We have approximately enough scaffolding materials for 50 single-family homes!

Storage of Materials in Our Large In-house Warehouse

 
We store roofing materials and waterproofing components.
By ordering a large quantity of materials at once, we canprocure materials at a lower cost!
Additionally, we always have waterproofing components in stock, allowing us torespond quickly to emergency waterproofing work!

In-house waste separation

In waterproofing work, various waste materials are generated.
Most contractors dispose of them all together, but by sorting and recycling waste materials, significant cost reductions in waste disposal can be achieved.

In our showroom, not only can you have meetings, but you can also
directly check the actual structure and colors.

2.Complete In-House Construction

One of Kakeru Koumuten’s major strengths is complete in-house construction.

Inquiry Details
We have received the following inquiries from our customer:
・There are wrinkles and bulges in the waterproof sheet on the roof, so we are worried about leaks.
・Please provide an estimate for a complete waterproof renovation, not just partial repairs or a top coat.
・I learned that urethane waterproofing has high waterproofing properties, so I would like an estimate for urethane waterproofing.
・Since this is my first waterproofing project, I would like to compare estimates.

Our Proposal

Since you expressed a desire to renovate using a long-lasting method rather than protective agents like top coats, we proposed a complete “urethane waterproofing project” for the roof.

If urethane waterproofing is applied using a direct adhesion method, air rising from the building can cause bulges in the waterproof layer, so we proposed the “urethane waterproofing ventilation buffer method.”

The ventilation buffer method involves applying a ventilation buffer sheet across the entire area before installing the urethane waterproofing.
By applying the ventilation buffer sheet first, the air rising from the building is controlled by the ventilation sheet and expelled through the “ventilation pipe.”

This method can prevent the most common issue in waterproofing, which is bulging of the waterproof layer!

After explaining the materials and methods, you entrusted us with the project among the four estimates you received!

Timing for Waterproofing Work

Leaks Have Already Occurred

If leaks have already occurred, it is necessary to address the issue promptly before the damage spreads.
If left unattended, it can adversely affect the interior and underlying structures, so it is essential to stop the leaks quickly.

Bulging or Cracking of the Waterproof Layer

If the waterproof area is cracked, it can lead to rainwater intrusion.
If the waterproof layer is bulging, it indicates that moisture is accumulating within the layer.
Bulging can lead to cracks, which can result in leaks, so early detection and action are necessary.

Moss or Mold Growth

Moss or mold can develop due to the accumulation of moisture or rainwater.
This can be caused by poor drainage or sinking of the waterproof layer due to aging.

Exceeding the Durability Period

Generally, the durability period for waterproofing work is 10 to 20 years.
Of course, the durability period can vary depending on the construction method and materials, but for some types of waterproofing, it is recommended to apply only the surface protective agent (top coat) approximately every 8 years (such as urethane waterproofing or FRP waterproofing).
We recommend regular inspections starting from 5 years after construction.

Understanding the types of waterproofing and performing appropriate maintenance is essential.
If you are unsure about the type of waterproofing, please send us a photo via email or LINE, and we will assess it for you!

Types of Waterproofing Work

1. Urethane Waterproofing

Urethane waterproofing is a method where liquid polyurethane resin is applied in layers to the waterproofing surface.
Since it is liquid before curing, it can be applied to complex shapes, and unlike sheet waterproofing, it can be installed without seams, which is a significant advantage.
It can be widely applied to balconies, rooftops, and more.
For more details on the advantages, disadvantages, and maintenance methods of urethane waterproofing, please refer to the article below.

2. Rubber Sheet Waterproofing

Rubber sheet waterproofing involves attaching synthetic rubber sheets to the surface to prevent water intrusion.
This type of waterproofing is commonly used on large areas such as rooftops.
Compared to urethane waterproofing, it has the advantage of faster installation since there is no waiting for drying, but it is not suitable for complex surfaces.
For more details on the advantages, disadvantages, and maintenance methods of rubber sheet waterproofing, please refer to the article below.

3. PVC Sheet Waterproofing

PVC sheet waterproofing is a waterproof sheet made of polyvinyl chloride, and like rubber sheet waterproofing, it is applied to the surface to prevent water intrusion.
Similar to rubber sheets, it is not suitable for complex shapes. Although the cost is higher than rubber sheets and urethane waterproofing, its long durability is a significant advantage.
For more details on the advantages, disadvantages, and maintenance methods of PVC sheet waterproofing, please refer to the article below.

4. Long Sheet Waterproofing

Long sheet waterproofing, officially known as “anti-slip vinyl floor sheet,” is commonly applied in shared areas and staircases of apartments where people walk.
As the name suggests, it is slip-resistant and has high durability and abrasion resistance, making it suitable for walking areas.
Additionally, it comes in various designs, excelling in aesthetic appeal.
However, it tends to be more expensive, and since it does not overlap seams like rubber sheets or PVC sheets, it may give a slightly lower impression of waterproofing performance.
It is rarely used in areas like the rooftops of apartments where people do not frequently enter.
For more details on the advantages, disadvantages, and maintenance methods of long sheet waterproofing, please refer to the article below.

5. FRP Waterproofing

FRP waterproofing involves creating a waterproof layer by solidifying glass mat with epoxy resin to prevent rainwater intrusion.
It is commonly applied in single-family home balconies, with an overwhelmingly short construction period, often completed in as little as one day.
Due to its lightweight and low cost, it is estimated that about 80% of single-family home balconies use FRP waterproofing.
However, it is not suitable for installation on uneven surfaces, making it less appropriate for rooftop applications.
For more details on the advantages, disadvantages, and maintenance methods of FRP waterproofing, please refer to the article below.

6. Asphalt Waterproofing

Asphalt waterproofing is a waterproof sheet that has asphalt permeated into synthetic fiber non-woven fabric.
The waterproofing shown in the photo is a method where asphalt waterproofing is pressed down with cinder concrete.
This type of waterproofing is used in buildings with large areas such as rooftops of schools and commercial facilities.
There are various methods of asphalt waterproofing, each with its own advantages and disadvantages, but a significant advantage is its high durability.

For more details on the advantages, disadvantages, and maintenance methods of asphalt waterproofing, please refer to the article below.

How to Choose a Waterproofing Contractor

There are many waterproofing contractors available in Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo. Among the numerous contractors, I believe many people feel “I don’t know who to ask…”. Choosing the right contractor can be challenging at first, so I will explain 5 points to keep in mind when requesting waterproofing work.

● Have extensive experience in waterproofing work

● Confirm the presence of aftercare and warranty

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

● Check if they perform waterproofing work in-house

● Carefully review the details of the waterproofing estimate, including processes and materials used

By confirming the above 5 points, you will be able to choose a reliable contractor.

Check if they have extensive experience in waterproofing work

About 10-20% of waterproofing work troubles are caused by construction defects during the installation.
To prevent troubles, it is important to hire a contractor who is experienced and reliable!
You need to refer to the contractor’s website for their past work and reviews to make a judgment.
There are also contractors who showcase their achievements on social media platforms like Instagram, so checking those can be effective!
It is also effective to look at waterproofing companies using review sites for reference!
The particularly recommended review site is “Google”.
Since contractors cannot delete low ratings on their own, it provides trustworthy reviews.
If there are many negative reviews or no reviews at all, it may be wise to refrain from making a request.

Check if there is aftercare maintenance and construction warranty

In case any construction defects or issues occur after the work is completed, let’s confirm whether they provide a construction warranty!
Contractors who offer a warranty are usually confident in their work, making them more trustworthy companies!

If waterproofing work is done, make sure to have photos taken of hidden areas and check them!
Check for leaks during rainy weather after the waterproofing work, and if there are any issues, contact the contractor immediately as it will facilitate smooth communication shortly after the work is completed!

Also, to ensure early detection of any issues that may arise, confirm whether they will conduct thorough aftercare maintenance!
Since non-specialized contractors may not notice signs of problems or troubles, having a specialized contractor perform regular aftercare maintenance can help prevent troubles before they occur!

Our company sends out aftercare maintenance DM every year, so if desired, annual aftercare maintenance can be arranged!

Obtain estimates from multiple contractors (at least three)

When requesting waterproofing work, be sure to obtain estimates from multiple contractors.
We recommend obtaining estimates from at least three companies.

Even for the same waterproofing work, costs may vary between contractors, and warranties and after-services may differ as well.

Additionally, obtaining multiple estimates makes it easier to negotiate prices. To request at the lowest possible cost, it is essential to get estimates from several contractors.
When comparing estimates, check not only the costs but also the “types of materials used” and “construction methods,” and compare the details!

Check if they perform waterproofing work in-house

Let’s confirm whether we carry out waterproofing work in-house!
If a sales company investigates and then requests a subcontractor, it can take more time and incur additional costs.
Moreover, there may be cases where the customer’s requests are not fully communicated to the subcontractor, leading to potential troubles.
By having everything from sales to construction handled by one company, we can provide responsible waterproofing work that is both quick and cost-effective. Kakeru Koumuten Co., Ltd. conducts everything from on-site surveys to actual construction in-house!

Additionally, in the unlikely event of a leak or trouble, a company that employs its own craftsmen can respond to and resolve issues quickly!

Carefully check the details of the waterproofing estimate, process, and materials used

Even for the same waterproofing work, there are various types such as “methods,” “materials,” and “processes,” and it is necessary to use the optimal method and materials based on the construction location and existing substrate.

For example, even with the same urethane waterproofing, there are different types of processes such as “adhesion method” and “ventilation buffer method,” and there are various types of urethane waterproofing materials, including “high-strength specifications,” “heat-insulating specifications,” and “anti-slip specifications.” Therefore, it is essential to confirm whether the construction content is appropriate for the location!

It is important not to judge solely based on cost, but to carefully check whether “the method is appropriate for the substrate?” and “are the materials suitable?”

Therefore, if the materials used are only “urethane waterproofing materials,” confirm the product name and check what kind of materials they are!
