Our work includes roof repair, waterproofing, exterior wall repair, painting, leak investigation, interior renovation, bathroom renovation, kitchen renovation, flooring, and other property improvements. The available work depends on the condition and structure of each building.

Yes. We provide English-language support for property inspections, renovation proposals, quotations, contracts, construction updates, and general communication. We explain Japanese construction practices and technical terms as clearly as possible.

Yes. We work on older detached houses, vacant homes, traditional properties, and other buildings in Kyoto. Before planning the renovation, we examine the building’s current condition and consider which elements should be repaired, replaced, improved, or preserved.

Yes. A site inspection is an important first step. We can examine visible areas such as the roof, exterior walls, waterproofing, interior surfaces, floors, ceilings, plumbing areas, and signs of water leakage or deterioration. The exact inspection scope depends on the property and the owner’s concerns.

Yes. In many cases, the source of a leak should be repaired before damaged ceilings, walls, or flooring are restored. Because we handle roofing, waterproofing, exterior repairs, and interior renovation, we can review the building as a whole and propose an appropriate order of work.

We first confirm the property’s condition, the owner’s priorities, and the intended use of the building. The quotation is then prepared based on the required work, materials, site access, construction method, and project conditions. A more accurate quotation usually requires an on-site inspection.

Additional work may become necessary if concealed damage is discovered after roofing materials, walls, ceilings, floors, or fixtures are removed. We try to identify foreseeable risks before construction begins. When significant additional work is found, we explain the situation and discuss the cost with the owner before proceeding.

The construction period depends on the size of the property, the extent of the work, material availability, access conditions, and whether hidden damage is found. A small repair may take only a few days, while a larger renovation may require several weeks or months. We provide an estimated schedule after the project scope has been confirmed.

Yes. We can communicate by email and online meetings while you are overseas. However, we ask all clients to attend at least one on-site meeting in Kyoto before construction begins. This allows us to review the property together, confirm the renovation details, and make sure that both sides have a clear understanding of the project.

Kyoto contains many older buildings, narrow access roads, traditional construction methods, and area-specific conditions. A local company can assess these practical factors when planning the work. Tsuji Kenzai has worked in Kyoto since 1921 and aims to provide careful, understandable, and dependable renovation services for both Japanese and international clients.
