Walkways in Homes, Churches, Senior Homes, Retail Stores, Business and Residential Buildings, Schools and Universities, Parks, Walking Tracks, and many others can all benefit from rubber surfacing to ensure a safe, anti-slip and attractive surface. The characteristics of rubber surfaces actually facilitate rapid melting of ice. And, because of its flexibility, any ice that does form can be broken up more easily. Stop salting your driveway and start walking with confidence..
Snow removal is much easier with rubber paving. Rubber paving maintains a slightly porous textured surface which affords two advantages for Canada’s harsh winter snow and ice. Firstly, water does not pool easily on the surface, reducing the thin layer of glare ice that is the cause of many falls and injuries. Secondly, for heavier snow/ice layers the textured surface makes it easier to scrape as compared with concrete where the bottom layer of ice adheres with a ferocious tenacity. If needed it is safe to use salt or any other de-icer. We recommend using a plastic shovel and outfitting your snow blower with plastic stripping.
YES – rubber surfacing is typically installed over sub-surfaces such as concrete, asphalt, paving stones, or compacted granular. Some applications have varying substrate that requires proper base preparation. Typically, any solid surface is OK to surface. You don’t need to remove your old asphalt or concrete surface to apply rubber paving over, which is considered additional cost saving.
Shercom has rubber surfacing installations that have been around for over 20 years, and they are still looking great. Rubber paving is a very durable product. The first rubber paved driveway was installed by Shercom Industries in Saskatoon in 1998 and still looks as good as the day it was applied! With a little care and attention, plan on your Shercom rubber surfacing to last a very long time.

Rubber Paving is excellent. I had my driveway done – 1,200 sq. ft. So glad I went this route. Easy to keep clean, Show and ice melt so fast. Neighbors can’t believe it. The only way to go.
My Shercom driveway is 12 years old. It is great and I am still getting compliments on it. I have had total strangers come to my door and ask me where I got my driveway! So many positive compliments!!
Had my driveway done by them. They did an awesome job. It’s been over 5 years and it still looks great.
