A small deviating sill or drain detail can be repeated dozens of times and thus become a project-wide risk.
NEW BUILD / BALCONY SYSTEMS
Repeatable details for complete residential blocks.
With dozens of balconies or long galleries, quality is created through repeatability. PolyShield translates sills, drains, curbs, cracks and foot loads into one executable system protocol per balcony type.Activities
Balconies and galleries as a complete system scope.
With dozens of balconies or long galleries, quality is created through repeatability. PolyShield translates sills, drains, curbs, cracks and foot loads into one executable system protocol per balcony type.
- Apartment buildings
- Housing association projects
- Gallery flats
- Balconies above utility areas
- Larger roof terraces within new construction
The technique must be clear before implementation.
- Water behind curbs or sills
- Insufficient slope
- Crack transmission in the finish
- Slippery walking areas
- Color or texture difference between building blocks
We standardize the system structure per balcony type, create trial details and process the series in a controlled manner with a UV-resistant 2K route.
Project value
What the complete system delivers.
- 01Uniform appearance
- 02Seamless waterproofing
- 03Non-slip finish
- 04Short phasing per housing block
- 05Traceable detail control
Four manageable phases.
Type classification
Balconies and galleries are grouped by surface, sill, drain and geometry.
Primer and details
Sills, bilges, drains and cracks are given a recorded detail before the plane follows.
2K membrane
An elastic waterproofing layer provides continuous protection of the building part.
Wear-resistant finish
Grip, color, UV load and cleaning determine the final finish.
Release criteria
When the system can — and cannot yet — start.
Slope
Water must demonstrably be able to go to the drain; coating does not correct a structural deficiency in slope.
Sill height
Connections to doors must be technically and structurally cleared before implementation.
Serial control
An approved test surface and test detail become the reference for the rest of the project.

Information for every decision maker.
Main contractor
A repeatable working method with clear dependencies and inspection moments.
Architect
Technical boundaries, color and texture were coordinated early with the design.
Residential investor
A maintainable outdoor area with uniform system information.
Technical questions
Frequently asked questions.
Can every balcony have the same system?+
Not automatically. Differences in substrate, slope, sills, drains and loads may require a different detail or primer route.
Is the finish completely smooth?+
For walking areas we generally recommend a controlled anti-slip structure. The grain and seal layer are tailored to grip and cleanability.
When can the balcony finish be applied?+
After release of the substrate, moisture condition, slope and connection details. The planning is linked to facade, frame and finishing work.
