Most Common Product Questions For ground protection mat at Greatmats:
i need a floor for an outdoor kennel, approx. 10' x 12'. looking at your 3/4'' kit. i don't want the dog's feet to get hot. i would be ok gluing a thin top layer of lighter color to this mat, as long as it is also water-repellent (not absorbent) and UV resistant. unfortunately, the only ''colors'' you seem to have are still mostly black. What do you recommend? thanks?
Great question, perhaps our Staylock perforated tiles would be good also. Colored rubber is very expensive. UV stable rubber is in 2x2 ft patio tile types.
Do you offer 10x15 or 10x30 stall mats? We have two 10x15 stalls. Price?
We do offer custom kits. Please contact us for a quote.
Do then mats include trim pieces with an order? Thanks you.
This product does not come with border strips, other foam tiles we offer do come with border strips.
Since no borders are available can the edges be trimmed. Also I tried to order in black but it was not on the pulldown menu. Is black available?
When in stock all the colors shown on this page are available. The tiles can be cut or trimmed using a sharp utility knife as needed. Here is a quick guide from our Knowledge Base on <a href='/foam-flooring-tiles-and-mats/how-to-cut-foam-puzzle-tiles-and-mats-video.php'> how to cut foam puzzle mats.</a>
What is the best glue to glue two pieces of foam mats together to make a thicker piece?
We also sell similar foam tiles in 7/8 inch and 1 5/8 inch thickness. The foam can be glued using contact cement.
Will these mats hold up to weights and weight benches or would I need to put another mat of some sort down on top of it?
The foam tiles will indent with the weight of equipment, one could put a rubber mat under the equipment.
Are these waterproof? I want to use them for my dog, who sometimes has accidents in the house, and need to protect the flooring. Will the urine seep through and into the mat? And then into the floor? Thanks
They are about 99.5 percent waterproof, they can be scratched by dog paws. Moisture will not seep into the foam material, but might get between the seams. The tiles are made of EVA foam. To learn more about this type of foam, I invite you to visit our knowledge base and read this blog discussing the <a href='/foam-flooring/eva-vs-pe-vs-pu-know-your-foam-matting-materials.php'>types of foam used for specialty flooring.</a>
Could this floor be out over carpet?
For kids maybe, but not for exercise, the mats can slip around over the carpet.
Can you tell me what type of paint I could use, that would be durable, if I wanted to customize?
We do not have any suggestions for painting this tile.
Can this product be used as a sub floor material for Rosco Adagio Dance flooring? The product will be place on concrete. Thank you
For home dance floors we have a higher density foam tile that we recommend as a sub floor, this tile is a bit too soft for dance.
Can these be cleaned with light solutions of bleach?
These mats can be damp mopped with common household floor cleaners, avoid bleach. Test your vacuum before use.
Do these tiles come with border strips to allow for straight outside edges? Or will the tiles need to be trimmed?
These foam tiles will have interlocking edges only. Borders are not available for these tiles. Cutting is easily done with a sharp utility knife and straight edge.
Are these sold individually or in a package quantity.
These foam tiles are sold per tile.
The product description says 2'x2'. Is that the inner measurement or including the interlocking nubs
Its an overall estimate, actual coverage is about 1.97 x 1.97 ft per tile.
What are the dimensions of the mats?
2x2 feet with 1/2 half inch thickness
Can you tell me what the R value of these is? I am hoping to put them over radiant heat mats that require no more than 1.42. Thank you!
We do not have any R value testing data for the foam mats.
