About Poured-in-Place Rubber
A seamless, colorful surface that cushions falls and welcomes wheels
Poured-in-place rubber is installed on site as a smooth, continuous surface. It cushions falls, drains well and allows wheelchairs and strollers to roll across easily. It can be done in solid colors or in playful designs.
It needs a well-prepared base, and installation depends on weather. We plan the base, the thickness for your equipment and the color design with you.
- Seamless surface with cushioning
- Works for wheels, strollers and walkers

Before and After
See the Difference
Drag the handle to compare. Photos are illustrative.
Photos on this site are illustrative and show typical playgrounds and yards, not completed Music City Playgrounds projects. Every play area is planned and confirmed with a visit before work begins, and permit, HOA and local requirements depend on your property and location. Figures in our tools are planning estimates only.
Is poured rubber better than loose fill?
It has different strengths: it is seamless, accessible and low-maintenance, and it costs more up front. We help you compare.
Can we have custom designs?
Yes. Colors, shapes, games and pathways can be added.
What weather does installation need?
Dry, mild weather. We plan schedules around conditions.
