- www.dustram.com/ Hi, my name is Jack King, owner of Arizona Home Floors www.azhomefloors.com/ and president of DustRam, LLC. I'd like to take a moment to explain some of the benefits of owning ProKnee® knee pads for your crew members and yourself. You may wonder why I would choose to promote another company. It's simple and it ties in with my philosophy on how tools should be created. ProKnee® is dedicated to building the best knee pad, and they never stop improving on its design and function. With the kind of work my company does, I can you it's extremely rugged.
My company Arizona Home Floors deals extensively in the ultra-clean removal of tile, slate, stone, saltillo, and porcelain using the DustRam™ System. The surface of the floor is often extremely cluttered with sharp, loose and uneven debris. Our ProKnee® knee pads allow my crew members, including myself to easily and quickly position our knees over crumbly, loose, and sharp tile, even as we work from one area to another. We can work harder, longer, and more precisely; all of us without pain or discomfort. I would like to also send a message for those of you who own your own flooring installation crews. I can tell you from one business owner to another; my profits are higher because my crew members stay more comfortable while completing their task. The result is superior production, which translates into more profit.
In this video, you'll hear how Pat can work 8-12 hours on his knees, and not suffer discomfort or pain in his knees or back. Since getting my first pair about 13 years ago, I can also personally attest my knees and back have been spared a lot of injuries and pain.
If you plan on being in the floor installation business for a long time AND you recognize your body makes your living, you'll want to own a pair of these to make your jobs safer, easier, faster, and more profitable.
Regards,
Jack King

i just bought a pair . cant wait to where them at work .
You'll like them! Makes moving over irregular surfaces more comfortable.
yes I have considered the rebuild kit, but I always buy a new pair and the old pair usually I give away to The apprentices.The best knee pads ever though
when I first started installing flooring I used the small leather ones and my knees hurt after 6 hours of work. was having knee problems and was rethinking my trade. I used the leather ones for 2 years then I bought Pro knee and I've been going strong with healthy knees now for 12 years. I buy a new pair every three years so they last a long time, using them every day. my suggestion is get the 1 inch knee pads. If you plan on using them occasionally they might last you forever
Hi, have you ever considered purchasing the rebuild kits for your knee pads? It does not take that long to rebuild them and it helps to save money.
I also just bought them from Durox Hamilton... taking FOREVER to get to me.. 4 weeks?
on my 3rd set swear by them..
Hi Michael, I have about 6 pairs total for all my crew members. I buy the rebuild kits as they are needed and keep them going over and over. I still have my first pair from about 16 years ago and they have been rebuilt several times. My favorite pad thickness is 5/8". They seem to be best at helping me keeping my balance when I am crawling over broken debris.
I just bought a pair and I gotta say it's hard transitioning from soft shell Mopar knee pads to these I'm haveing difficulty adjusting I keep hearing it takes a while to get used too them it's making me change up my style of work I switched in the middle of tge day I can tell they will be eventually broke in and comfortable
Hi Chris, it does take awhile to get used to wearing them. I found the best way to move around is to spread out the weight of your body along your shins, rather than strictly balancing on your knee caps. Like any other knee pad if you position your knees incorrectly while moving they want to shift. Make sure that when you put your knee down into place the knee pad is directly under your knee and not off to the side. With practice you will begin to instinctively make your body move appropriately. Once you have finally gotten used to them your back and your knees will thank you! You will wonder how you ever did installations/tear-outs without them.

+Jack King it's funny u mentioned the shins because I noticed my shins have been taking the brunt of me finding a comfortable way to work I'm used to moving around at a fast pace and it has slowed me down drasticly but I'm only a week into using them but everyone keeps telling me just wait you'll love em in tge long run but i have noticed it got the top of my feet off the floor which is a typical discomfort I always have can't wait till they mold to my knees
What type of installations do you currently do? Carpet, tile, wood or other types? I will be honest I did not find them that helpful when installing conventional stretch carpet, especially when I had to use a kicker to set a wall before power stretching. We now predominantly tear out ceramic, stone and other flooring and find them useful to help bridge the gaps in the uneven demolished flooring during the first phase of removal. They are also great when it comes time to grind over the floors to remove thinset and other contaminants.
