Construction Data for Atsugi City, Kanagawa Prefecture

Joint Replacement Construction Steps

1. Removal of Existing Sealing Material

We will remove the existing sealing material using a cutter or similar tool.
This is referred to as sealing, caulking, or jointing. It is a crucial area that can easily lead to water leaks and cause cracking or lifting of the siding. Cracks or peeling are signs of deterioration!

2. Applying Masking Tape

Check the position to apply the tape and carefully attach it to avoid embedding into the surface.

3. Applying Primer

Apply primer with a brush or similar tool, ensuring there are no missed spots.

4. Filling the Sealing Material

Next, we will apply the sealing. The sealing material used this time is SR Seal H100! SR Seal H100 is a modified silicone-based sealing material that offers high durability and weather resistance. Its durability is approximately 30 years.

5. Finishing with a Trowel

Use a trowel that matches the joint width to press firmly and finish smoothly.

6. Removal of Masking Tape

Remove the masking tape promptly after finishing.

Exterior Wall Painting Construction Procedure

1. High-Pressure Washing

First, we thoroughly remove dirt and moss from the exterior walls with high-pressure washing! If dirt remains, it can affect the adhesion and durability of the paint, so we wash carefully.
We also provided a complimentary cleaning of the ground and inside the rain gutters!

2. Surface Preparation

After the high-pressure washing is complete, we assess the deterioration of the exterior walls and perform surface preparation, such as crack repairs.

3. Masking

Next, we use masking tape, blue sheets, and polymer sheeting to protect areas that will not be painted, such as windows, frames, and floors. This is a very important task in the painting process! If masking is neglected, gaps can form, allowing paint to seep in or resulting in uneven lines.

4. Primer Application

After completing the high-pressure washing and surface preparation, we apply the first coat of paint, which is the primer. This paint ensures that the middle and top coats adhere well to the surface. A proper primer application greatly impacts durability and finish quality!

5. Middle Coat (Heat-Reflective Paint)

Next is the middle coat. This is a crucial step to enhance the performance of the paint, achieve a beautiful finish, and eliminate unevenness!

6. Top Coat (Heat-Reflective Paint)

Next is the top coat. This will be the finishing touch for the exterior wall painting. We will be mindful to ensure there are no uneven spots or missed areas, resulting in a beautiful finish! The paint used is Astec Paint‘s Fluorine REVO1000-IR. The manufacturer’s expected durability is about 16 to 20 years. Astec Paint’s heat-insulating paint holds the NO.1 share among heat-insulating paints! It offers high cost performance and excellent heat insulation, making it a very popular choice at our company!

7. Painting of Auxiliary Parts (Eaves, Soffits, Rain Gutters, Fascias, Shutter Boxes)

Eaves

Eaves are less exposed to sunlight and are less prone to deterioration; however, due to poor sunlight exposure, they tend to be more susceptible to moss and mold. Therefore, we use paint with high anti-mold and moisture-permeable properties for the eaves.
The paint used is Nippon Paint/Ken Ace G2.

Rain Gutters

Shutter Box

For the attached parts, after finishing the surface preparation such as scraping, for metal parts, we apply a primer with rust prevention, followed by an intermediate coat with Yumelock, and then a top coat. We ensure to paint every detail thoroughly!

The Necessity of Exterior Wall Painting and Maintenance Schedule

◇ The Necessity and Purpose of Exterior Wall Painting

The role of exterior wall painting is primarily to protect the walls. Like the roof, the exterior walls are directly affected by rain, wind, and ultraviolet rays. Regular exterior wall painting helps prevent these damages and plays a role in extending the lifespan of the house.

Additionally, making the house look beautiful is also a role of exterior wall painting. The exterior walls determine the first impression of the house, so maintaining their beauty enhances the comfort of the residents and the evaluation from the surroundings.

If you want to extend the lifespan of your house and maintain its aesthetics, exterior wall painting is necessary.

◇ Maintenance Schedule for Exterior Wall Painting

Generally, the lifespan of exterior wall painting is said to be about 7 to 10 years. However, like the roof, it varies depending on the type of paint used, the painting method, and climate conditions. Inspections are necessary 3 to 5 years after the first painting to check for signs of deterioration such as fading, peeling, and cracks.

By regularly checking the condition of the exterior walls and performing maintenance as needed, you can protect your valuable home while maintaining its aesthetics.

Conclusion

That concludes our track record of exterior wall painting and sealing work in Atsugi City!

This time, we used paint that enhances the thermal insulation of the exterior walls, and I believe you will feel the effects during the summer!
The most important part of exterior wall siding is the joint sealing material.
If the joint sealing is damaged, it can lead to leaks and internal wood rot, as well as warping and cracking of the siding material.
Even if exterior wall painting is difficult due to cost, I recommend at least performing emergency repairs on the joint sealing maintenance.
