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 5 bases centered around Yokohama.

In-house Scaffolding Materials

We own the scaffolding materials necessary for temporary scaffolding required for skylight installation, allowing us to assemble 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 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 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 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 installations.
Additionally, one representative will handle everything from the estimate to project completion.
Since the same person is responsible for sales and construction management, smooth communication is possible.

We can handle everything from the installation of temporary scaffolding to exterior painting, roofing work, and exterior cover work completely in-house!

Skylight installation involves dismantling or removing 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.

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 altitudes, we can respond using a drone!
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

We are creating various roof models to enhance our skills and conducting practical training.
Since different processing and techniques are required depending on the site, we regularly provide skill enhancement education to ensure that each staff member can respond appropriately.

Subsidies and Grants That May Be Applicable for Skylight Construction in Higashiyamato City, Tokyo

In Higashiyamato City, Tokyo, there are potential subsidies available when carrying out skylight construction!
For details, please contact our company or your local government!

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 energy-efficient homes, or energy-saving renovations of existing homes. For new construction, 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 standards set by the government, such as exceeding ZEH standards. For renovations, the work must improve the energy efficiency of the home through insulation upgrades or the introduction of energy-saving equipment. In both cases, it is required to contract with a registered business and complete the work within the specified period.

Maximum Subsidy Amount

For new construction, the maximum subsidy is between 400,000 yen and 1,600,000 yen per unit, depending on the performance category of the home. For renovations, the maximum subsidy is between 400,000 yen and 600,000 yen per unit, depending on the content of the work. In either case, even if multiple works are carried out, the total subsidy cannot exceed this maximum amount.

Subsidy Rate

This program does not provide a subsidy based on a certain percentage of the construction costs; instead, a predetermined “fixed amount subsidy” is provided based on the content and performance category of the work. Therefore, in effect, the government bears part of the construction costs.

For more details, please see here!

Advanced Window Renovation Project

Eligible Applicants

Homeowners of existing homes (single-family homes and apartment buildings) who are carrying out 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 works include window renovation projects aimed at improving insulation performance, such as installing interior windows, replacing exterior windows, and replacing glass 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 start and be completed within the specified construction period.

Maximum Subsidy Amount

The maximum subsidy is 2 million yen per household. Even if multiple windows are renovated, the total subsidy that can be received for the same residence is limited to this maximum amount.

Subsidy Rate

The subsidy rate is approximately half of the construction cost. The actual subsidy amount is set at a fixed rate based on the type of window (inner window, outer window, glass), size, and insulation performance category, resulting in a total that is about 50% of the construction cost.

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 it feel more pleasant.

Energy Savings


This is also related to their high light transmission, as having natural light allows you to save on electricity bills. Since you will need to turn on the lights less during the day, it is conducive to energy conservation.

Good Ventilation


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

High Privacy


In areas where houses are closely built, 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 the roof for installation, there is some risk of leaks.

However, with proper installation and regular maintenance, the current skylights can minimize this risk 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. This noise can be particularly noticeable during heavy rain or storms.

However, this is not strongly felt with all skylights. By choosing double-glazed glass or products with high sound insulation, the sound of rain can be reduced.

Background to the Construction
Due to cracks in the skylight glass, we received a request to replace the skylight glass along with the roof overlay work.

Skylight Glass Replacement Work – Construction Procedure

1. Remove the surrounding materials of the skylight

First, we will remove the cover materials and securing materials around the skylight. These materials will be reused, so we will take them off carefully.

2. Protection

We will protect the area around the skylight indoors.
This protection is done to prevent debris from falling inside.

3. Removal of Existing Glass

Next, after removing the cover materials, we will take out the existing glass.

4. Installation of New Glass

Once the existing glass is removed, we will install the new glass. Just like during removal, we will carefully install it to avoid breaking the glass.

5. Waterproofing Treatment

When replacing the skylight glass, waterproofing treatment may be necessary.
We will perform waterproofing around the glass using butyl tape and other materials.

6. Restoration of Materials and Sealing

We will reattach the covers and fasteners that held the glass in place.
It is important to ensure that the installation method used matches the type of skylight, as improper installation could lead to leaks. We will check that the fittings are securely fastened.
Waterproofing treatment will be done around the frame with sealing.

How to Choose a Skylight Contractor

There are many skylight contractors in Higashiyamato City, and you may be unsure which one to choose.

Therefore, when requesting skylight replacement work or leak repairs, please check the following 5 points.

● They have extensive experience in skylight work

● Confirm if they can also handle roofing 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 confirming the above 5 points, you will be able to choose a reliable contractor.

They have extensive experience in skylight work

Skylight contractors often have websites that 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 properly, choose a contractor 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 making a request.

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

Confirm if they can handle roofing work

Since skylights are installed on roofs, roofing work is often involved.
If the contractor lacks knowledge about roofing or cannot handle roofing work, it could lead to leaks after installation or high construction costs, resulting in potential troubles.

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 after-sales maintenance

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 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 after-sales services in addition to warranties, so be sure to check if the contractor you are considering has warranties and after-sales services.

Kakeru Koumuten Co., Ltd. sends out annual DM for after-sales maintenance, allowing for yearly inspections.
We also provide free support for simple repairs like partial sealing.

Obtain estimates from multiple contractors (at least 3 companies)

When requesting skylight work, be sure to obtain estimates from multiple contractors.

Even for the same repair or replacement work, costs can vary between contractors, as can warranties and after-sales services.

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

To request your desired repair contractor at the best 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 of glass, etc.”
“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 work is done 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.
Even if a customer wants to keep costs down and only needs partial repairs, they may be suggested to replace the skylight, which can be costly.

Additionally, since they need to investigate and then request subcontractors, it can 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 completely, one of the drawbacks is that their response to emergencies or troubles after construction tends to be delayed.
