8mm Strong Rubber Rolls Reviews

Happy Customer

I was advised to glue this down to the plywood floor which we did. I bought this flooring for a good gym surface for plyometrics and basically to quiet down loudness of a mini trampoline in the room. I wish I had bought the thicker flooring. The reviews said the 8mm is this most common for gyms, and I was afraid the thicker one would not fit up against the carpet or tile floor it connects. however I find this flooring to be very hard, no give, and it is very loud- I am disappointed I went with the reviews and suggestions of the people I talked to.

I purchased, 4, 18'x4' rolls of the 8mm rubber flooring. I want to say it probably was the easiest project I did around my house. I am a handy person, and this was simple enough for a not-so-handy person to tackle. I wanted a rubber floor for the gym I made in our home basement. I wanted to include photos, but this email sat in my email box too long, I want to spread the word. Following is all it took to get this installed....by MYSELF! First, clean the sub-floor and mop it, let dry, then simply roll out the mats, cut them to fit the room, let them sit for a day or two to get acclimated to the surroundings, then lift up the outside edges and seams and apply the double sided tape (I purchased this too) to fasten to the floor. This step reminded me of my High School Wrestling days, since I would run and ″stomp″ at the seams, to be sure they were ″tight″ before taping. I didn't want something permanent, in the event I wanted to change that room someday. Thus...the tape! Worked wonderful. Overall, it turned out nice. I get compliments on how the seams ″cannot be detected″. I know where they are, but without looking closely, you cannot see them. My room was 17'x15', so it wasn't super big, but perfect for this product! And the 8mm is VERY durable for a gym floor. I wanted something a little more durable than what I seen out there, this was perfect. Kind of tough to cut (which is good), I used a Carpet Knife (switching to new blades often) and a T-square...worked perfect! I will refer people to this site if they want a good rubber flooring product. I see I can send some pics to the email below, I will forward a few.

if it wasnt for the high cost of shipping, I would cover my whole BikeShop with it. But, I have to just cover the rest with wooden floor. Maybe you guys should have your own shipping trucks.

The flooring looks awesome at our Masthope Mountain Community Fitness Center.

I got the 8 mm baby blue rubber flooring. It looks great when installed and was fairly easy to install by myself. One thing to be aware of is, make sure the color is specified when ordering. There are different options of colors between the pre-cut and rolled and I wanted the bright blue but got the baby blue. It turned out to work for me but if it hadn't shipping would have been a great cost to me. I highly recommend using double sided carpet tape which I got from Home Depot for about $8 to do a 12 x 24 room.

This was a great choice for our home gym. Did not order samples first, just went ahead with ordering 4 rolls, which were heavy but relatively easy to work with and install. Put down on concrete and we used PL400 around the seams. We chose the color with purple and it looks great. Haven't put any equipment on it yet, but I am sure it will stand up to any weight. Would recommend to others.

Only had a small project (264 Sq. ft.), but the product worked out great. Cutting was relatively easy with a heavy utility knife and thick straight edge. Edges of the rolls were in good shape, so I didn't even cut an overlap except at the end. The product is heavy and wants to lay flat. I would use it again in a heartbeat!

I thought the rubber flooring laid very nice and I love it. We bought the 8mm rubber rolls with brown fleck and love the way our new gym looks. Mops up really easy with a damp mop Here are a few pics Image sent in by customer

I installed 8mm black strong rubber rolls in a workshop which has plywood subfloors. I ordered custom cut (16') rolls rather than the standard 25' rolls and am glad I did because I don't think I could have handled the larger ones alone (and I can bench press 300 pounds!). Cutting and fitting was fairly easy, but be sure you have a good supply of sharp blades for your box cutter because they dull quickly when cutting this material. I also ordered seam sealer caulking to prevent water from getting to the wood floors beneath the rubber and this appears to be effective. However, the liquid floor sealer I bought to finish the floor surface was a bust. It goes on easily (although 4 thin coats with 24 hours dry time between coats is a little tedious) and gives a nice shiny finish, BUT it scuffs so easily that the ″finished″ floor almost immediately looks worse than the original dull unfinished rubber. I do NOT recommend this product unless you do not plan to actually use the floor.

I have a large room under the garage that we converted to a home gym. We ordered 6-4'x27' rolls. The product arrived at the end of the delivery window we were given, but still considered on time. The rolls were much heavier than anticipated but once we got them rolled out we learned how to work with them. I strongly recommend change blades frequently to assist with ease of cutting. Don't rush the process, it will take time to get it all aligned, but is worth the effort. The product looks great and is easy to clean.

I’m really happy with how it looks!! I wish I had gotten it sooner. Makes my home gym look so awesome!

They said it was heavy but wow those rolls really do weigh a ton. Install was easy, the only difficult part is maneuvering the rolls. Cutting to size was easy. The room is transformed and we get lots of compliments on our gym. I tried the 'dropped dumbbell' test and I was amazed at how it absorbed it even when dropped on an edge. Very impressed.

I used the 8 mm rubber rolls for a cushioning and rugged floor for my workshop. The rolls 20’ x 4’ rolls were easy to move in an roll out such that I have my floor installed in about an hour. The product is easy to cut with a multi-tool and lays flat enough that seam tape isn’t really necessary. Heavy equipment rolls easily on the floor and the color choice of black with blue flecks is attractive. Photo sent via email.

Created a gym in my house and this created the perfect flooring. Not hard to install and not messy with a realistic price point

Great product, easy to install.

These mats came quickly and I was able to schedule a delivery date ahead of time which was convenient for me. Installation was quite easy and the final product was excellent. It was well worth the money and time. My wife and I love how our project came out.
