Diana K on Feb 28, 2012We are working with a charity to remake a BR for a boy with CP. The floor is uneven, so I was thinking this may have some sort of cushioning and hide some of the imperfections. It also offers some color options to do some fun design. I am concerned about off-gasing, odors, etc. If anyone has other ideas on a good product (we are on a low budget), I would welcome ideas. Thought about sheet vinyl, but fun color options aren't great.Helpful Reply

HandyANDY - Handyman & All Repairs, LLC on Feb 29, 2012So AWESOME! I've yet to install rubber flooring other than in a garage so I tried to do some research. Aside from scuffs from sliding heavy furniture , I couldn't find any drawbacks. There are a ton of different styles and types to choose from and you might even be able to get a donation from a supplier given the nature of your project. These folks seemed to have a good selection: http://www.floormatcompany.com Please let us know how it turns out and thanks again for doing what you do!Helpful Reply
