Here, we will also introduce case studies, benefits, points to note, and costs!

This will definitely be helpful for customers considering exterior wall siding in Yamato City, so please take a look!

The most important thing when considering exterior wall siding is “multiple estimates”!
Let’s obtain at least three estimates from exterior renovation companies that cover the Yamato City area!

Estimates and consultations are free!
Multiple estimates are very welcome!

What is the exterior wall cover method?

We will explain in detail the recommended points and precautions of the exterior wall cover method!

The exterior wall cover method is a construction process that overlays a new exterior wall on top of the existing exterior wall.
It can be applied to various types of exterior walls such as ALC walls, ceramic siding, and mortar walls.
The exterior wall materials used in the exterior wall cover method are generally lightweight and durable metal siding.

Although the costs are higher compared to exterior wall painting, it is a renovation method for exterior walls that has various benefits and is gaining attention year by year.

Why is the exterior wall cover method so popular?

We would like to introduce the “five points” that have received great acclaim for Kakeru Koumuten Co., Ltd.’s exterior wall cover method!

Point 1 Super high durability!!

Metal siding offers an overwhelmingly high expected durability compared to exterior painting.
Galvalume steel, SGL steel, and aluminum are types of metal siding, and with aluminum, you can expect a durability of over 40 years!
Additionally, unlike ceramic siding or mortar exteriors, it does not crack or break, making its sturdiness one of its advantages!
If you use high-durability sealing materials, maintenance will be unnecessary for nearly 30 years!

Point 2 Improved Insulation!!

Cross-section of metal siding

The metal siding used in the exterior cover method has integrated insulation materials.
Moreover, by installing battens before the metal siding construction to create a ventilation layer, the insulation properties are significantly enhanced!
This improvement in insulation is one of the major benefits of metal siding.

Point 3 Comprehensive Warranty for Peace of Mind!!

While many construction companies offer their own warranties for exterior painting, manufacturer warranties are generally not included.
Metal siding comes with solid manufacturer warranties, such as coating and perforation guarantees, providing a high level of reassurance for long-term exterior renovations!

Point 4 Improved Waterproofing!!

With the exterior material being double-layered, it significantly prevents rainwater intrusion, greatly enhancing waterproofing.
Applying waterproof paper before construction further increases the waterproofing effectiveness!

Point 5 Improved Aesthetics!!

Various designs such as wood grain and tile patterns

Metal siding allows for a finish that resembles a brand-new construction, which cannot be achieved with exterior painting.
There are various designs available, ranging from simple styles to tile and wood grain patterns.
You can choose from a variety of designs to match the atmosphere and your preferences for the building!
Major manufacturers include “Aiji Industrial“, “Keimyuu“, “Nichiwa“, and “Asahi Tostem“, each offering a wide range of types and designs of metal siding.
If you find a product of interest in the catalog, you can also request cut samples!

What to be cautious about with metal siding exterior cover work?

Next, we will explain the “three points of caution” when performing exterior cover work with metal siding!

Caution 1 Few contractors can perform the work

There are significantly fewer contractors capable of performing the cover method with metal siding compared to exterior painting contractors.
Many inexperienced contractors exist, leading to a higher occurrence of troubles.
Since there can be a wide variation in estimate costs, to ensure a satisfactory construction, if you are considering the exterior cover method with metal siding, make sure to obtain estimates from three or more companies and carefully review the details!

Caution 2 Prone to dents and scratches

Metal siding can develop dents from impacts when objects hit it.
Additionally, being prone to scratches is one of its disadvantages.
If noticeable scratches occur and are concerning, you can request repairs from a specialized repair contractor!

Caution 3 Long construction period

Exterior cover work is arguably the most extensive type of exterior renovation.
While exterior painting typically takes about 2 to 3 weeks, exterior cover work can often take close to a month.
The long construction period can be a source of stress for residents, making it one of the disadvantages.

Completion Date

Inquiry Details

I am considering a renovation of the exterior walls. I would like to use high-durability metal siding with a solid warranty.
Since this is a comparative estimate, I would like to request a quote for the same metal siding as the estimates from other companies.

Proposal Details
We have proposed a roof overlay method using metal siding as per your request.
You had several preferred metal sidings, so we created separate estimates for each one!

You entrusted us with the “Aiji Industry/SF-Gal Stage Shine” metal siding!
The above siding is made of Galvalume steel with heat-insulating fluorine processing, and it is integrated with insulation material, providing excellent thermal insulation.
You mentioned that you obtained estimates from three companies, and you chose us because our costs were lower and our explanations were thorough!

Price Range
 2,000,000 – 2,100,000 yen
Construction Period
 Approximately 3 weeks
Existing Exterior Material/New Exterior Material

 Existing exterior: ALC
 New exterior: Metal siding (Aiji Industry/SF-Gal Stage Shine)
 Material: Galvalume steel with heat-insulating fluorine processing
 In-house warranty: 10 years
 Manufacturer warranty: 10 years for fading, 10 years for rust, 10 years for perforation
 Furring strips: Made of resin

1. Painting of Accessory Parts

We will first paint the areas not covered by the exterior wall siding (eaves, gables, fascia, etc.). To match the durability of the siding, we recommend using high-durability paints such as inorganic or fluorine types.

2. Removal of Equipment

We will temporarily remove items that obstruct the siding, such as rain gutters and air conditioning ducts.

3. Substrate Adjustment

If there is significant deterioration, we will perform joint sealing and adjust the substrate if the exterior wall is warped.

4. Waterproof Paper Installation (may not be necessary)

We will apply a highly breathable vapor-permeable sheet over the entire exterior wall. If the building is over 25 years old or shows significant deterioration, we recommend installing a waterproof sheet, but if there are no issues, we may proceed without it.

5. Installation of Battens

We will install battens over the entire exterior wall. The battens will be fixed at intervals of 455 mm, and a wider batten will be installed around the windows. If the siding used is horizontal, the battens will be installed vertically, and if the siding is vertical, the battens will be installed horizontally.

6. Metal Work for Fittings

We will process and install corner bases, end caps, and foundation water-cutting metal.

7. Main Construction

Finally, we will cut the siding and fix it with screws from the bottom to the top. Once the siding installation is complete, we will attach joint covers and corners. We use stainless steel screws for fastening the siding materials!

8. Sealing at Various Locations

We will apply sealing to areas that require waterproofing. For sealing materials, we recommend using high-durability sealants like Auton Exceed or SR Seal H100, which can expect nearly 30 years of durability if the colors match.

9. Reinstallation of Equipment

We will reinstall the removed rain gutters and air conditioning ducts. If the rain gutter fittings are of the driven type, we may change them to the screw type.

10. Completion

Finally, we will conduct cleaning and a review, marking the completion of the project.

About the Costs of Exterior Wall Covering Work

This is a guideline table for the estimated costs of exterior wall cover work.
It is an estimate for the cost of performing the exterior wall overlay method for a building area of 30 tsubo.

The cost of the exterior wall cover work will be estimated based on the following calculation.
Exterior wall area (㎡) × Siding unit price + Equipment removal and installation costs + Additional painting costs = Total amount
This will be the total.

Material Expected Durability (Years) Cost
Assuming 30 tsubo (150㎡)
Galvalume Steel 30 to 35 years Including tax
Approximately 2,000,000 yen
(Siding unit price 11,000 yen/m²~)
SGL Steel 35 to 40 years Including tax
Approximately 2,200,000 yen
(Siding unit price 12,500 yen/m²~)
Aluminum 40 years or more Including tax
Approximately 2,500,000 yen
(Siding unit price 14,000 yen/m²~)

The amount will vary depending on the number of attached parts and windows to be painted, as well as the equipment to be removed and reattached.
Please note that this is only a rough estimate, and detailed quotations are completely free, so feel free to contact us.

How to Choose a Siding Contractor

There are fewer contractors that handle exterior wall cover work compared to exterior painting contractors, so it may be difficult to find a reliable contractor, such as “where should I request the work?”
The most important thing when choosing a contractor or obtaining a quote is to always obtain multiple quotes!

For this reason, when requesting exterior wall cover work, let’s confirm the following four points.

1. Check the contents and materials of the estimate

2. Confirm the existence of warranties and aftercare services

3. Obtain multiple quotes from several contractors (at least three companies)

4. Check if the contractor performs the exterior wall cover work in-house

By confirming the above four points, you will be able to choose a trustworthy contractor.

1. Check the contents and materials of the estimate

When obtaining an estimate for exterior wall cover work, let’s check the following items!

・Is the proposed new siding material suitable for your needs?

Check if materials that meet your requirements, such as durability and insulation, are being proposed!
Since there are various types of metal siding, such as cost-effective siding and insulation-focused siding, confirm whether the proposed siding meets your original requirements!

・Is the proposed installation method appropriate?

When performing exterior wall cover work, it is necessary to create a ventilation layer between the existing exterior wall and the new exterior wall material using a method called “ventilation method.”
If you apply it directly without creating a ventilation layer, moisture cannot escape, leading to mold or corrosion, and may result in peeling or lifting of the exterior wall material.
Check whether the proposed work is appropriate!

・Are the quantities and construction details described in detail?

If the estimate states something vague like “exterior wall cover work 1 set,” it will be difficult to understand the construction method and what the costs are for.
Having clear unit prices and quantities for items like base water cuts and edge trims will provide peace of mind and help prevent issues.
If there are items of concern that are not included in the estimate, confirm the reason for their exclusion!

・Check the auxiliary materials to be used!

Check not only the siding itself but also the types of detailed auxiliary materials such as “types of battens“, “siding fasteners“, and “types of waterproof paper“!
For example, siding fasteners are screws, and the overall cost will vary between iron and stainless steel.
While iron may seem cheaper at first glance, stainless steel is resistant to rust and is the recommended fastener.

2. Confirm the existence of warranties and aftercare services

When choosing a contractor for exterior wall cover work, be sure to check for warranties.

Exterior wall cover work is one of the more expensive types of exterior renovations, so in addition to manufacturer warranties, also confirm whether the company offers its own warranty!
If the contractor has a warranty period, they may provide free repairs within that period.

The warranty period varies by contractor and the specifics of the work, but a 5 to 10-year period is typical.

Additionally, some contractors offer after-service separate from warranties, so be sure to check if the contractor you are considering has after-service available.

Kakeru Koumuten Co., Ltd. always includes a warranty with exterior wall cover work.
We also provide after-maintenance, and we send out annual direct mail, so if you wish, you can have inspections every year.

3. Obtain estimates from multiple contractors (at least 3 companies)

When requesting exterior wall cover work, be sure to get estimates from multiple contractors.

Even for the same repair work, the costs may vary between contractors, as well as the warranties and after-services they offer.

Additionally, obtaining multiple estimates makes it easier to negotiate prices.

To request your desired repair contractor at the best possible price, obtaining estimates from multiple contractors is essential.
When comparing estimates, consider not only the costs but also the details of the plans, materials, and ancillary supplies!

4. Confirm whether the company performs exterior wall cover work in-house

There are differences in costs between companies that handle the work in-house and those that outsource it to external companies, and issues such as miscommunication with external contractors are more likely to occur.

Additionally, if problems arise after construction, the response may be slow, or there may be no dealings with the external construction company, leading to potential troubles.
Being able to respond immediately when something happens is one of the reasons why companies that perform the work in-house are recommended!
