Product Code:
Heavy Duty Mud Control Plastic Slab/Size-50CMx50CMx7Kg
Mudcontrol slabs measure 50cm x 50cm x 5.3cm each, the holes are 5cm in diameter and each unit weighs just over 7kg. They can be used in two ways: closed (holey) side up or open (grid) side up. Both sides have their specific applications and are ideal in different situations.
100% RECYCLED
The more level and even the ground, the better the result.
• Lumps or rocks need to be removed.
• Holes/dips/voids need filling before laying the slabs (with soil, manure, wood chip,
pea gravel, sand, bedding etc).
• The slabs need to be evenly supported and filled in, with a substrate such as sharp
sand or a similar medium for proper installation.
• Slabs MUST be interlinked and any outside edge tabs should be covered (with dirt/
sand/etc). Broken tabs are not generally covered by the warranty.
• Small expansion gaps need to be left.
• Don't kick/push all the slabs up tightly together (full explanation and photos below).
• Staggered slabs (like bricks) are more stable than grid style.
• Think ahead...if you might want to add rows at a later date, ensure that the leading
edge is straight and not staggered (see full explanation and photos below).
• Paths of two slabs wide MUST be staggered for stability.
• A generous topping layer is essential for animal traffic, and is a requirement for
proper installation.
PREPARATION
It's a good idea to do a bit of planning and preparation before your slabs arrive.
Laying and interlinking the slabs is very simple, but there are a few hard and fast rules
governed by physics which are important to know, as having to lift and re-lay slabs
because you made a mistake is a lot of additional effort.
First, make sure the ground is as even as possible, by flattening out any high points and
removing any big stones. The more levelled out you can get the area, the better the
final result will be. Chain harrowing or raking the ground is ideal if it's dry and lumpy or
rutted, and any dips or holes should be filled with soil, coarse sand, pea gravel, wood chip, muck heap contents, etc. to get it even. The slabs are small enough to cope with
undulations, but not with lumps and ruts which would cause them to rock back and
forth, preventing them from interconnecting and bedding in level. We don't usually
recommend using a whacker plate or a roller before laying, as the slabs need to be
able to bed into the surface they are laid onto.
Cannot rate them highly enough, bought 16mm gym mats, top quality soft rubber and not that very smelly SBR rubber. Looks hard in photos but is just right for a gym. Very helpful and great price compared to SBR rubber gym mats...
I phoned first to make sure all was real! Easy communication over emails. Quick response. Brilliant service and great price. The hollow grass mats are great quality and they are very easy to install. Ponies are very happy
I found RR&E on Amazon and their product range. Noticed they were local so gave them a call to see if I could pickup. No problem at all, in fact nothing was too much trouble. Excellent customer service all round and their products are also excellent as well.
I was not confident buying after reading the few one star reviews. The owner agreed to bring the mats to me to inspect before I paid. I was buying 18mm rubber mats for my horses. In comparison to my friends mats which she paid £60 per mat and these were £47 I definitely...
I have a good connection with the owner of the company. He is very nice to deal with and I can suggest more about the products. Its best to go for gym and farm.
Any rubber matting required? Look no further! I have recently purchased from these guys, sheet rubber to protect the back of my new van, cannot say what a superior product and range they offer you must try for yourself! The price is unbelievable too.
Bit of difficulty finding the unit on the large industrial estate but on speaking phone was guided to them. Really helpful and obliging people running this company. Bought some good quality rubber grass mats at very competitive...
Placed a order for 18mm thick matting for my stables Friday afternoon. They were dispatched on Monday and arrived Tuesday afternoon. Very happy with the goods received and the quick delivery time. Happy horses. Thank you.
Excellent Mats For any occasion. I've got the directly from this company and laid them down in my garage. They take the shock from the weights and wonderful customer service from Shony and colleague. Thank you and fast delivery
Good quality rubber mats with best price. Delivered my rubber mats on correct time and also those guys also helped me to install them on my garage. I am referring it to all my friends.
