Hi Flooring Lady, I thought would inform you about a Poured in Place, UV stable, grease impervious, polyurethane sealed, pebble appearance rubberized surface called AQUA-FLEX. It is a new offering from PEBBLE-FLEX, which is a terrific outdoor surface for playgrounds, pool decks, splash-pads, patios etc. It also consists of Polyurethane Bonded Urethane Pebbles but is left porous to allow for drainage. No fading, 3/8" of slightly cushioned deck, supreme crack resistance, easy repair, cooler than most other surfaces- it has become our sole product offering we are so pleased with it. Just figured I'd inform the Flooring Lady ;-) Please check out our website and pebbleflex dot com too.

Normally I delete "advertising" posts, but I checked out your website and it does appear to be a very good product. So......... I'm leaving your comment up and I thank you for dropping in and telling us about it!

Posted by: v phillips at September 6, 2008 06:25 PMHello v phillips,
I'd go to Google and type in: commercial "rubber flooring" exactly like above - quotes and all. You should get plenty of sources, articles, etc.

Posted by: The Flooring Lady at September 7, 2008 11:40 AMI am trying to find a commercial grade laminate (wood grain) for a restaurant floor. I am concerned about sound dampening and understand there are products with a "rubberized" backing which should help in that regard. Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks.

Posted by: tjk at October 8, 2008 10:17 AMHi tjk -- yes, there are such products and they work well. Another alternative (pointed out to me by another reader just the other day!) is to install a layer of cork underneath regular laminate flooring. Sometimes it's more cost effective.

Posted by: The Flooring Lady at October 9, 2008 07:25 AMWe are going to be cleaning the kitchen floor area for a Cafe & Bakery. The concrete floor is 10-yrs old and was poured with color mixed in. After cleaning the floors, what do you recommend as a sealer?

Posted by: Don at November 19, 2008 02:52 PMI would recommend purchasing and 'industrial' flooring sealer, they're usually more durable. Just be sure to buy one in the type of floor finish you want, low sheen, medium sheen, high sheen (matte, satin or glossy finish). You might also have to use a buffer to achieve the high gloss finish.

Posted by: The Flooring Lady at November 20, 2008 02:22 PMWould porcelain be better than ceramic tile in a commercial kitchen?

They'd both work fine. The porcelain is harder, so that is something to consider.
