The most important thing when considering exterior wall siding is “getting multiple estimates”!

Estimates and consultations are free!
We welcome multiple estimates!

What is the exterior wall cover method?

We will explain in detail the recommended points and precautions of the exterior wall cover method!

The exterior wall cover method is a construction process that overlays a new exterior wall on top of the existing wall.
It is possible to overlay various types of walls such as ALC walls, ceramic siding, and mortar walls.
The exterior materials used in the exterior wall cover method are generally lightweight and durable metal siding.

While the costs are higher compared to exterior painting, it is a renovation method for exterior walls that has various benefits and is gaining attention year by year.

Why is the exterior wall cover method so popular?

Here are the “five points” that have received praise for Kakeru Koumuten’s exterior wall cover method!

Point 1　Super high durability!!

Metal siding offers an overwhelmingly high expected durability compared to exterior painting.
Made of Galvalume steel, SGL steel, and aluminum, there are various types of metal siding, but with aluminum, you can expect a durability of over 40 years!
Additionally, unlike ceramic siding or mortar exteriors, it does not crack or chip, making its sturdiness one of its advantages!
If you use high-durability sealing materials, maintenance will be unnecessary for nearly 30 years!

Point 2　Improved Insulation!!

Cross-section of metal siding

The metal siding used in the exterior cover method has integrated insulation.
Moreover, by installing furring strips before the metal siding installation to create a ventilation layer, the insulation properties are significantly improved!
This enhancement in insulation is one of the major benefits of metal siding.

Point 3　Comprehensive Warranty for Peace of Mind!!

While many construction companies offer their own warranties for exterior painting, manufacturer warranties are generally not included.
Metal siding comes with solid manufacturer warranties, such as coating and perforation guarantees, providing a high level of reassurance for long-term exterior renovations!

Point 4　Improved Waterproofing!!

With the exterior material being double-layered, it effectively prevents rainwater intrusion, significantly enhancing waterproofing.
Applying waterproof paper before installation further increases waterproofing!

Point 5　Enhanced Aesthetics!!

Various designs such as wood grain and tile patterns

Metal siding allows for a finish that resembles a new build, which cannot be achieved with exterior painting.
There are various designs available, ranging from simple styles to tile and wood grain patterns.
You can choose from a variety of designs to match the atmosphere of your building and your preferences!
Major manufacturers include “Aiji Industrial“, “Keimyuu“, “Nichihara“, and “Asahi Tostem“, each offering a wide range of types and designs of metal siding.
If you find a product of interest in the catalog, you can also request cut samples!

What to be aware of when doing exterior wall cover work with metal siding?

Next, we will explain the “three points to be cautious about” when using metal siding for exterior wall cover methods!

Point 1　Few contractors can perform the work

There are significantly fewer contractors capable of performing the cover method with metal siding compared to exterior painting contractors.
Many inexperienced contractors exist, leading to a higher occurrence of troubles.
Since there is often a variation in estimated costs, to ensure a satisfactory project, if you are considering the exterior wall cover method with metal siding, be sure to obtain estimates from three or more companies and carefully review the details!

Point 2　Prone to dents and scratches

Metal siding can develop dents from impacts when objects hit it.
Additionally, being prone to scratches is one of its disadvantages.
If noticeable scratches occur and are a concern, it is possible to request repairs from a specialized repair contractor!

Point 3　Long construction period

Exterior wall cover work can be considered one of the most extensive renovations in exterior remodeling.
While exterior painting typically takes about 2 to 3 weeks, exterior wall cover work can often take close to a month.
The long construction period can be a source of stress for residents, making it one of the disadvantages.

About the Costs of Exterior Wall Covering Work

It serves as a guideline for the cost of performing the exterior wall overlay (cover method) on a building with a floor area of 30 tsubo.

The cost of exterior wall cover work is determined by the following calculation.
Exterior wall area (㎡) × Siding unit price + Equipment removal and installation costs + Additional painting costs = Total amount
This will be the total.

Galvalume Steel	30 to 35 years	Including Tax Approximately 2,000,000 yen (Siding unit price 11,000 yen/㎡~)

Please note that this is just a guideline amount, and detailed estimates are completely free, so feel free to contact us.

How to Choose a Siding Contractor

There are fewer contractors that handle exterior wall cover work compared to exterior painting contractors, so it may be difficult to find a reliable contractor, such as “where should I request?”
The most important thing in choosing a contractor and obtaining estimates is to always obtain multiple estimates!

For this reason, when requesting exterior wall cover work, let’s confirm the following four points.

By confirming the above four points, you will be able to choose a trustworthy contractor.

1. Check the contents and materials of the estimate

When obtaining an estimate for exterior wall cover work, let’s check the following items!

・Is the proposed new siding material suitable for your requirements?

Check whether materials that meet your requirements, such as durability and insulation, are being proposed!
Since there are various types of metal siding, such as cost-effective siding and insulation-focused siding, make sure that the proposed siding aligns with your original requirements!

・Is the proposed installation method appropriate?

When performing exterior wall cover work, it is necessary to create a ventilation layer between the existing exterior wall and the new exterior wall material using a method called “ventilation method.”
If you do not create a ventilation layer and apply it directly, moisture cannot escape, leading to mold or corrosion, and may result in peeling or lifting of the exterior wall material.
Check whether the proposed work is appropriate!

・Are the quantities and construction details described in detail?

If the content is vague, such as “exterior wall cover work 1 set,” it will be difficult to understand the construction method and what the costs are for, making it hard to compare estimates.
Having clear unit prices and quantities for items like foundation water cutting and trim lengths will provide reassurance and help prevent issues.
If there are items of concern not included in the estimate, be sure to confirm the reason for their exclusion!

・Check the auxiliary materials to be used!

Check not only the siding itself but also the types of detailed auxiliary materials, such as “types of battens,” “siding fasteners,” and “types of waterproof paper“!
For example, siding fasteners are screws, and the overall cost will vary between iron and stainless steel.
While iron may appear cheaper at first glance, stainless steel is resistant to rust and is the recommended fastener.

2. Confirm the existence of guarantees and aftercare maintenance

When choosing a contractor for exterior wall covering work, be sure to check for warranties.

Exterior wall covering work is one of the more expensive types of exterior renovations, so in addition to checking for manufacturer warranties, also confirm whether the company offers its own warranty!
If the contractor has a warranty period, they may offer free repairs within that period.

The warranty period varies depending on the contractor and the specifics of the work, but a 5 to 10-year period is common.

Additionally, some contractors provide after-service separate from the warranty, so be sure to check if the contractor you are considering has after-service available.

Kakeru Koumuten Co., Ltd. always includes a warranty with its exterior wall covering work.
We also provide after-maintenance, and we send out annual DM reminders, so if you wish, inspections can be conducted every year.

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

When requesting exterior wall covering work, be sure to get estimates from multiple contractors.

Even for the same repair work, the costs can vary between contractors, as well as the warranties and after-services offered.

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

To request your desired repair contractor at a lower cost, obtaining estimates from multiple contractors is essential.
When comparing estimates, consider not only the costs but also the details of the plans, materials, and auxiliary supplies!

4. Confirm whether the company performs exterior wall covering work in-house

There can be cost differences between companies that handle the work in-house and those that outsource it to external companies, and issues such as miscommunication with external contractors can also arise.

Furthermore, if problems occur after the work is completed, the response may be slow, or there may be no dealings with the external contractor, leading to potential troubles.
Being able to respond immediately when something goes wrong is one of the reasons why companies that perform the work in-house are recommended!
