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 a roof renovation project in Hodogaya-ku, Yokohama, Kanagawa Prefecture.
The work involved a roof overlay (cover method) using Super Galtect!
We carried out leak repairs through the roof overlay!
Thank you very much for choosing Kakeru Koumuten Co., Ltd. from among many contractors.


Roof Overlay Construction Procedure

1. Existing Ridge and Snow Stops Removal

We will remove only the ridge flashing and snow stops that obstruct the overlay work.

2. Roofing Installation (Waterproof Sheet)

The roofing used this time is modified asphalt. It is expected to have double the durability of regular asphalt roofing!

3. Custom Fabrication (Kera, Karakusa, Valley)

We will fabricate and install the kera, karakusa, and valley flashing.

4. Main Construction

After the main body is installed, we will place the purlin at the ridge and wall edges. This time, we used cedar purlins, but there are also purlins made of resin that are resistant to corrosion.

5. Ridge Cap Processing

We will process and install the ridge cap. We will firmly apply sealing on the inside of the joints.

6. Cleaning

We will remove footprints that inevitably appear and clean up any debris that has fallen around the house and in the rain gutters.
We strive to ensure that the area looks cleaner after the work than before!

That concludes the construction!

The roofing material used is Aijii Industrial’s Super Galtect.
Super Galtect comes with a manufacturer warranty of 15 years for the coating and 25 years for perforation.
Our company also provides a 10-year construction warranty!
Made of Galvalume steel, it is resistant to rust.
Insulation material is densely applied from edge to edge of the roofing material, creating a metal sheet that integrates steel and insulation.
When installed, insulation is applied even to the parts where the roofing materials overlap, and the surface is coated with high heat-reflective paint, allowing for a cool summer and a warm winter.
Additionally, it has soundproofing properties, reducing the sound of rain.
Moreover, it is lightweight compared to other roofing materials, which reduces the sway during earthquakes, making it a good earthquake countermeasure.
It excels in finish, durability, insulation, soundproofing, and wind resistance, and among our construction achievements, Aijii Industrial’s Super Galtect is the most frequently used and is receiving considerable attention!

What is the Roof Overlay (Cover Method)?

The roof overlay 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.”

Advantages of the Overlay Method

Since a “new roof” is placed over the “current roof,” there is almost no need for demolition work, meaning that very little waste is generated.
This is its most significant feature, leading to various advantages.

The only part that requires demolition and waste disposal is the ridge cap, making it more cost-effective compared to complete roof replacement.
In 2004, regulations regarding the concentration of asbestos in raw materials were changed (for details, please refer to the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare’s website).
Building materials used in structures constructed before 2004 may 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 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, we can complete the work in a shorter time frame than painting or re-roofing. A shorter construction period means lower labor costs, which in turn makes the expenses more affordable.
The psychological anxiety of having to live in an unusual environment is also reduced.
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 normal life in a short period is certainly a significant advantage.

Our company specializes in roofing work, and the roof overlay (cover method) is the most frequently performed service we offer. We are very grateful that we continuously have projects for roof overlay (cover method) without interruption.
