“Reasons why Kakeru Koumuten is chosen in Fujisawa”
If you live in Fujisawa and are considering a skylight replacement,
this information will definitely be helpful, so please take a look!
To conclude, the most important thing when considering skylight work is
“getting multiple estimates”!
Let’s obtain at least three estimates from skylight repair contractors that cover Fujisawa!
Reasons why Kakeru Koumuten is chosen for skylight work in Fujisawa
One reason why we are entrusted with skylight repairs in Fujisawa is that
“being a roofing company in Kanagawa Prefecture” is one of the reasons,
“Our unique approach to skylight replacement work that cannot be imitated by other companies”
has received high praise from many customers.
“cost, quality, and plans” are our absolute strengths,
1. Facilities Specialized in Exterior Renovation
Kakeru Koumuten Co., Ltd. has prepared the following warehouses and material storage areas to provide low-cost, high-quality exterior renovations such as skylight installations.
We have established five bases for material storage and showrooms.
In-house Scaffolding Materials
We own the scaffolding materials necessary for temporary scaffolding required for skylight installations, allowing us to set up scaffolding in-house.
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 approximately enough scaffolding materials for 50 single-family homes!
Storage of Materials in Our Large In-house 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, so we can 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, by separating and recycling waste materials, we can significantly cut down on waste disposal costs.
Exterior Renovation Dedicated Showroom
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 heat insulation properties using a heat 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 inquiry 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 the sales representative 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!
Skylight installation involves dismantling or peeling off roofing materials, so by doing 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 certified professionals such as national qualification sheet metal workers and painting technicians, 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.
4. Warranty and Aftercare
The skylight replacement work comes with a warranty!
Aftercare is available every year, and we send out annual notification DM.
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 altitudes, we can utilize drones to assist!
During leak investigations, we can also use 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 sites require various processing techniques and skills, we regularly provide technical training to ensure all staff can respond effectively.
Possible subsidies and grants for skylight construction in Fujisawa City
In Fujisawa City, there are potential subsidies available when carrying out skylight construction!
For details, please contact our company or your local municipality!
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 Works 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 in the prefecture. Additionally, the residence must ensure seismic performance, and a pre-application must be submitted before starting the work, with the condition that work begins only after receiving a grant decision. Eligible renovation works include insulation improvements 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 provided when eligible energy efficiency renovation work is carried out, and no more than this amount can be received.
Subsidy Rate
The subsidy burden ratio 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 provided will be “up to the maximum limit.”
Please see here for more details!
Child-Rearing Green Housing Support Project
Eligible Applicants
This program targets child-rearing households (households with children under 18) and young couples, focusing on the construction or purchase of new homes with high energy efficiency performance, or energy-efficient renovations of existing homes. For new constructions, the builder or purchaser is eligible, while for renovations, the contractor who orders the work 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 improvements or the introduction of energy-saving equipment. In both cases, it is required to contract with registered businesses and carry out the work within the specified period.
Subsidy Maximum Amount
For new constructions, the maximum subsidy per unit ranges from 400,000 yen to 1,600,000 yen depending on the performance category of the house. For renovations, the maximum subsidy per unit is between 400,000 yen and 600,000 yen, depending on the nature of the work. In either case, even if multiple projects are undertaken, the total subsidy cannot exceed this maximum amount.
Subsidy Rate
This program does not provide a subsidy based on a fixed percentage of the construction costs, but rather offers a predetermined “fixed subsidy” based on the nature of the work and performance categories. Therefore, in effect, the government covers a portion of the construction costs.

Advanced Window Renovation Project
Eligible Participants
Homeowners of existing residential properties (single-family homes and apartment buildings) who are conducting insulation renovation work on windows and openings are eligible. The actual application process for subsidies is carried out by registered “window renovation contractors” recognized by the government, and the granted subsidies are fully refunded to the homeowners through discounts on the 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 the work must commence and be completed within the specified construction period.
Subsidy Maximum Amount
The maximum subsidy is 2,000,000 yen per unit. Even if multiple windows are renovated, the total subsidy received for the same residence will not exceed this maximum amount.
Subsidy Rate
The subsidy rate is approximately equivalent to half of the construction costs. The actual subsidy amount is set at a fixed rate based on the type of window (interior, exterior, glass), size, and insulation performance category, 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, 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, the need to turn on electric lights during the day decreases, making it suitable for energy conservation.
Good Ventilation
By installing a skylight, you can open and close it, improving ventilation.
Warm air rises, enhancing airflow as well.
High Privacy
In areas with closely spaced houses, installing large windows may 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 always some risk of water leakage.
However, with proper installation and regular maintenance, the risk can be minimized significantly.
Regular Maintenance Required
Skylights need maintenance every 5 to 10 years to prevent leaks. While maintenance may seem bothersome, it is recommended to perform 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 the case for all skylights. Choosing double-glazed glass or products with high sound insulation can reduce the noise from rain.

Skylight Replacement Work – Construction Procedure
1. Preparation
2. Skylight Demolition and Roof Material Removal Around Skylight
3. Wooden Framework
4. Waterproof Sheet Installation Around Skylight
This is an important task to prevent leaks.
5. Metal Work Around Skylight and New Roof Material Installation
If the skylight is not properly sealed, it can lead to leaks, so it is essential to carry out this step with care.
6. New Skylight Installation
By properly sealing against rain and conducting regular maintenance, you can prevent leaks.
7. Cleaning
This concludes the work.
How to Choose a Skylight Contractor
There are many skylight contractors in Fujisawa City, 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 if they can also handle roof work
● Check for warranties and aftercare services
● Obtain estimates from multiple contractors (at least 3)
● Confirm if they perform roof renovations in-house
By checking these 5 points, you will be able to choose a reliable contractor.
Have Extensive Experience in Skylight Work
Skylight contractors often have websites showcasing their project achievements.
Additionally, if they provide detailed explanations of repair work with photos, it can give you peace of mind when you actually 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 can also be 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 if They Can Handle Roof Work
Since skylights are installed on roofs, roof work often comes into play.
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 requires 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, 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 done 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.
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 direct mail for aftercare maintenance, allowing for yearly inspections.
For simple repairs like partial sealing, we provide services at no charge.
Obtain estimates from multiple contractors (at least 3)
When requesting skylight work, be sure to get estimates from multiple contractors.
Even for the same repair or replacement work, 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 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, such as glass”
“Confirmation of the process”
and make a detailed comparison! If the quality of auxiliary materials is low or if steps are skipped, costs can be reduced, so avoid making decisions based solely on price!
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.
There are cases where customers who want to keep costs down are suggested to replace the skylight, even though a partial repair would suffice.
Additionally, since the contractor will investigate and then request a subcontractor, it can incur extra time and costs.
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, such as post-construction troubles, tends to be slow.
