Train to install itClimate and what it means
Boston has cold, snowy winters with coastal storms and warm summers. In a cold climate, the winter facts matter most. Safescapes says poured rubber is bound with resin throughout so it can expand and contract through freeze-thaw cycles instead of cracking or lifting. It's safe to shovel and snow-blow, ice doesn't bond well to the porous surface, and ice melter is safe on it. The company doesn't recommend snow plows.
Where it fits in Boston
Front steps and entranceways that get shoveled and salted, plus playgrounds and backyard patios. Safescapes says ice melter is safe on the rubber.
Poured rubber usually goes over what's already there. Concrete is the most common base, and Safescapes also lists stone, asphalt, interlock, wooden decks and gravel. That keeps resurfacing jobs simpler than tearing out and re-pouring. After installation, the typical wait is 48 hours before walking on it, depending on temperature and humidity.
