Poly-Coat System

High-Performance Protective Coatings for Concrete Surfaces

Poly coat systems provide a durable, seamless coating designed to protect concrete from moisture, wear, chemicals, and environmental exposure. At Premium Surface Solutions, we install professional poly coat systems that deliver long-term performance for residential, commercial, and industrial projects throughout Utah.

Our poly coat solutions are engineered for strength, flexibility, and longevity, making them ideal for demanding environments and high-traffic areas.

What Is a Poly-Coat System?

A poly coat system is a liquid-applied protective coating that cures into a seamless, non-porous surface. Once bonded to properly prepared concrete, it forms a strong barrier that resists water intrusion, abrasion, staining, and surface deterioration.
Unlike traditional coatings, poly coat systems remain flexible, allowing them to perform well in Utah’s changing temperatures while maintaining structural integrity and appearance over time.

Poly-Coat Applications

Poly coat systems can be customized for a wide range of uses, including:

  • Garage floors and parking areas
  • Basements and interior concrete floors
  • Commercial and industrial facilities
  • Balconies, patios, and covered exterior surfaces
  • Mechanical rooms and utility areas
  • Athletic and recreational concrete surfaces

Each system is selected based on surface condition, traffic levels, and exposure requirements.

Pros of Polycoat Waterproof Deck Coatings

1. Excellent Waterproof Protection

Polycoat systems create a continuous, seamless waterproof membrane that stops water from penetrating the deck substrate.
This prevents:

  • Water damage to structure
  • Interior leaks under living spaces
  • Rot, mold, and wood deterioration

2. Freeze–Thaw Durability

In climates like Utah where temperatures fluctuate widely, Polycoat protects concrete from:

  • Freeze–thaw cycles
  • Surface scaling
  • Spalling caused by trapped moisture

This extends the life of the deck surface significantly.

3. Chloride & Salt Resistance

from winter de-icers, pool areas, or marine environments can accelerate concrete deterioration.
Polycoat resists:

  • Chlorides
  • Saltwater intrusion
  • Corrosion of embedded steel

This makes it ideal for bridges, balconies, garages, and pool decks.

4. Fast Cure & Traffic Return

Many Polycoat waterproofing systems cure quickly, allowing:

  • Pedestrian traffic in hours
  • Vehicle traffic in a short timeframe

This minimizes downtime on residential and commercial jobs.

5. Seamless, Monolithic Protection

Unlike sheet membranes or isolating layers, Polycoat:

  • Has no seams or overlaps where water can sneak in
  • Forms one continuous surface
  • Doesn’t peel off like tapes or adhesives can

6. UV & Thermal Stability

Quality Polycoat systems stand up to:

  • UV exposure
  • Heat cycling
  • Temperature extremes

This helps prevent chalking, cracking, and degradation over time — especially in sunny climates.

7. Slip-Resistant Finishes

Polycoat systems can be finished with textured broadcast or aggregates to provide:

  • Safety under wet conditions
  • Better traction around pools and outdoor stairs

8. Aesthetic Customization

You can choose finishes that:

  • Match architectural design
  • Lighten or darken surface color for heat management
  • Blend with surrounding exterior materials

This makes them versatile for both functional and decorative use.

9. Enhances Structural Longevity

By keeping water out of the slab and preventing chloride ingress, Polycoat coatings protect:

  • Reinforcement from rust
  • Concrete from deterioration
  • Structural integrity long-term

This can delay or eliminate costly repairs down the road.

10. Works Over Uneven or Old Concrete

Polycoat waterproof membranes can:

  • Bridge small surface cracks
  • Be applied over prepared existing decks
  • Renew aged surfaces without full slab replacement

11. Minimal Maintenance

Once installed properly:

  • Periodic cleaning is usually all that’s needed
  • No waxing or frequent recoats like decorative floors

This translates to lower lifecycle costs.

Poly-Coat Applications

1. Elevated Residential Decks

Polycoat is ideal for outdoor wood or concrete decks attached      to a home.Why it works well in Utah:

  • Protects against rain and snow melt
  • Prevents water intrusion into the home
  • Resists freeze-thaw damage
  • Helps avoid hidden rot and structural decay

Great for:

  • Balcony decks
  • Stair landings
  • Multi-level patios
2. Covered Patios & Outdoor Living Spaces

Even covered areas can get moisture from wind-driven rain or condensation.
Polycoat waterproofing:

  • Ensures that water stays where it belongs
  • Protects underlying structure
  • Prevents mold and mildew issues

Useful for:

  • Pergola-covered decks
  • Outdoor kitchens
  • Roof-over patios
3. Commercial Outdoor Decks

For restaurants, hotels, apartment complexes, and retail spaces, Polycoat is a high-performance waterproof system that:

  • Handles heavy foot traffic
  • Withstands salt, ice melt & cleaning chemicals
  • Provides a finished surface with decorative options

Important for:

  • Rooftop terraces
  • Balcony corridors
  • Walkout patios
4. Concrete Balcony & Catwalk Systems

These are high-risk areas for rusting rebar and delamination due to water intrusion.
Polycoat systems:

  • Seal the slab surface
  • Block moisture and salts
  • Protect reinforcement and structural integrity
5. Concrete Rooftop Terraces

Common in multi-family and commercial construction in Utah, rooftop terraces see:

  • UV exposure
  • Wind-driven moisture
  • Thermal cycling

Polycoat systems provide:

  • Waterproof membrane
  • UV-stable finish
  • Durable long-term protection
6. Under Tile or Pavers

When used as a waterproofing base:

  • Polycoat prevents water from migrating through grout lines
  • Protects below-grade or below-living-space structures
  • Ideal for tiled balconies or patios above living spaces

Pros & Considerations

Pros
  • Seamless, non-porous finish
  • Excellent moisture and water resistance
  • Strong abrasion, impact, and chemical resistance
  • Flexible material reduces cracking
  • Fast curing with minimal downtime
  • Easy to clean and maintain
  • Long-lasting performance
Considerations
  • Higher upfront cost than basic coatings
  • Requires professional installation
  • Not ideal for DIY applications
  • UV exposure may require a protective topcoat

Poly-Coat Applications

Poly coat systems can be customized for a wide range of uses, including:

  • Garage floors and parking areas
