily. The tiles were perfect size and all the pieces fit perfect.

Greetings, Here is a picture of the weight room floor in our home gym. We are very happy with the floor. It was easy to install. Sincerely, Ron and Linda

It was well made. Easy to install. Even though the concrete floor was very uneven and out of level, there are only a few places where the seams stand out. We are very pleased.

Easy to install. Pieces fit together well. Excellent protection for floor in home gym. Looks great.

Did a whole 16x18 floor myself! Cuts much easier than anticipated to get around trim and doorways.

When we were in search of mats for our gym at home, durability was extremely important. Not only have these surpassed our expectations, they're made from recycled tires which means we're doing our small part in helping the environment. There is a slight odor upon arrival, but it dissipates within a week. Additionally, one mat was damaged upon delivery and though there was a delay in response (totally understandable in this current environment), customer service was a breeze to work with and they are replacing the damaged tile.

Just great fitting & the right thickness of rubber tile I needed. Heavy & stay in place. Very happy with the tiles.
