FAQs

  • Who is Polyseal? Types of industries you work in, are you certified for specific applications, etc?

    Poly Seal is a coating applicator focused on providing tough, long lasting coating systems for the harshest conditions. Poly Seal has created systems for balcony applications, wash areas, and dairies to name a few. Poly Seal works closely with many vendors to get the best training possible to confidently apply the best products on the market.

  • What type of work do you do? Trains, planes and automobiles? What makes you the best, etc.?

    DECKS/BALCONIES:

    We live in a day where you are only limited by your imagination. This is seen in many custom building projects with deck, balcony, and walkway design. Many times these are built over living space where a failure in the protective membrane can lead to expensive, and catastrophic damage. This is where a POLAR DECK coating system is essential and will leave you completely at ease knowing you put down the best possible protection.


    WASHROOMS:

    Many processing plants contain areas or rooms designated to cleaning processing equipment daily. Consequently, these rooms are almost always wet. A robust, cleanable surface is necessary to prevent concrete deterioration and bacteria growth. Our CLEAN COAT system offers a solid monolithic coating that can be cleaned and maintained with ease.


    DAIRIES:

    Within the dairy world cows don’t take breaks. Many dairies milk 24 hrs. a day making down times near impossible for recoating situations. We have developed methods and systems to accommodate these small windows of time and correct the failures. High acid content in milk can create spalls, cracks, and expose bacteria harboring aggregate in concrete that will make every inspection nerve racking. With our DAIRY DECK coating system you will save time, money, and get off the inspector’s radar.


    CLARIFIERS/TANKS/LIFT STATIONS:

    Along with the endless tank applications from industry to industry comes the need for coatings that can tolerate a vast array of chemical and organic abuse. Each tank has specific needs and constraints to consider when selecting the appropriate coating system. That is why here at Poly Seal we have collected a library of case studies and aligned ourselves with the necessary vendors to help our customers choose the right system. We have applied many of these systems and we know how critical it is to have the right coating for the right tank. Check out our clarifier project that was featured in Coatings Pro Magazine.

    FOUNDATION SEALING:

    Ground water can cause many problems to a structure. From damage to the interior finishes to structural breakdown of footers and walls. With the proper wall seal system, moisture penetrating foundation walls is a thing of the past. You can rest easy knowing water will not go through the polyurea based shield on your foundation’s exterior. Along with protection against water intrusion the system will add structural integrity to dilapidated concrete. There are many factors that play into water problems and how they affect your foundation. If you have a concern in this area let us help.


    MANY, MANY, MORE APPLICATIONS:

    Bringing mobility to hot, high pressure, sprayed polyurea allows Poly Seal to reach into almost any industry that requires long lasting, tough coatings. Here is a list of some more polyurea applications:

    -Truck bed liner

    -Boat hull protection

    -Manhole restoration

    -Water features and pond liners

    -Irrigation canal crack repair

    -Secondary Containment

    -Roofing

    -Kennel and zoo enclosure

    -Stairways/Walkways

    -Sealing HVAC systems

  • Where do you work (all of Idaho, eastern Oregon, etc), could you get military clearance, could you do work for Micron or other sensitive businesses, things like this.

    At Poly Seal we have mobilized coating systems that are normally done in shop. We can bring the best application to your facility or job site and are willing to travel as needed. We are positioned out of Western Idaho and can cover many areas into Oregon, Montana, Utah, and Nevada. Poly Seal works with many large companies and is very familiar with adhering to safety trainings, policies, and protocols. We are certified in the systems we install and comply with architects and engineers to get your job done correctly.

  • When is the best time to apply coatings? Is there temperature issues, seasonal issues, etc.

    Every coating application has its own challenges that come with it. At Poly Seal we thrive in coming up with the right solutions to the problems that can arise. At the end of the day, every coating system is only as solid as the preparation that was done to the substrate. We do all necessary testing to assure the best possible outcome with the coating systems we apply.

  • How do you go about the process from quote to final billing. How long for a quote, do you take measurements, how long is the prep process, how long is application, how long to dry for curing, etc..

    There are many variables from coating system to coating system when it comes to our process.


    Typically we will respond within an hour of initial contact. We are happy to answer preliminary questions to get you heading in the right direction for the best coating solution. If we have determined we are the best solution for your application we will normally be able to meet onsite within two days of initial contact and have a bid to you shortly after. We strive to accommodate scheduling and circumstantial constraints. During outages and downtimes we do what is necessary to get your coating system installed and back into service. Most of our coating systems boast fast return-to-service times and are ready for traffic the moment we leave the site.
