“Reasons why Kakeru Koumuten is chosen in Aoba-ku”
For customers living in Aoba-ku who are considering skylight replacements,
this information will definitely be helpful, so please take a look!
To conclude, the most important thing when considering skylight work is
“multiple estimates”!
Let’s obtain estimates from at least three skylight repair companies that cover Aoba-ku!
Reasons why Kakeru Koumuten is chosen for skylight work in Aoba-ku, Yokohama
Regarding why we are entrusted with skylight repairs in Aoba-ku,
one reason is that “Kakeru Koumuten is a roofing company in Yokohama,” but
“our unique approach to skylight replacement work that cannot be imitated by other companies”
has received high praise from many customers.
“cost, quality, and plan” are our absolute strengths,
1. Facilities Specialized in Exterior Renovation
Kakeru Koumuten Co., Ltd. has prepared the following warehouses and material storage to provide low-cost, high-quality exterior renovations such as skylight construction.
We have established five bases centered around Yokohama City for material storage and showrooms.
In-house Scaffolding Materials
We own the scaffolding materials necessary for temporary scaffolding required for skylight construction, allowing us to assemble scaffolding in-house.
By performing scaffolding work with our own scaffolding team instead of outsourcing, we can cut costs for scaffolding work and respond quickly in emergencies.
We have scaffolding materials for approximately 50 single-family homes!
Storage of Materials in Our Large Warehouse
We store materials used for exterior renovations.
By ordering a large quantity of materials at once, we can purchase materials at a lower cost!
Additionally, we always have stock available, allowing us to respond quickly in emergencies!
In-house Waste Separation
During skylight construction, various waste materials such as roofing materials, glass, and wood are generated.
While most contractors dispose of them all together, we can significantly cut waste disposal costs by separating and recycling the waste materials.
Showroom Dedicated to Exterior Renovations
In our showroom, not only can you have meetings, but you can also
directly check the actual roofing materials and colors.
You can also simulate exterior painting colors and verify heat insulation performance using our heat insulation testing equipment!
2. Complete in-house construction for skylight installation
One of Kakeru Koumuten’s major strengths is our complete in-house construction.
From inquiries to project completion, everything is handled by Kakeru Koumuten in a consistent manner, allowing us to keep costs down while providing high-quality skylight installation.
Additionally, one representative will handle everything from the estimate to project completion.
Since the person in charge does not change, whether it’s sales or construction management, smooth communication is possible.
We can handle everything from temporary scaffolding installation to exterior painting, roofing work, and exterior cover work completely in-house!
Since skylight installation involves dismantling or peeling off roofing materials, it can significantly reduce costs when done simultaneously with roof replacement or cover work!
3. Various permits obtained and skilled workers on staff
We have obtained permits for construction work and industrial waste collection and transportation!
We have nationally certified sheet metal workers and painting technicians on staff, and we are confident in our construction techniques.
We are also capable of handling large-scale roofing projects such as those for factories!
We have qualified asbestos supervisors and asbestos surveyors on staff, so we can handle asbestos-containing roofing materials and conduct preliminary surveys.
4. Warranty and Aftercare
The skylight replacement work comes with a warranty!
Aftercare is available every year, and we send out notification DM each year.
5. Flexible and Prompt Response
Our company is equipped to handle various troubles and situations related to skylights.
Even if you cannot access the roof at high places, we can respond by utilizing drones!
During leak investigations, we can also conduct surveys using a thermal imaging camera, which helps in identifying the cause of leaks!
We will respond according to your wishes.
We also accept emergency repairs for sudden leaks from skylights!
6. Human Resource Development
To enhance our skills, we create various roof models and conduct practical training.
Since different processing and techniques are required depending on the site, we regularly provide skill enhancement education to ensure all staff can respond effectively.
Possible Subsidies and Grants for Skylight Construction in Aoba-ku, Yokohama
In Aoba-ku, Yokohama, there are potential subsidies available when carrying out skylight construction!
For details, please contact our company or your local government!
Kanagawa Prefecture Existing Housing Energy Efficiency Renovation Subsidy
Eligible Applicants
The eligible applicants for this subsidy are owners of existing homes in Kanagawa Prefecture who reside in those homes on a daily basis. The eligible properties must be residences where the owner themselves lives, regardless of whether they are single-family homes or apartments.
Eligible Construction and Conditions
To receive the subsidy, the following requirements must be met. First, it is necessary to conduct energy efficiency renovation work using products such as windows, glass, and insulation materials that meet the insulation performance standards specified by the national government, targeting existing homes within the prefecture. Additionally, the residence must ensure seismic performance, and a pre-application must be submitted before starting the work, with the condition that construction begins only after receiving the grant decision. Eligible construction includes insulation renovations for windows, floors, walls, and ceilings.
Subsidy Amount
The maximum amount for this subsidy is up to 200,000 yen per residence. This is the total subsidy granted when eligible energy efficiency renovation work is carried out, and no more than this amount can be received.
Subsidy Rate
The burden ratio for the subsidy is **one-third (approximately 33%) of the eligible construction costs**. However, even if the calculated amount based on the subsidy rate exceeds the maximum of 200,000 yen, the amount granted will be limited to “up to the maximum amount.”

Child-Rearing Green Housing Support Project
Eligible Applicants
This program targets child-rearing households (households with children under 18) and young couple households, focusing on those who are building or purchasing new homes with high energy efficiency performance, or renovating existing homes for energy efficiency. For new constructions, the builder or purchaser is eligible, while for renovations, the contractor placing the order is eligible for the subsidy.
Requirements
For new homes, it is necessary to meet high energy efficiency performance standards set by the government, such as ZEH standards or higher. For renovations, the work must improve the home’s energy efficiency performance through insulation renovations or the introduction of energy-efficient equipment. In both cases, it is required to contract with registered businesses and carry out the work within the specified period.
Subsidy Upper Limit
For new constructions, the maximum subsidy per unit is between 400,000 yen and 1,600,000 yen, depending on the performance classification of the house. For renovations, the upper limit is between 400,000 yen and 600,000 yen per unit, depending on the scope of work. In either case, even if multiple works are carried out, the subsidy cannot exceed this upper limit.
Subsidy Rate
This program does not provide a subsidy based on a certain percentage of the construction costs; instead, it offers a predetermined “fixed subsidy” based on the type of work and performance classification. Therefore, in effect, the government covers part of the construction costs.
For more details, please click here!
Advanced Window Renovation Project
Eligible Participants
Homeowners of existing houses (single-family homes and apartment buildings) who are conducting insulation renovation work on windows and openings are eligible. The actual subsidy application process is carried out by registered “window renovation contractors” recognized by the government, and the granted subsidies are fully refunded to homeowners through discounts on construction costs.
Requirements
Eligible renovations include the installation of interior windows, replacement of exterior windows, and glass replacements aimed at improving insulation performance in existing homes. It is necessary to use products that meet the insulation performance standards set by the government and to enter into a construction contract with a registered window renovation contractor. Additionally, the total subsidy amount must be 50,000 yen or more, and the work must commence and be completed within the specified construction period.
Subsidy Upper Limit
The upper limit for subsidies is 2,000,000 yen per unit. Even if multiple windows are renovated, the total subsidy received for the same house will not exceed this upper limit.
Subsidy Rate
The subsidy rate is approximately half of the construction costs. The actual subsidy amount is set as a fixed rate based on the type of window (interior, exterior, glass), size, and insulation performance classification, resulting in a total that is approximately 50% of the construction costs.

Customer Feedback
Advantages and Disadvantages of Skylights
Advantages of Skylights
High Light Transmission
First, the advantage of skylights is their high light transmission.
When natural light enters the room abundantly, it creates a sense of openness, making you feel more comfortable.
Energy Savings
This also contributes to high light transmission, allowing you to save on electricity costs due to the presence of natural light. As a result, you will use less electricity during the day, making it suitable for energy conservation.
Good Ventilation
By installing a skylight, you can open and close it, which improves ventilation.
Warm air rises, enhancing airflow as well.
High Privacy
In areas where houses are closely packed together, large windows can expose the interior of your home. However, with skylights, since they are installed on the roof, your privacy is maintained.
Disadvantages of Skylights
Risk of Leaks
The biggest concern when installing a skylight is the risk of leaks. Since it involves opening up the roof for installation, there is a certain level of risk for leaks.
However, with proper installation and regular maintenance, the current skylights can minimize this risk significantly.
Regular Maintenance Required
Skylights need maintenance approximately every 5 to 10 years to prevent leaks. While maintenance may seem bothersome, it is recommended to do it regularly to avoid damage to the interior and wooden parts caused by leaks.
Noise from Rain
Since skylights are installed directly on the roof, the sound of raindrops hitting the glass can easily be transmitted indoors, which is a disadvantage. This sound can be particularly noticeable during heavy rain or storms.
However, this is not something that is strongly felt with all skylights. By choosing double-glazed glass or products with high sound insulation, the noise from rain can be reduced.

By properly sealing against rain and performing regular maintenance, you can prevent leaks.
7. Cleaning
This concludes the work.
How to Choose a Skylight Contractor
There are many skylight contractors in Yokohama, and you may be unsure which one to choose.
Therefore, when requesting skylight replacement work or leak repairs, let’s check the following 5 points.
● Have extensive experience in skylight work
● Confirm if they can also handle roof work
● Check for warranties and aftercare services
● Obtain estimates from multiple contractors (at least 3 companies)
● Confirm if they perform roof renovations in-house
By checking the above 5 points, you will be able to choose a reliable contractor.
Have Extensive Experience in Skylight Work
Skylight contractors often have websites where they showcase their work history.
Additionally, if they provide detailed explanations of repair work with photos, it can give you peace of mind as a reference when you request repairs.
If you are concerned about whether the contractor you are about to hire will respond adequately, choose one with extensive repair experience.
It is also effective to refer to reviews on Google and review sites when looking for skylight contractors!
If there are many negative reviews or no reviews at all, it may be wise to refrain from requesting their services.
Kakeru Koumuten Co., Ltd. specializes in exterior work, so we receive many requests for skylight replacement work.
Confirm if They Can Handle Roof Work
Since skylights are installed on roofs, roof work is often involved as well.
If the contractor lacks knowledge about roofs or cannot handle roof work, it may lead to issues such as leaks after construction or high construction costs.
Moreover, since skylight replacement or removal may require partial dismantling of the roof and restoration, performing roof overlay work or re-roofing simultaneously can significantly reduce costs!
Our company specializes in roofing work, so we can propose the optimal plan tailored to your needs for roofing work associated with skylight installation.
Check for warranties and aftercare services
When choosing a skylight contractor, make sure to check for warranties.
If a leak occurs after the skylight installation, having a leak warranty from the contractor ensures that repairs can be made at no cost, providing peace of mind!
Additionally, companies that offer warranty periods demonstrate confidence in their work, making it a key criterion for selecting a contractor!
Warranty periods vary by contractor and the nature of the work, but typically range from 1 to 10 years.
Emergency repairs or partial fixes often do not come with a leak warranty.
Moreover, some contractors offer aftercare services in addition to warranties, so be sure to check if the contractor you are considering has warranties and aftercare services.
Kakeru Koumuten Co., Ltd. sends out annual DM for aftercare maintenance, allowing for yearly inspections.
We also provide free assistance for simple repairs like partial sealing.
Obtain estimates from multiple contractors (at least 3)
When requesting skylight installation, make sure to obtain estimates from multiple contractors.
Even for the same repair or replacement work, repair costs can vary between contractors, as well as warranties and aftercare services.
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 just the cost, but also
“Items in the estimate”
“Materials and quality, such as glass”
“Confirmation of the process”
and make a detailed comparison! If the quality of auxiliary materials is low or if processes are skipped, costs can be reduced, so avoid making decisions based solely on price!
Check if the contractor performs the work in-house
There are various construction methods for skylight repair plans, including full replacement, roof overlay (cover method), and partial repairs!
The content of the plan will change depending on the actual state of deterioration and the customer’s wishes.
If you choose a contractor that completely outsources skylight repair work, they may lack knowledge and experience, leading to proposals for repairs in the wrong areas or unnecessary work.
Customers who want to keep costs down may be suggested to replace the skylight, which can be expensive, even though a partial repair would suffice.
Additionally, since they need to investigate and then request a subcontractor, both time and costs will increase.
By having knowledge and experience and performing the work in-house, we can provide responsible construction while keeping costs down.
Moreover, with contractors that outsource work, one of the disadvantages is that their response to emergencies, such as post-construction troubles, tends to be slow.
