WD-02 · WATERPROOFING PER BUILDING PART

PolyShield Waterproofing

Repair and waterproof metal roofs

Corrosion control and waterproofing within one coordinated work plan.

Technical context

First recognize the building part and the load.

A metal roof moves, condenses and corrodes differently than bitumen or concrete. That is why we combine targeted pre-treatment, metal-suitable primer, detail sealing and an elastic protective layer.

Problem · cause · solution

From visible defect to substantiated system route.

01 / VISIBLE

Common problems

  • Leaking overlaps and fastenings
  • Cut edge corrosion
  • Aged factory coating
  • Corrosion in gutters and connections
  • Condensation on the inside
02 / INVESTIGATIONS

Possible causes

  • Damaged coating film
  • Water and salts at plate edges
  • Thermal effect
  • Worn rings or fasteners
  • Inadequate ventilation or insulation
03 / RESOLVED

Complete system choice

Substrate, primer, details, membrane, protection and evidence are recorded as one project-specific structure.

Business added value

What the right waterproofing protects or saves.

01

Targeted lifespan extension

Deterioration is treated before corrosion leads to replacement of plates or gutters.

02

Suitable for spray application

Large and profiled surfaces can be efficiently treated airless in the appropriate environment.

03

Waterproof and protected

Overlaps, screws and gutters are integrated into the elastic system structure.

System selection

Primarily promising, then technically confirmed.

The maps show a system direction. The final variant results from inspection, test adhesion and current technical documentation.

SUITABLE SUBSTRATES
  • Steel roof plates
  • Aluminum details
  • Metal gutters and box gutters
  • Existing suitable factory coatings
TECHNICAL CHECK FIRST
  • Check residual wall thickness and structural condition
  • Degrease, desalt and remove loose corrosion
  • Test existing coating for adhesion
  • Do not confuse the cause of condensation with leakage
NOT AS A STANDARD ROUTE
  • Enclose wet or insufficiently load-bearing surfaces
  • Unknown layers without compatibility check
  • Only cover structural defects with coating
  • Performance claims without appropriate system documentation

From recording to delivery

Four steps that make the system controllable.

  1. 01

    Corrosion scan

    Metal condition, existing coating and critical details are inventoried.

  2. 02

    Pretreatment

    The necessary cleaning and surface treatment is determined and carried out with partners where necessary.

  3. 03

    Detail system

    Overlaps, fastenings, edges and gutters are given a suitable seal.

  4. 04

    Protective layer

    The final layer is tailored to UV, water, movement and desired color.

Frequently asked questions

For a targeted first project decision.

Can rust be painted over directly?

Not without assessment. Loose corrosion, salts, grease and insufficiently adhesive layers must first be removed or treated.

Does roof coating also remove condensation?

Not automatically. Condensation requires separate research into insulation, ventilation, dew point and use.
