“Kakeru Koumuten is a roofing company in Yokohama,”
but we also have “initiatives in skylight replacement work that cannot be imitated by other companies”
, which has received high praise from many customers.

“cost, quality, and plans” are our absolute strengths,
and we would be grateful if you could compare them with estimates from other companies.
We are confident, so we welcome price comparisons.

1. Equipment 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 installation.
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 installation, allowing us to set up scaffolding ourselves.
By performing scaffolding work with our own scaffolding team instead of outsourcing, we can cut costs on 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 canprocure materials at a lower cost!
Additionally, we always have stock available, allowing us torespond 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, by separating and recycling waste materials, we can significantly cut down on waste disposal costs.

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 perform color simulations for exterior painting and check thermal insulation properties using a thermal insulation testing machine!

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 assist you from the estimate to the completion of the project.
Since the same person handles everything, including sales and construction management, smooth communication is possible.

We can fully handle everything from temporary scaffolding setup to exterior painting, roofing work, and exterior cover work with complete in-house construction!

Skylight installation involves dismantling or peeling off roofing materials, so by performing it simultaneously with roof replacement or cover work, you can significantly reduce costs!

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, allowing us to handle asbestos-containing roofing materials and conduct preliminary surveys.

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 when access to the roof is not possible, we can utilize drones to assist!
During leak investigations, we can also conduct inspections 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

We are creating various roof models to improve our skills and conducting practical training.
Since different sites require various processing and techniques, we regularly provide skill enhancement education to ensure all staff can respond effectively.

Subsidies and Grants Available 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 houses located in Kanagawa Prefecture who reside in those houses on a daily basis. The eligible housing must be a residence where the owner themselves lives, regardless of whether it is a detached house or an apartment.

Eligible Construction and Conditions

To receive the subsidy, the following requirements must be met. First, the renovation must target existing houses in the prefecture and utilize products with insulation performance specified by the national government, such as windows, glass, and insulation materials for energy-efficient renovation work. Additionally, the house must ensure seismic performance, and a prior application must be submitted before starting the construction, with work commencing only after receiving a 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 house. This is the total subsidy granted when implementing eligible energy-efficient renovation work, 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 limit of 200,000 yen, the amount granted will be “up to the maximum limit.”

Child-Rearing Green Housing Support Project

Eligible Applicants

Households with children (households with children under 18) and young couples are eligible for new construction or purchase of houses with high energy efficiency performance, or for energy-efficient renovations of existing houses. In the case of new construction, the builder or purchaser is eligible, while for renovations, the contractor is the eligible applicant.

Requirements

For new houses, it is necessary to meet high energy efficiency performance standards set by the government, such as ZEH standards or higher. For renovations, it is required to carry out work that improves the energy efficiency of the house, such as insulation renovations or the introduction of energy-efficient equipment. In both cases, it is necessary to contract with a registered business 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, depending on the work content. In either case, even if multiple works are performed, the subsidy cannot exceed this upper limit.

Subsidy Rate

This program does not provide a subsidy based on a certain percentage of construction costs, but rather 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.

Please see here for more details!

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” with the government, and the granted subsidies are fully refunded to the homeowners through discounts on construction costs.

Requirements

Eligible renovations include the installation of interior windows, replacement of exterior windows, and glass replacement 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 construction must start and be completed within the specified 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 that can be received for the same house is capped at this upper limit.

Subsidy Rate

The subsidy rate is approximately half of the construction costs. The actual subsidy amount is set at a fixed rate based on the type of window (interior window, exterior window, glass), size, and insulation performance classification, resulting in a total that is approximately 50% of the construction costs.

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, which I believe makes you feel good.

Energy Savings

This also contributes to high light transmission, as the presence of natural light allows you to save on electricity costs. Since you will reduce the need to turn on lights during the day, it is suitable for energy conservation.

Good Ventilation


By installing a skylight, you can open and close it, which improves ventilation.
Warm air rises, so airflow also improves.

High Privacy

In areas where houses are closely packed together, installing large windows can make the interior visible. 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. After all, since it involves opening up the roof, there is a certain risk of leaks.

However, with proper installation and regular maintenance of modern skylights, this risk can be minimized significantly.

Regular Maintenance Required

Skylights need maintenance every 5 to 10 years to prevent leaks. While maintenance may seem troublesome, 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 surface can easily be transmitted indoors, which is a disadvantage. In particular, the sound can be quite 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.

Skylight Replacement Work – Construction Procedure

1. Preparation

First, we will take precautions to prevent dirt from getting into the interior.

2. Skylight Demolition and Roof Material Removal Around Skylight

Next, we will remove the skylight and the roof materials around it.

3. Wooden Frame Assembly

Once the removal is complete, we will assemble the wooden frame for the skylight.

4. Waterproof Sheet Installation Around Skylight

Next, we will install roofing sheets around the skylight.
This is an important task to prevent water leaks.

5. Metal Work Around Skylight and New Roof Material Installation

After installing the roofing sheets, we will proceed with the metal work.
If the skylight is not properly sealed, there is a high risk of water leaks. Therefore, it is necessary to proceed with caution.

6. New Skylight Installation

Finally, we will install the new skylight.

By properly sealing against rain and performing regular maintenance, you can prevent leaks.

7. Cleaning

Once the installation is complete, we will conduct a 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, make sure to check the following 5 points.

● Have extensive experience in skylight work

● Confirm whether they can also handle roof work

● Check for warranties and aftercare services

● Obtain estimates from multiple contractors (at least 3)

● Confirm whether 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 showcasing 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 hiring them.

Kakeru Koumuten Co., Ltd. specializes in exterior work, so we receive many requests for skylight replacement work.

Confirm Whether 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 installation or high construction costs.

Moreover, since skylight replacement or removal may require partial dismantling of the roof and restoration, performing it together with roof overlay work or re-roofing 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, let’s confirm the availability of 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 are often confident in their work, making this 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.

Furthermore, some contractors offer aftercare services in addition to warranties, so be sure to check if the contractor you are considering has warranties andaftercare services.

Kakeru Koumuten Co., Ltd. sends out annual DM for aftercare maintenance, allowing for yearly inspections.
We provide simple repairs such as partial sealing at no charge.

Obtain estimates from multiple contractors (at least 3)

When requesting skylight installation, let’s obtain estimates from multiple contractors.

Even for the same repair or replacement work, costs and warranties or aftercare services can vary between contractors.

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

To request your desired repair contractor at a lower price, obtaining estimates from multiple contractors is essential.

When comparing estimates, consider not only the cost but also
“Items in the estimate”
“Materials and quality of glass”
“Confirmation of processes”
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!

The Importance of Comparing Estimates for Roof Renovation in Yokohama and Key Points to Consider!Hello! This is Kakeru Koumuten Co., Ltd.! We are Kakeru Koumute...

Check if the company 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 plan details will vary depending on the actual state of deterioration and the customer’s preferences.

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, even when partial repairs would suffice, resulting in higher expenses.

Additionally, since they will investigate and then request subcontractors, it will take extra time and cost.
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, one of the disadvantages is that their response to emergencies or troubles after construction tends to be delayed.
