The First Thing Everybody Notices Is How “Quiet” It Is!
The same recycled rubber as the shingles can also be used to mold colorful and stylish
floor tiles with acrylic grout to form a water tight surface and a cushioned surface over the
concrete to prevent the possibility of leg strain.
Plumbing and flooring can be started immediately after the roof is
completed and under the best weather conditions possible. Other trades
will appreciate that and hopefully reflect it in their bid!
We would cover the soil with poly waterproofing before putting down
this rigid 2’ EPS insulation to keep moisture away from building
materials including the water resistant foam.
In colder climates we would then pin water tubing to the foam and pressure
test it prior to placing the concrete
We then place 4” of fibrous or steel reinforced concrete, screed, level, and
float.
The rubber is also molded into flat and/or colorful rolled sheeting to be used
as flooring or carpet padding and easily restored after flooding.
The interior walls are made with steel studs, paperless and mildew resistant
sheetrock, and finished with our hardened and decorative cement coating
material. We eliminate wood (a source of rot) and paper (a source of mold
and mildew) and our hardened, water and fire resistant finish will stand up to
the most abusive treatment.
Interior doors are framed in metal, not wood, and will resist rot from
flooding, burning from fire, and force from intruders. The doors themselves
can be metal or combined with opague glass to transmit light and maintain
privacy. The metal can be painted or covered in decals for any look you
desire.
As you can see, the finished interior can easily look like any
traditional home but the walls are more durable, water and
fire resistant, with deeper window ledges.
