What It Is
Poured-in-place (PIP) rubber is a dual-layer, slip-resistant surface that protects against falls. Ideal for playgrounds, schools, parks, and other public play spaces, this custom cushioned system takes the hit so kids don’t have to.
How It Works
While the base layer of SBR buffings provides shock absorption, the top layer of EPDM rubber supports comfort and vibrant color. We blend these mixtures and trowel by hand, installing them on site for a seamless finish.
Why It Matters
It might look simple, but there’s a lot going on under the surface. It’s not just about looking good. It’s about keeping communities safe and putting your name on something that stands up when it counts.

Many variables factor into the life of poured-in-place rubber surfacing, such as environmental conditions, foot traffic, and maintenance, just to name a few. However, the surfacing can last up to 12 years with routine inspections and a comprehensive maintenance program. Schools, parks, and cities choose PIP rubber surfacing because it handles tough weather and high foot traffic, offering a great long-term return on investment (ROI).
No. While it’s a great option for playgrounds, this durable, ADA-compliant surfacing option is also ideal for schools, churches, and other recreational spaces, both indoors and outdoors.
First things first, our experts inspect and assess the site. Then, we install the compacted aggregate sub-base. Next, we pour the SBR buffing layer to ensure impact attenuation meets or exceeds ASTM safety standards for critical fall heights.
Afterwards, we pour the EPDM rubber color layer to maximize its strength and cushioning. Once the surface is cured, we perform rigorous tests. Then, we walk you through the final space, certifying that everything meets your standards and public safety codes. Finally, we issue you the product warranty.
Weather permitting, the average project usually takes 2 to 5 days to install poured-in-place rubber surfacing.
Absolutely. Besides building from scratch or replacing things altogether, we do repairs on poured-in-place rubber to extend the lifespans of existing surfaces.
If the base layer is still solid, we can resurface or “re-cap” it with a new EPDM top coat to address cracks, keeping your space safe, compliant, and looking great. Not sure whether a fresh finish and a few patches are all you need? When we inspect your site, we provide honest recommendations, always considering your short and long-term goals.
Our CPSI field supervisors and OSHA-trained technicians don’t just sign off on finished surfaces. They handle every detail, making sure it’s done right.
We don’t do smoke and mirrors. From quoting to final inspections, we explain the who, what, where, how, when, and why, because this is your project.
Safety is the foundation of everything we do. It comes first, last, and always, ensuring we meet or exceed ASTM, ADA, and IPEMA standards.
Our playground surfacing company’s got the right surface and the right crew. Now, all we need is the right plan.
