Takatsu-ku Exterior Wall Painting Work Procedure

1. High-Pressure Washing



First, we thoroughly remove dirt and moss attached to the exterior walls using high-pressure washing!

2. Protection of Areas

Next, we protect areas that will not be painted, such as windows, sashes, and floors, using masking tape, blue sheets, and polymer masks. This is a very important task in the painting process! If protection is neglected, gaps can form, allowing paint to seep in or resulting in uneven lines.

3. Primer Application


After completing high-pressure washing and surface preparation, we apply the first coat of paint. This primer ensures that the middle and top coats adhere well to the surface. A thorough primer application significantly impacts durability and finish quality!

4. Middle Coat


This is an important process to bring out the performance of the paint, achieve a beautiful finish, and eliminate uneven application!

5. Top Coat


Finally, we apply the top coat, which is the finishing touch for the exterior wall painting. We focus on ensuring there are no uneven areas or missed spots, resulting in a beautiful finish! The paint used is from SK Kaken / Premium Inorganic!

Storm Shutters

We will thoroughly paint every detail! For metal parts, we will apply a rust preventive primer before the intermediate and top coats!

Joint Replacement Work Procedure

1. Removal of Existing Sealant

First, we will remove the existing sealant using a cutter or similar tool.
This is commonly referred to as sealing, caulking, or jointing. It is a critical area that can easily lead to water leaks and cause cracking or lifting of the siding. Cracks and peeling are signs of deterioration!

2. Preparation (Masking Tape Application)

Next, we will check the position for applying the tape and carefully apply it to avoid any overlap on the surface.

3. Application of Primer

Next, we will apply the primer with a brush or similar tool, ensuring there are no missed spots.

What is Primer: It acts like an adhesive! It is often used for surface preparation! It is an essential process for sealing work, enhancing adhesion!

4. Filling the Sealant

Place the nozzle of the caulking gun at the bottom of the joint and fill it adequately. The caulking material used is SR Seal H100.

5. Finishing with a Trowel

Next, use a trowel that matches the width of the joint to press firmly and finish smoothly.

6. Removing the Masking Tape

Finally, promptly remove the masking tape after finishing.

Balcony Waterproofing Construction Procedure

1. Surface Preparation and Roughening

To improve the adhesion of the paint, we will create fine scratches on the painting surface! This is known as surface preparation! We will make the smooth surface rough!

2. Acetone Wiping

 

Next, I will perform acetone wiping! This is also an important surface preparation step. Acetone wiping involves removing the oil film from the FRP waterproof surface! Skipping this step can lead to paint peeling.

3.Applying Primer (First Coat)

The primer acts as an adhesive that enhances the adhesion between the waterproof layer and the topcoat!

4.Applying Topcoat

The topcoat is generally applied in two layers!
Once finished, we will check for any missed spots.

5.Completion of Balcony Waterproofing Work

Once the balcony is dry, the work is complete!

We were able to finish beautifully this time as well!

Tips for Estimating Exterior Painting and Roof Repairs

If you are considering exterior painting and roof repairs around Takatsu-ku, be sure to have knowledge about your budget and estimates!

◇Basic Knowledge to Know Before Requesting a Quote

Before requesting a quote, it is important to understand the processes and roles involved in exterior painting and roof repairs. Each process directly affects the quality and durability of the painting, which is also reflected in the costs. Additionally, the type of paint used and the area to be painted also influence the costs, so it is essential to be aware of this information. Furthermore, it is important to check the reliability, track record, and quality of after-sales service of the contractor to choose a company you can trust.

◇Reasons to Obtain Quotes from Multiple Contractors

Exterior painting and roof repairs are large-scale projects, and it is not uncommon for costs to be high. Therefore, it is recommended to obtain quotes from multiple contractors.

The services and prices vary between contractors, and comparing quotes makes it easier to select a contractor that fits your budget. Additionally, it helps to identify inappropriate quotes or unclear items. This not only helps in understanding unnecessary costs but also prevents issues after the contract is signed.

You can request a quote by applying through the contractor’s website or by contacting them directly.

Kakeru Koumuten Co., Ltd. offers free inspections and estimates, so please feel free to consult us for comparative estimates!

◇How to Read and Compare Estimates

When comparing estimates, key points include each item, total amount, materials used, construction methods, and after-sales service. For example, if only a part is inexpensive, it is necessary to determine whether it is truly reasonable. It is advisable to compare each estimate and consider the overall balance when making a selection.

◇Checkpoints for Additional Costs

In exterior painting and roof repairs, additional costs may arise. By understanding the checkpoints in advance, you can prevent going over budget. It is necessary to set up scaffolding for the construction. Be sure to confirm whether the cost of scaffolding is included in the estimate.

Moreover, in older buildings, damage may progress more than it appears, and if there are many areas to be repaired, additional costs may incur. Furthermore, the cost can vary depending on the type of paint used. If durability and appearance are prioritized, more expensive paint may be considered.

By checking the detailed breakdown when obtaining estimates, you can reduce the risk of incurring high additional costs.

Maintenance After Construction

◇The Importance of Maintenance After Construction

Maintenance after exterior painting and roof repairs is a crucial factor in extending the lifespan of your home. Neglecting maintenance can lead to the newly painted exterior and repaired roof deteriorating quickly, resulting in the risk of incurring high costs. The exterior walls and roof of a building are constantly exposed to harsh natural environments such as rain, wind, UV rays, and temperature changes. Regular maintenance minimizes damage and helps maintain the beauty and comfort of your home. Additionally, it can help avoid large-scale repair work and the associated significant expenses.

◇Maintenance Methods and Frequency

One effective method for post-construction maintenance is inspections by specialized contractors. This allows for the early detection and repair of even minor damages. The recommended frequency for maintenance is generally exterior painting every 5 years and roof repairs every 3 years. This is just a guideline and may vary depending on local climate conditions and the structure of the house.

By conducting regular maintenance, you can protect your valuable home. If you are considering exterior painting or roof repairs in Takatsu-ku, Kawasaki, please contact Kakeru Koumuten Co., Ltd.
