    Where can I buy rubber pavers ?
    Rubber pavers needed for outside lanai. 7' x 13'
    These are recycled from old tires, come in various colors.
    I need the ones 3/4" high maximum, "dogbone style"
    preferred, however, I'll take any suggestions.

    This item is not available at Lowe's or Home Depot.

    Ferchak48 As a mason I never used them. If you could do a favor get back and let me know if the patio gets to hot from heat gain on the rubber blocks.

    That was the biggest complaint from the gray composite decking when it came out was heat gain and burned bare feet.

    Funny you should mention that 21. I did a pool deck for a relative and all I ever heard about was how MY deck burned their feet. Well, heck, they picked the material and color but I got the blame, those darn carpenters.

    Had the exact problem to the point I refuse to install it anymore not to mention the extreme cost diff in wood to composite.

    Also there are paver's for driveways that grass can grow in between the paves and looks Eco friendly and great in the pictures. My first thought was how someone needs a warning label on this. If the paver's heat up too much then it will KILL the grass in between the gaps of the paver's if there's not enough rainfall to support the grass to grow.

    Needless to say I don't install that either]

    So this is why I was curious of the OPs results later
