Hello!
I am Yamanaka from Kakeru Koumuten Co., Ltd., a specialist in roofing, exterior painting, and exterior renovations located in Aoba-ku, Yokohama, Kanagawa Prefecture!
This is a case study of an exterior renovation in Hadano City.
There are several types of exterior renovations, but the work we did this time is a roof overlay (cover method) renovation!
This is a roof cover project utilizing fire insurance in Hadano City.
Thanks to the fire insurance, we were able to significantly reduce the burden on our customers.
Thank you very much for entrusting us with this project!
What is the roof overlay (cover method)?
The roof overlay (cover method) involves leaving the current roof almost as it is and placing a new roof on top of it, effectively covering it.
Literally, it is a method of covering a roof with another roof. Therefore, the roof becomes double-layered. Since the roof is laid over, it is also referred to as “overlapping roofing.”
Benefits of the overlay method
By overlaying a “new roof” on the “current roof,” demolition work is almost unnecessary, meaning that very little waste is generated.
This is the biggest feature and leads to various benefits.
The only parts that require demolition and waste disposal are the ridge cap, so compared to full roof replacements, the cost is lower.
In 2004, regulations regarding the concentration of asbestos in raw materials were changed (for details, please visit the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare’s website).
Some building materials used in structures built before 2004 contain asbestos. Asbestos-containing materials are difficult to demolish due to their high environmental impact, and the costs for demolition and waste disposal are also high. The roof overlay method, which generates almost no waste, is ideal for such roofs.
Some may wonder, “Is it safe to live in a building that uses asbestos-containing materials?” but rest assured. As long as there is no destruction or crushing, it will not disperse into the air.
If you are unsure about the type of roof on your home, please feel free to consult us.
Additionally, the construction can be completed in a shorter period than painting or full roof replacement. A shorter construction period means lower labor costs, which in turn makes the cost lower.
This also reduces the psychological anxiety of having to live in a different environment than usual.
When scaffolding is set up, there may be inconveniences such as difficulty entering and exiting or being unable to open windows. Being able to return to your normal life in a short period is a significant advantage.
Our company specializes in roofing work, but the roof overlay method is the most frequently performed type of work we undertake. We are very grateful that we have been continuously engaged in roof overlay projects without interruption.
Ridgeway
The roofing material used is Ridgeway from Asahi Fiberglass.
Ridgeway comes with a 10-year manufacturer warranty.
Since it uses natural stone that is baked onto the surface, it is a roofing material that does not require painting, thus reducing maintenance costs!
The use of fine natural stone on the surface means you won’t be troubled by rain noise.
Additionally, being a lightweight roofing material, it is resistant to earthquakes and has seismic durability.
* After installation, some of the surface decorative stones may fall off for about a week, but there is no issue with quality.
