Our rubber pavers are the perfect flooring for any horse barn or equestrian property. Our rubber pavers are ideal for horse barn aisle ways, saddling areas, horse barn corridors, service roads, wash stalls, wash bays, grooming stalls, feed rooms, and breeding sheds. In addition to a slip-resistant paving solution, our rubber pavers have anti-shock and bacteria-controlling properties. This makes it a surface that is easy to maintain, as well as a healthy choice for your barn. 100% Made in the USA.

We recommend our rubber pavers to all clients for their barn projects. Below is a list of benefits to consider:
Our 7/8” thick pavers are best suited for application on concrete bases. These pavers require a glue adhesive to adhere the paver to your concrete.
In contrast, our 1-3/4” thick rubber pavers can be applied to both natural substrates or also concrete. Glue adhesive is not used for our 1-3/4” thick rubber pavers. For this reason, 1-3/4” rubber pavers require a concrete curb (perimeter) to safely hold them in place.
We offer our rubber pavers in black, terra cotta, grey, and forrest green. Please note that our 7/8" thickness only comes in black, terra cotta, and forrest green.
Our rubber pavers require only periodic cleaning with a water hose and sufficient water pressure to wash away dirt caught in seams and scoring. For additional cleaning, we always recommend using a commercial grader vacuum like an Elgee vacuum that is built specifically for barns.
If you have a concrete base, we recommend to add trench drains or french drains along your aisle. This will allow for ample drainage through your aisle. If you plan on installing a drain in your concrete aisle, you can simply leave it exposed (no rubber paver over it). You can also put a paver on top of the drain for aesthetics, but we recommend to drill holes into the paver to allow for easy drainage.
If you have a natural substrate (i.e. crushed stone, road base, compacted sand), drainage then occurs naturally from the surface of the rubber paver down to the natural base.
Our rubber pavers use only the highest quality recycled rubber with the best binding agents. We have clients who have had these rubber pavers for 20 years and they are still performing well! Below is a barn renovation recently done for Arroyo Del Mar, home of Steffen Peters, which features rubber pavers that are over 20 years old!
Our Rubber Pavers are delivered in either an LTL box truck or they are delivered on a 53’ long semi-truck. The truck and shipping method will depend on customer’s purchased amount of rubber pavers. If you have a smaller square footage, it will likely ship on a box truck in the form of LTL Freight. If you are purchasing a larger square footage, then it will likely arrive on a 53' long semi-truck. Please note that in either case, the truck must have plenty of room to access the driveway and to turn around.
Our rubber pavers are built in a dog-bone shape. This allows them to interlock with adjacent pavers when installed. Firstly, a firm base is critical for proper installation. Excavate approximately 12” of soil below the required finish level of the paver floor. Replace the excavated soil with about 9” of a compacted crush stone base in order to provide drainage for permeable applications. Dampened leveling sand may also be added before laying the rubber paver bricks. This will allow moisture to penetrate surface joints and drain through the crushed stone base.
Solid sub-bases such as concrete will require a perforated drain to prevent moisture build-up. Once the sub-floor has been prepped you will use either string lines or chalk lines to ensure straight lines in the preferred direction of installation.
When building (or renovating) your barn, we will often think about the safety and visual appeal. One crucial area that every horse owner pays attention to is flooring and footing. Your choice in flooring for your horse barn will largely dictate how much time, effort, and money you will spent in keeping your barn look its best.

The right decision will allow you to have more time towards riding and spending time with your horses. The right investment will also mean that your horses will lead happier, healthier lives.

Once the horse stall design is complete, clients often then think about other amenities in the barn. Nevertheless we always suggest clients to think about their barn's design. This means to understand how sunlight, airflow, and traffic will flow in the barn. This then affects decisions on the stalls, barn layout, and exterior components. Once these are done, flooring is next on the list.
