Does anyone know if this mat will conform to a floor drain? I am looking to do this on the game room side of my garage. There is a floor drain with a slight slope that I really wouldn't mind covering up or possibly cutting out part of the mat to uncover the drain. The big question is would the mat settle down to cover the slope to the drain or is there a better flooring solution to contour to the slope of the drain? I plan on installing a pool table on whatever floor covering I use. The other 2/3's of the garage is done with Polyurea. Thanks

I have the G-floor mats in my garage and from my experience with them I believe they would eventually conform to the slope. You may need to take a heat gun or hair dryer and warm up the mat to help it along. The mat can also be glued down around the drain.

The product does conform very well. Depending on the temperature it may take it a little time to relax. Several of our customers have had sucess with using a 1/4" spade bit for circular drains and drilling multiple holes in the area of the drain as opposed to cutting out for the whole drain

Thanks for the responses! Is there anything that confirms better with sloped floor drains ( other than epoxy?)
