include the fact that “Kakeru Koumuten is a roofing company in Tokyo,”
and our unique approach to skylight replacement work that cannot be imitated by other companies,

“cost, quality, and plans” are our absolute strengths,
1. Equipment 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 installation.
We have established 5 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 enough scaffolding materials for approximately 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 canpurchase 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, we can significantly cut waste disposal costs by separating and recycling the waste materials.
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 installations.
Additionally, one representative will handle everything from the estimate to the completion of the work.
Since the same person is responsible for sales and 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!
Since skylight installation involves dismantling or removing roofing materials, it can significantly reduce costs when done simultaneously with roof replacement or cover work!
3. Various permits obtained and skilled workers on staff
We have obtained construction industry licenses and permits for industrial waste collection and transportation!
We have qualified professionals such as national certified 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 will send out a 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 places, 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 measures for sudden leaks from skylights!
6. Human Resource Development
To improve our skills, we create various roof models and conduct practical training.
Since different processing and techniques are required depending on the site, we regularly conduct skill enhancement training so that each staff member can respond appropriately.
Subsidies and Grants That May Be Applicable for Skylight Construction in Kokubunji City, Tokyo
In Kokubunji 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 years old) 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 ZEH standards or higher. For renovations, it is required to carry out work that improves the energy efficiency of the home, such as insulation renovations or the introduction of energy-saving equipment. In both cases, it is necessary to contract with a registered business and complete the work within the specified period.
Maximum Subsidy Amount
For new construction, the maximum subsidy amount ranges from 400,000 yen to 1,600,000 yen per unit, depending on the performance classification of the home. For renovations, the maximum subsidy amount ranges from 400,000 yen to 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 amount cannot exceed this maximum limit.
Subsidy Rate
This project does not provide a subsidy based on a certain percentage of the construction cost; instead, a predetermined “fixed amount subsidy” is provided based on the content of the work and performance classification. Therefore, in effect, the government covers part of the construction cost.
For more details, please see here!
Advanced Window Renovation Project
Eligible Applicants
Owners 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
The eligible work includes window renovation 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 will be up 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.

Customer Feedback
Advantages and Disadvantages of Skylights
Advantages of Skylights
High Light Transmission
First, the advantage of skylights is their high light transmission.
When natural light comes into the room, it creates a sense of openness, which I believe makes you feel good.
Energy savings
This also contributes to high light transmission, as having natural light allows you to save on electricity costs. Since the need to turn on lights during the day decreases, it is suitable for energy conservation.
Good ventilation
By installing a skylight, you can open and close it, which improves ventilation.
Warm air flows upward, enhancing airflow.
High privacy
In areas with closely spaced houses, installing large windows can make the inside of your home 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 some risk of leaks.
However, with proper installation and regular maintenance, the risk can be minimized significantly.
Regular maintenance is necessary
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 can be bothersome
Since skylights are installed directly on the roof, the sound of raindrops hitting the glass surface can easily be transmitted indoors. 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 Glass Replacement Work – Construction Steps
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 is to ensure that no debris falls 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. We will carefully install it to avoid breaking, just as we did during the removal.
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 matches the type of skylight being used to prevent leaks, so we will check that the fittings are securely fastened.
We will perform waterproofing treatment around the frame with sealing.
How to Choose a Skylight Contractor
There are many skylight contractors in Kokubunji City, and you may be unsure which one to choose.
Therefore, when requesting skylight replacement work or leak repairs, let’s 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 checking 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 where they showcase their work experience.
Additionally, if they provide detailed explanations of repair work with photos, it can give you peace of mind as a reference when you actually request repairs.
If you are concerned about whether the contractor you are about to hire will respond properly, choose one with ample 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 requesting their services.
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 roofs or cannot handle roofing work, it may lead to problems such as leaks after installation or high construction costs.
Furthermore, since skylight replacement or removal may require partial roof dismantling or 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 done at no cost, providing peace of mind!
Additionally, a company that offers a warranty is a sign of confidence in their work, which can serve as a criterion for selecting a contractor!
The warranty period varies by contractor and the nature of the work, but it is generally set between 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 make 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.
For simple repairs like partial sealing, we provide services at no charge.
Obtain estimates from multiple contractors (at least 3)
When requesting skylight installation, obtain estimates from multiple contractors.
Even for the same repair or replacement work, the repair costs and warranties or aftercare services can vary by contractor.
Additionally, obtaining multiple estimates makes it easier to negotiate prices.
To request your preferred contractor at a lower price, it is essential to obtain estimates from multiple contractors.
When comparing estimates, consider not only 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 processes are skipped, costs can be reduced, so avoid making decisions based solely on price!
Check if the contractor 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, which can be expensive, even though partial repairs would suffice.
Additionally, since they need to investigate and then request subcontractors, both time and costs can increase unnecessarily.
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 work, one of the drawbacks is that their response to emergencies, such as post-construction troubles, can be inevitably slow.
