Roof Overlay Construction Procedure

1. Dismantling Existing Ridge and Snow Stops

First, we will dismantle unnecessary parts (ridge flashing) for the overlay method! 

The lifespan of wooden purlins is approximately 10 to 15 years. Once the lifespan is exceeded, it can lead to corrosion and discoloration, resulting in the ridge flashing coming loose or being blown away.

2. Installing Roofing (Waterproof Sheet)

Next, we will apply the waterproof sheet! The roofing material used is Tajima Roofing / Tadi Self Cover, which is highly durable and waterproof!

Tadi Self Cover is the ideal roofing sheet for covering fragile slates such as non-asbestos roofing materials. As a secondary waterproofing measure, if the roofing is properly installed, it will generally not leak. We will ensure it is firmly applied so that it does not get blown away by the wind.

Since there are various durability years and features for roofing sheets, it is important to choose a roofing sheet that matches the durability years of the new roof and the roof slope!

3. Accessory Processing (Karakusa and Keraba)

Before the main body construction of the roof, we will process and install accessories such as Karakusa and Keraba. The accessories used are the genuine accessories from Galtect, made of SGL steel plate!

The metal fittings at the ridge are our company’s original integrated waste board ridge base. The durability is about 30 years, making it a highly wind-resistant ridge base.

4. Main Body Construction (Aiji Industrial / Super Galtect)

After processing the accessories, we will install the Galtect main body up to the ridge! The fasteners used for the Galtect main body are genuine stainless steel renovation screws from Aiji Industrial!

Once the roof is completed up to the ridge, we will install the necessary materials to secure the ridge board known as kanban. We offer three types of kanban: cedar, resin, and Galvalume steel, and this time we used Galvalume steel!

Galvalume steel is expected to have three times the durability compared to cedar! Unlike resin and cedar, it does not crack, providing peace of mind!

Our original integrated waste board made of Galvalume steel for the ridge base is highly durable, has strong fixing power, and excellent wind resistance!

Even if rainwater enters from the ridge, it has a mechanism to discharge rainwater to the outside, demonstrating high waterproofing performance!

It is perfect for the Super Galtect ridge base!

5. Processing of Ridge Cap and Sealing at Various Locations

We will process and install the ridge cap. To enhance waterproofing, we will install a face plate on the inside of the ridge! Inside the joints, we will securely apply Auto Chemical Industry / Auton Exceed (with a durability of about 30 years).

The screws used for fixing are stainless steel with waterproof packing that is resistant to rust!

Unlike nails, screws with packing are less likely to come loose
and securely fix the ridge cap to the kanban!

 

Although it is not visible after construction,
installing a face plate on the inside of the ridge cap
enhances waterproofing!
We will thoroughly protect the ridge, which is a critical point of the roof.

6. Cleaning

After the

roof construction, we will clean up any debris that has fallen onto the balcony or rain gutters. We will thoroughly remove nails and metal scraps, as they can lead to injuries.

Additionally, we will wipe away any footprints left on the roof to ensure it looks clean.

About Roofing Materials

The roofing material used is Ai-Gi Kogyo / Super Galtect. Super Galtect comes with a 15-year paint warranty and a 25-year hole warranty from the manufacturer, along with a 10-year construction warranty from our company! Additionally, it is made of SGL steel, which is resistant to rust.

The insulation material is tightly applied from edge to edge of the roofing material, creating a metal sheet that integrates the steel plate and insulation. During installation, insulation is applied even to the parts where the roofing materials overlap, and the surface is coated with a high heat-reflective paint, allowing for a cool summer and a warm winter.

Moreover, it also has soundproofing properties, reducing the sound of rain. Being lighter than other roofing materials, it minimizes the sway during earthquakes, providing earthquake resistance as well.

It excels in finish, durability, insulation, soundproofing, and wind resistance, and Super Galtect from Ai-Gi Kogyo is the most frequently used in our construction achievements and is receiving significant attention!
