Once drainage, insulation, greenery or paving has been installed, the membrane and critical details are barely accessible.
NEW BUILD / PODIUM WATERPROOFING
Verifiably waterproof before the system disappears from view.
Under paving, greenery or a residential deck, repair after completion is expensive. That is why PolyShield treats waterproofing as a controlled construction phase with clear demarcation, detail registration and control before the protective layer is applied.Activities
Stage decks and roof gardens as a complete system scope.

- Courtyard gardens above parking garages
- Roof gardens at apartments
- Planters and raised borders
- Podium decks with paving
- Stay decks above commercial spaces
The technique must be clear before implementation.
- Hidden leakage above user space
- Damage due to subsequent disciplines
- Unclear connection to drains
- Root loading without appropriate documentation
- No check before covering
We phase details, membrane, quality control and protection as separate release steps and digitally record the condition before capping.
Project value
What the complete system delivers.
- 01Seamlessly over complex geometry
- 02Check before inaccessibility
- 03Less recovery risk after delivery
- 04Clear interface with green and paving package
- 05Digital detailed file
Four manageable phases.
Design and demarcation control
Slopes, compartments, drains, joints and connecting disciplines are laid out in advance.
Details and primer
The substrate and all vertical connections are released before the flat membrane.
2K membrane
A continuous layer is applied with extra control in critical areas.
Test and protect
After inspection or agreed watertightness check, an appropriate protective layer follows.
Release criteria
When the system can — and cannot yet — start.
Access details
All details must be accessible and ready before the waterproofing phase starts.
Root resistance
This performance is only included if the chosen complete structure is demonstrably suitable.
Follow-up disciplines
Protection and transfer to gardener, roofer or paver are recorded in writing.
QUALITY FILEDon't just apply.
Don't just apply.
Also deliver demonstrably.
- ✓ Demarcation and detail overview
- ✓ Work area and inspection plan
- ✓ Photos before covering
- ✓ Registration of membrane consumption
- ✓ Transfer document for subsequent discipline
Information for every decision maker.
Developer
Lower chance of costly hidden defects after delivery.
Main contractor
Clear hold points and transfer between waterproofing, greenery and paving.
Advisor
Testable system boundaries and supporting documents for the chosen structure.
Technical questions
Frequently asked questions.
Is every liquid waterproofing root resistant?+
No. Root resistance must be demonstrable for the chosen product and system structure; we do not adopt that property as a general claim.
Can the waterproofing be covered directly?+
Only after the agreed inspection, repair of any residual points and release. The protective layer must then prevent damage from subsequent work.
Who makes drainage and green construction?+
This can be carried out by specialized partners or other construction parties. The interfaces and responsibilities must be clear in advance.
