Kakeru Koumuten Co., Ltd. has prepared the following warehouses and material storage areas to provide low-cost, high-quality exterior renovations such as skylight installation.
We have established 5 bases centered around Yokohama City for material storage and showrooms.
In-House Scaffolding Materials
We own the scaffolding materials necessary for temporary scaffolding required for skylight installation, allowing us to assemble scaffolding in-house.
By performing scaffolding work with our own scaffolding team instead of outsourcing, we can cut costs on scaffolding work and respond quickly in emergencies.
We have scaffolding materials for approximately 50 houses!
Storage of Materials in Our Large In-House Warehouse
We store materials used for exterior renovations.
By ordering a large quantity of materials at once, we canprocure materials at a lower cost!
Additionally, we always have stock available, allowing us torespond quickly in emergencies!
In-house Waste Separation
During skylight construction, various waste materials such as roofing materials, glass, and wood are generated.
While most contractors dispose of them all together, by separating and recycling waste materials, we can significantly cut down on waste disposal costs.
Showroom Dedicated to Exterior Renovations
In our showroom, you can not only have meetings but also
directly check the actual roofing materials and colors.
You can also perform color simulations for exterior painting and check thermal insulation properties using a thermal insulation testing machine!

Since the same person will manage sales and construction, smooth communication is ensured.

Skylight installation involves dismantling or removing roofing materials, so by performing it simultaneously with roofing replacement or covering work, you can significantly reduce costs!

We have qualified professionals such as national certified sheet metal workers and painting technicians, and we are confident in our construction techniques.

Subsidies and Grants Available for Skylight Construction in Koganei City, Tokyo
In Koganei City, Tokyo, there are potential subsidies available when conducting skylight construction!
For details, please contact our company or your local government!
Child-Rearing Green Housing Support Project
Eligible Participants
Households with children (households with children under 18) and young couples are eligible for new construction or purchase of energy-efficient homes, as well as energy-saving renovations of existing homes. For new constructions, the builder or purchaser is eligible, while for renovations, the contractor who orders the work is eligible for the subsidy.
Requirements
For new homes, it is necessary to meet high energy efficiency standards set by the government, such as exceeding ZEH standards. For renovations, the work must improve the energy efficiency of the home through insulation upgrades or the introduction of energy-saving equipment. In both cases, it is necessary to contract with a registered business and complete the work within the specified period.
Maximum Subsidy Amount
For new constructions, the maximum subsidy ranges from 400,000 yen to 1,600,000 yen per unit, depending on the performance category of the home. For renovations, the maximum subsidy is between 400,000 yen and 600,000 yen per unit, depending on the content of the work. In either case, even if multiple works are performed, the total subsidy cannot exceed this maximum amount.
Subsidy Rate
This program does not provide a subsidy based on a certain percentage of the construction cost; instead, a predetermined “fixed subsidy” is granted based on the content of the work and performance category. Therefore, in effect, the government covers part of the construction cost.
For more details, please see here!
Advanced Window Renovation Project
Eligible Participants
Homeowners of existing homes (single-family homes and apartment buildings) who are conducting insulation renovation work on windows and openings are eligible. The actual subsidy application process is carried out by registered “window renovation contractors” with the government, and the granted subsidies are fully refunded to homeowners through discounts on construction costs.
Requirements
Eligible works include window renovations aimed at improving insulation performance, such as installing interior windows, replacing exterior windows, and replacing glass in existing homes. It is necessary to use products that meet the insulation performance standards set by the government and to enter into a construction contract with a registered window renovation contractor. Additionally, the total subsidy amount must be 50,000 yen or more, and the work must start and be completed within the specified construction period.
Maximum Subsidy Amount
The maximum subsidy is 2 million yen per household. Even if multiple windows are renovated, the total subsidy that can be received for the same residence will be up to this maximum amount.
Subsidy Rate
The subsidy rate is approximately half of the construction cost. The actual subsidy amount is set at a fixed rate based on the type of window (inner window, outer window, glass), size, and insulation performance category, resulting in a total that is about 50% of the construction cost.

Customer Testimonials
Advantages and Disadvantages of Skylights
Advantages of Skylights
High Light Transmission
First, the advantage of skylights is their high light transmission.
When natural light enters the room abundantly, it creates a sense of openness, making you feel more comfortable.
Energy Savings
This also contributes to high light transmission, allowing you to save on electricity bills due to the presence of natural light. As a result, you will reduce the need to turn on electric lights during the day, making it suitable for energy savings.
Good Ventilation
By installing a skylight, you can open and close it, which improves ventilation.
Warm air rises, enhancing airflow as well.
High Privacy
In areas where houses are closely packed together, large windows can expose the interior of your home. However, with skylights, since they are installed on the roof, your privacy is maintained.
Disadvantages of Skylights
Risk of Leaks
The biggest concern when installing a skylight is the risk of leaks. Since the roof is opened for installation, there is a certain risk of leaks.
However, with proper installation and regular maintenance, the risk can be minimized significantly.
Regular Maintenance Required
Skylights need maintenance every 5 to 10 years to prevent leaks. While maintenance may seem bothersome, it is recommended to do it regularly to avoid damage to the interior and wooden parts caused by leaks.
Noise from Rain
Since skylights are installed directly on the roof, the sound of raindrops hitting the glass can easily be transmitted indoors, which is a disadvantage. This sound can be particularly noticeable during heavy rain or storms.
However, this is not the case for all skylights. By choosing double-glazed glass or products with high sound insulation, the noise from rain can be reduced.

Skylight Glass Replacement Work – Construction Steps
1. Remove the surrounding materials of the skylight
First, we will remove the cover materials and securing materials around the skylight. These materials will be reused, so we will take them off carefully.
2. Protection
We will protect the area around the skylight indoors.
This is to ensure that no debris falls inside.
3. Removal of Existing Glass
Next, after removing the cover materials, we will take out the existing glass.
4. Installation of New Glass
Once the existing glass is removed, we will install the new glass. We will carefully install it to avoid breaking, just as we did during removal.
5. Waterproofing Treatment
When replacing the skylight glass, waterproofing treatment may be necessary.
We will perform waterproofing around the glass using butyl tape and other materials.
6. Restoration of Materials and Sealing
We will reattach the covers and fasteners that held the glass in place.
It is important to ensure that the installation method matches the type of skylight used, as improper installation could lead to leaks. We will check that the fittings are securely fastened.
We will perform waterproofing treatment around the frame using sealing materials.
How to Choose a Skylight Contractor
There are many skylight contractors in Koganei City, and it can be confusing to choose the right one.
Therefore, when requesting skylight replacement work or leak repairs, let’s check the following 5 points.
● They have extensive experience in skylight work.
● Confirm if they can also handle roofing work.
● Check for warranties and aftercare services.
● Obtain estimates from multiple contractors (at least 3 companies).
● Confirm if they perform roof renovations in-house.
By checking these 5 points, you will be able to choose a reliable contractor.
They have extensive experience in skylight work.
Skylight contractors often have websites that showcase their work history.
Additionally, if they provide detailed explanations of repair work with photos, it can give you peace of mind when you decide to request repairs.
If you are concerned about whether the contractor you are about to hire will respond properly, choose one with extensive repair experience.
It can also be effective to look at reviews of skylight contractors on Google and review sites!
If there are many negative reviews or no reviews at all, it may be wise to refrain from requesting their services.
Kakeru Koumuten Co., Ltd. specializes in exterior work, so we receive many requests for skylight replacement work.
Confirm if they can handle roofing work.
Since skylights are installed on roofs, roofing work is often involved.
If the contractor lacks knowledge about roofs or cannot handle roofing work, it could lead to leaks after installation or high construction costs, resulting in potential troubles.
Moreover, since skylight replacement or removal may require partial dismantling of the roof and restoration, performing roof overlay work or re-roofing at the same time can significantly reduce costs!
Our company specializes in roofing work, so we can propose the optimal plan tailored to your needs for roofing work associated with skylight installation.
Check for warranties and after-sales maintenance
When choosing a skylight contractor, let’s confirm the availability of warranties.
If a leak occurs after the skylight installation, having a leak warranty from the contractor ensures that repairs can be done free of charge, providing peace of mind!
Additionally, companies that offer warranty periods are often confident in their work, making it a key criterion for selecting a contractor!
Warranty periods vary by contractor and the nature of the work, but typically range from 1 to 10 years.
Emergency repairs or partial repairs often do not come with a leak warranty.
Moreover, some contractors offer after-sales services in addition to warranties, so be sure to check if the contractor you are considering has warranties andafter-sales services.
Kakeru Koumuten Co., Ltd. sends out annual DM for after-sales maintenance, allowing for yearly inspections.
For simple repairs like partial sealing, we provide support free of charge.
Obtain estimates from multiple contractors (at least 3)
When requesting skylight installation, obtain estimates from multiple contractors.
Even for the same repair or replacement work, the repair costs and warranties or after-sales services may differ between contractors.
Additionally, obtaining multiple estimates makes it easier to negotiate prices.
To request your desired repair contractor at a lower price, obtaining estimates from multiple contractors is essential.
When comparing estimates, consider not only the cost but also
“Items in the estimate”
“Materials and quality of glass, etc.”
“Confirmation of the process”
and make a detailed comparison! If the quality of auxiliary materials is low or if steps are skipped, costs can be reduced, so avoid making decisions based solely on price!
Check if the work is done in-house
There are various construction methods for skylight repair plans, including full replacement, roof overlay (cover method), and partial repairs!
The plan details will vary depending on the actual state of deterioration and the customer’s preferences.
If you choose a contractor that completely outsources skylight repair work, they may lack knowledge and experience, leading to proposals for repairs in the wrong areas or unnecessary work.
There are cases where customers who want to keep costs down are suggested costly projects like skylight replacement, even though partial repairs would suffice.
Additionally, since the contractor will investigate and then request a subcontractor, both time and costs will increase.
By having knowledge and experience and performing the work in-house, we can provide responsible construction while keeping costs down.
Moreover, with contractors that outsource work, one of the disadvantages is that their response to emergencies, such as post-construction troubles, tends to be slow.
