For customers living in Taito-ku, Tokyo, who are considering skylight replacement,
this information will definitely be helpful, so please take a look!
To conclude, the most important thing when considering skylight construction is
“multiple estimates”!
Let’s obtain estimates from at least three companies that handle skylight repairs in Taito-ku, Tokyo!
Reasons why Kakeru Koumuten is chosen for skylight construction in Taito-ku, Tokyo
The reasons why we can be entrusted with skylight repairs in Taito-ku, Tokyo,
include the fact that “Kakeru Koumuten is a roofing company in Tokyo,”
but also our“efforts in skylight replacement construction that cannot be imitated by other companies”
, which have received high praise from many customers.
“cost, quality, and plans” are our absolute strengths,
1. Equipment Specialized in Exterior Renovation
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 five bases 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 set up 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 approximately enough scaffolding materials for 50 single-family homes!
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 can purchase materials at a lower cost!
Additionally, we always have stock available, allowing us to respond 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, we can significantly cut waste disposal costs by separating and recycling the waste materials.
Showroom Dedicated to Exterior Renovations
In our showroom, not only can you have meetings, but you can also
directly check the actual roofing materials and colors.
You can also perform color simulations for exterior painting and check heat insulation properties using a heat insulation testing machine!
2. Complete In-House Construction for Skylight Installation
One of Kakeru Koumuten’s major strengths is our complete in-house construction.
From inquiry to project completion, everything is handled by Kakeru Koumuten in a consistent manner, allowing us to keep costs down while providing high-quality skylight installations.
Additionally, one representative will handle everything from the estimate to project completion.
Since the person in charge does not change, whether it be sales or construction management, smooth communication is possible.
We can fully handle everything from temporary scaffolding setup to exterior painting, roofing work, and exterior cover work with our in-house construction!
Since skylight installation involves dismantling or removing roofing materials, it can be significantly more cost-effective to carry it out simultaneously with roofing replacement or cover work!
3. Various Permits Obtained & Skilled Workers on Staff
We have obtained construction industry licenses and industrial waste collection and transportation permits!
We have national certified sheet metal workers and painting technicians on staff, and we are confident in our construction techniques.
We are also capable of handling large-scale roofing projects, such as those for factories!
We have qualified asbestos supervisors and asbestos surveyors on staff, so we can handle asbestos-containing roofing materials and conduct preliminary surveys.
4. Warranty and Aftercare
The skylight replacement work comes with a warranty! Aftercare is available every year, and we will send out a notification DM each year.
5. Flexible and Prompt Response
Our company is equipped to handle various troubles and situations related to skylights.
If you cannot access the roof at high places, we can utilize a drone to assist!
During leak investigations, we can also use a thermal imaging camera, which helps in identifying the cause of leaks!
We will respond according to your wishes.
We also accept emergency repairs for sudden leaks from skylights!
6. Human Resource Development
We are creating various roof models to enhance our skills and conducting practical training.
Since different sites require various processing and techniques, we regularly conduct skill improvement training to ensure all staff can respond effectively.
Subsidies and Grants That May Be Applicable for Skylight Construction in Taito-ku, Tokyo補助金、助成金
In Taito-ku, Tokyo, there are potential subsidies available when carrying out 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, or energy-saving renovations of existing homes. For new construction, the builder or purchaser is eligible, while for renovations, the contractor is the eligible party.
Requirements
For new homes, it is necessary to meet high energy efficiency standards set by the government, such as exceeding ZEH levels. 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 required to contract with a registered business and complete the work within the specified period.
Maximum Subsidy Amount
For new construction, the maximum subsidy per unit ranges from 400,000 yen to 1,600,000 yen depending on the performance category of the home, while for renovations, the maximum subsidy per unit ranges from 400,000 yen to 600,000 yen based on the content of the work. In either case, even if multiple works are carried out, the total subsidy cannot exceed these maximum amounts.
Subsidy Rate
This program does not provide a subsidy based on a certain percentage of the construction cost; instead, a predetermined “fixed subsidy” is provided 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 carrying out 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 the homeowners through discounts on construction costs.
Requirements
Eligible works include window renovation projects 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 commence 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 received for the same residence will be limited to this maximum amount.
Subsidy Rate
The subsidy rate is approximately equivalent to half of the construction costs. 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 costs.

Customer Feedback
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 is related to their high light transmission, as having natural light allows you to save on electricity costs. Since you will need to turn on the lights less during the day, it is conducive to energy savings.
Good Ventilation
By installing a skylight, you can open and close it, which improves ventilation.
Warm air rises, allowing for better airflow.
High Privacy
In areas with closely spaced houses, installing large windows can make the interior visible. In such cases, skylights, being installed on the roof, help maintain privacy.
Disadvantages of Skylights
Risk of Leaks
The biggest concern when installing a skylight is the risk of leaks. Since it involves opening up the roof, there is always some risk of water leakage.
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. This noise can be particularly noticeable during heavy rain or storms.
However, this is not strongly felt with all skylights. By choosing double-glazed glass or high soundproof products, the sound of rain can be reduced.

Skylight Glass Replacement Work – Construction Procedure
1. Remove the materials around the skylight
First, we will remove the cover materials and securing materials around the skylight. These materials will be reused, so we will handle them carefully during removal.
2. Preparation
We will prepare the area around the skylight indoors.
This preparation is done 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. Just like during removal, we will be careful to avoid breaking the glass during installation.
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 being used, as improper installation could lead to leaks. We will check that the fittings are securely fastened.
Waterproofing treatment will be applied around the frame using sealant.
How to Choose a Skylight Contractor
There are many skylight contractors in Tokyo, and you may be unsure which one to choose.
Therefore, when requesting skylight replacement work or leak repairs, it is important to check the following 5 points.
● 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)
● Confirm if they perform roof renovations in-house
By checking these 5 points, you will be able to choose a reliable contractor.
Extensive experience in skylight work
Skylight contractors often have websites showcasing their work experience.
Additionally, if they provide detailed explanations of repair work with photos, it can give you peace of mind as a reference when you request repairs.
If you are concerned about whether the contractor you are considering will respond adequately, choose one with extensive repair experience.
It is also effective to refer to reviews on Google and review sites when looking for skylight contractors!
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, and 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 as well.
If the contractor lacks knowledge about roofs or cannot handle roofing work, it could lead to leaks after installation or result in high construction costs, leading to potential troubles.
Furthermore, since skylight replacement or removal may require partial dismantling of the roof and restoration, performing roof overlay work or re-roofing simultaneously 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 Warranty and After-Service Availability
When choosing a skylight contractor, make sure to check for warranty availability.
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 a warranty 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 fixes often do not come with a leak warranty.
Moreover, some contractors offer after-service in addition to warranties, so be sure to check if the contractor you are considering has warranties and after-service.
Kakeru Koumuten Co., Ltd. sends out annual DM for after-service, allowing for yearly inspections.
We provide free support for simple repairs like partial sealing.
Obtain Estimates from Multiple Contractors (at least 3)
When requesting skylight work, make sure to obtain estimates from multiple contractors.
Even for the same repair or replacement work, costs and warranty or after-service offerings can vary between contractors.
Additionally, obtaining multiple estimates makes it easier to negotiate prices.
To request your desired contractor at the best price, obtaining estimates from multiple contractors is essential.
When comparing estimates, consider not just the costs, but also
“Items in the estimate”
“Materials and quality of glass, etc.”
“Confirmation of the process”
and make your judgment carefully! If the quality of auxiliary materials is low or if processes 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 wishes.
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 construction.
There are cases where customers who want to keep costs down are suggested costly work like skylight replacement, even though partial repairs would suffice.
Additionally, since the investigation is followed by requesting a subcontractor, both time and costs can increase unnecessarily.
By having the knowledge and experience to perform 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 response times can be slow in case of post-construction troubles or emergencies.
