This is an inquiry from a customer living in Tama-ku, Kawasaki.
“They said that roof materials have fallen, and they would like repairs!” they contacted our company!

The existing roofing material is “Colonial NEO,” which cannot be painted. Since there are many cracks and they mentioned, “I want to live here for a long time,” we proposed the roof overlay method using Super Galtect.

Roof Overlay Construction Procedure

1. Dismantling Existing Ridge and Snow Stops

We will dismantle unnecessary parts (ridge flashing) for the overlay method! The durability of wooden purlins is about 10 to 15 years. Exceeding the durability period can lead to corrosion and discoloration, resulting in the ridge flashing coming loose or being blown away.

2. Laying Roofing (Waterproof Sheet)

Next, we will apply the waterproof sheet! The roofing material used is Jouyu Pulp Industry/Sunlight G!
It is made of modified asphalt roofing, which is said to have double the durability compared to regular asphalt roofing.
As a primary waterproofing measure, if the roofing is solid, there will be no leaks! We will ensure it is firmly applied to prevent it from blowing away.

3.Accessory Processing (Karakusa & Keraba)


Before the main roof construction, we will process and install accessories such as keraba and karakusa!
The accessories used are the genuine accessories from Galtect, made of SGL copper plate!

4.Main Construction (Aiji Industry/Super Galtect)

After processing the accessories, we will install the main Galtect roofing up to the ridge!
Once the roofing is completed up to the ridge, we will install the necessary materials called “kanbari” to secure the ridge cap. We offer three types of kanbari: cedar, resin, and galvalume steel, and this time we used cedar!

5.Ridge Cap Processing & Sealing at Various Locations


Next, we will process and install the ridge cap. We will firmly apply sealing on the inside of the joints.
The nails and screws used for fixing are made of stainless steel, which is resistant to rust!

It was right after the snow had fallen, and the entire area was a winter wonderland!

6. Cleaning


We will clean up any debris that has fallen onto balconies and other areas. We will thoroughly remove items like nails and metal scraps that could cause injuries. Additionally, we will wipe away any footprints left on the roof to ensure everything is clean.

About Roofing Materials

The roofing material used is the Super Galtect from Aiji Industrial.
The Super Galtect comes with a 15-year paint warranty and a 25-year hole warranty from the manufacturer.
We also provide a 10-year construction warranty!

Made from SGL steel plates, it is resistant to rust.
Insulation material is tightly applied from edge to edge of the roofing material, creating a metal plate that integrates both the steel plate and insulation.
When installed, insulation is applied even to the parts where the roofing materials overlap, and the surface is coated with a highly heat-reflective paint, allowing for a cool summer and a warm winter.
Additionally, it has soundproofing properties, which reduce the sound of rain.
Being lighter than other roofing materials, it also minimizes the sway during earthquakes, providing earthquake resistance.
It excels in finish, durability, insulation, soundproofing, and wind resistance, and the Super Galtect from Aiji Industrial is the most commonly used in our construction achievements, making it quite popular!

Conclusion

This is the record of roof repairs in Tama-ku, Kawasaki!
The existing roofing material, Colonial NEO, is very prone to cracking and often breaks and falls off on windy days.
Since there is a possibility of accidents or troubles, it is much safer to perform a thorough roof repair using the roof overlay method rather than partially replacing or repairing cracks!
If you do not plan to demolish or move, we recommend the roof overlay method!
