1.Specialized equipment for exterior renovations

At Kakeru Koumuten Co., Ltd., we have organized the following warehouses and material storage areas to provide more affordable and faster exterior renovations such as waterproofing work.
We have established 5 bases centered around Aoba-ku, Yokohama for material storage and showrooms.

In-house Ownership of Scaffolding Materials


We own the scaffolding materials necessary for temporary scaffolding required for waterproofing work, allowing us to assemble temporary scaffolding in-house.

Since everything is done in-house, we can significantly reduce costs through shortened construction periods!
We have approximately enough scaffolding materials for 50 single-family homes!

Storage of Materials in Our Large In-house Warehouse

 
We store roofing materials and waterproofing components.
By ordering a large quantity of materials at once, we can procure materials at a lower cost!
Additionally, we always have waterproofing components in stock, allowing us to respond quickly to emergency waterproofing work!

In-house waste separation

In waterproofing work, various waste materials are generated.
Most contractors dispose of them all together, but by sorting and recycling waste materials, significant cost reductions in waste disposal can be achieved.

Exterior Renovation Dedicated Showroom


In our showroom, not only can you have meetings, but you can also
directly check the actual structure and colors.

2.Complete In-House Construction

One of Kakeru Koumuten’s major strengths is complete in-house construction.

Inquiry Details
We have received the following inquiries from our customer:
・There are wrinkles and bulges in the waterproof sheet on the rooftop, so I am worried about leaks.
・I would like an estimate for a complete waterproof renovation, not just partial repairs or a top coat.
・I learned that urethane waterproofing has high waterproofing properties, so I would like an estimate for urethane waterproofing.
・Since this is my first waterproofing work, I would like to compare estimates.

Our Proposal

Since you mentioned wanting a long-lasting method rather than protective agents like top coats, we proposed a complete “urethane waterproofing work” for the rooftop.

If urethane waterproofing is applied using the adhesion method, air rising from the building can cause bulges in the waterproof layer, so we proposed the “urethane waterproofing ventilation buffer method.”

The ventilation buffer method involves applying a ventilation buffer sheet over the entire area before applying urethane waterproofing.
By applying the ventilation buffer sheet first, the air rising from the building is suppressed by the ventilation sheet and expelled through the “ventilation pipe.”

This can prevent the most common trouble of bulging in the waterproof layer!

After explaining the materials and methods, you entrusted the work to us among the four estimates!

Timing for Waterproofing Work

Leaks Have Already Occurred

If leaks have already occurred, it is necessary to address them promptly before the damage spreads.
If left unattended, it can adversely affect the interior and underlying structures, so it is essential to stop the leaks quickly.

Bulging or Cracking of the Waterproof Layer

If the waterproof area is cracked, it can cause rainwater to enter.
If the waterproof layer is bulging, it indicates that moisture is accumulating within the layer.
Bulging can lead to cracks and subsequently to leaks, so early detection and action are necessary.

Moss or Mold Growth

Moss or mold can develop due to accumulated moisture or rainwater.
This can be caused by poor drainage or sinking of the waterproof layer due to aging.

Exceeding the Durability Period

Generally, the durability period for waterproofing work is 10 to 20 years.
Of course, the durability period can vary depending on the construction method and materials, but for some types of waterproofing, it is recommended to apply only the surface protective agent (top coat) approximately every 8 years (such as urethane waterproofing or FRP waterproofing).
We recommend conducting regular inspections starting from 5 years after construction.

Understanding the types of waterproofing and performing appropriate maintenance is essential.
If you are unsure about the type of waterproofing, please send us a photo via email or LINE, and we will help you determine it!

Types of Waterproofing Work

1. Urethane Waterproofing

Urethane waterproofing is a method where liquid polyurethane resin is applied in layers to the waterproofing surface.
Since it is liquid before curing, it can be applied to complex shapes, and unlike sheet waterproofing, it can be installed without seams, which is a significant advantage.
It can be widely applied to balconies and rooftops.
For more details on the advantages, disadvantages, and maintenance methods of urethane waterproofing, please refer to the article below.

2. Rubber Sheet Waterproofing

Rubber sheet waterproofing involves adhering synthetic rubber sheets to the surface to prevent water intrusion.
This type of waterproofing is commonly used on large areas such as rooftops.
Compared to urethane waterproofing, it has the advantage of faster installation since there is no waiting for drying, but it is not suitable for complex surfaces.
For more details on the advantages, disadvantages, and maintenance methods of rubber sheet waterproofing, please refer to the article below.

3. PVC Sheet Waterproofing

PVC sheet waterproofing is a waterproof sheet made of polyvinyl chloride, and like rubber sheet waterproofing, it is applied to the surface to prevent water intrusion.
Similar to rubber sheets, it is not suitable for complex shapes. Although the cost is higher than rubber sheets and urethane waterproofing, its durability is a significant advantage.
For more details on the advantages and disadvantages of PVC sheet waterproofing, as well as maintenance methods, please refer to the article below.

4. Long Sheet Waterproofing

Long sheet waterproofing, officially known as “anti-slip vinyl floor sheet,” is commonly used in shared areas and staircases of apartments where people walk.
As the name suggests, it is slip-resistant and has high durability and abrasion resistance, making it suitable for walking areas.
Additionally, it comes in various designs, excelling in aesthetics.
However, it tends to be more expensive, and since it does not overlap seams like rubber sheets or PVC sheets, it may have a slightly lower impression of waterproofing.
It is rarely used in areas like rooftops of apartments where people do not enter.
For more details on the advantages and disadvantages of long sheet waterproofing, as well as maintenance methods, please refer to the article below.

5. FRP Waterproofing

FRP waterproofing involves creating a waterproof layer by solidifying glass mat with epoxy resin to prevent rainwater intrusion.
It is commonly applied in single-family home balconies, with an overwhelmingly short construction period, often completed in as little as one day.
Due to its lightweight and low cost, it seems that about 80% of single-family home balconies use FRP waterproofing.
However, it is not suitable for installation on large areas, making it less appropriate for rooftops.
For more details on the advantages and disadvantages of FRP waterproofing, as well as maintenance methods, please refer to the article below.

6. Asphalt Waterproofing

Asphalt waterproofing is a waterproof sheet that has asphalt permeated into synthetic fiber non-woven fabric.
The waterproofing shown in the photo is a method where asphalt waterproofing is pressed down with cinder concrete.
This type of waterproofing is used in large buildings such as rooftops of schools and commercial facilities.
While there are various methods of asphalt waterproofing, each with its own advantages and disadvantages, a significant benefit is its high durability.

For more details on the advantages, disadvantages, and maintenance methods of asphalt waterproofing, please refer to the article below.

How to Choose a Waterproofing Contractor

There are many waterproofing contractors available in Kunitachi City, Tokyo.
Among the numerous contractors, I believe many people feel “I don’t know who to ask…”.
Choosing a contractor for the first time can be challenging, so
I will explain 5 points to be careful about when requesting waterproofing work.

● Have extensive experience in waterproofing work

● Confirm the presence of aftercare and warranty

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

● Check if they perform waterproofing work in-house

● Carefully review the details of the waterproofing estimate, including processes and materials used

By confirming the above 5 points, you will be able to select a reliable contractor.

Check if they have extensive experience in waterproofing work

About 10-20% of waterproofing work troubles are caused by construction defects during the installation.
To prevent troubles, it is important to hire a reliable contractor with experience!
You need to refer to the contractor’s website for their construction achievements and reviews to make a judgment.
There are also contractors who showcase their achievements on social media platforms like Instagram, so checking those can be effective!
It is also effective to look at waterproofing companies on review sites for reference!
A particularly recommended review site is “Google”.
Since contractors cannot delete low ratings on their own, it provides trustworthy reviews.
If there are many negative reviews or no reviews at all, it may be wise to refrain from making a request.

Check if there is aftercare maintenance and construction warranty

In case any construction defects or issues occur after the work is done, let’s confirm if they provide a construction warranty!
Contractors who offer warranties are usually confident in their work, making them more trustworthy!

If waterproofing work is done, make sure to have photos taken of hidden areas during the process for confirmation!
Check for leaks during rainy weather after the waterproofing work, and if there are any issues, contact the contractor immediately as the communication will be smoother shortly after the work is completed!

Also, to ensure early detection of any issues that may arise, confirm if they provide thorough aftercare maintenance!
Since non-specialized contractors may not notice early signs of problems or troubles, having a specialized contractor conduct regular aftercare maintenance can help prevent issues before they arise!

Our company sends out aftercare maintenance DM every year, so if desired, annual aftercare maintenance is possible!

Obtain estimates from multiple contractors (at least three)

When requesting waterproofing work, always get estimates from multiple contractors.
We recommend obtaining estimates from at least three companies.

Even for the same waterproofing work, costs may vary between contractors, as well as warranties and after-service options.

Additionally, obtaining multiple estimates makes it easier to negotiate prices. To request at the lowest possible cost, it is essential to get estimates from several contractors.
When comparing estimates, check not only the costs but also the details such as “types of materials used” and “construction methods”!

Check if they perform waterproofing work in-house

Confirm whether they perform waterproofing work in-house!
If a sales company investigates and then requests a subcontractor, it will take more time and cost.
Moreover, there may be cases where the customer’s requests are not 100% communicated to the subcontractor, leading to troubles.
By having one company handle everything from sales to construction, responsible waterproofing work can be done quickly and cost-effectively. Kakeru Koumuten conducts everything from on-site surveys to actual construction in-house!

Furthermore, if any leaks or troubles occur, a company that employs its own craftsmen can respond to and resolve issues quickly!

Carefully Check the Estimate Details, Process, and Materials for Waterproofing Work

Even for the same waterproofing work, there are various types such as “method,” “materials,” and “process,” and it is necessary to carry out the work using the most suitable method and materials based on the construction location and existing substrate.

For example, even with the same urethane waterproofing, there are different types of processes such as “adhesion method” and “ventilated buffer method,” and there are various types of urethane waterproofing materials like “high-strength specification,” “heat-insulating specification,” and “anti-slip specification,” so it is essential to confirm whether the construction details are appropriate for the location!

It is important not to judge solely based on cost, but to carefully check whether “the method is appropriate for the substrate?” and “are the materials suitable?”

Therefore, if the materials used are only “urethane waterproofing materials,” let’s confirm the product name and check what kind of materials they are!
