Cracked, leaning, or wobbling.
We'll take care of that "something's wrong."
A wobbling block wall, a leaning fence, a crack in the paving, a gate half off its hinges. Wear around the home is easy to grow used to — "this is just how it is" — when you see it every day. But it's the small faults that, left alone, spread and turn one day into a major job. Act early, and it costs far less in both money and trouble.
At Iwai, we hold the small request — "I just want this one spot fixed" — as the most precious of all. Sometimes keeping what you have, and using it long, means far more than building anew. We work out why it wore, and mend it with care, so you can use it with peace of mind again.
The ground, the years, or the way it was built. Before mending, we work out why it wore and treat it so the same thing won't happen again. We don't patch it over as a stopgap.
Even a repair to just one spot, we take on gladly. We won't push you toward "while we're at it, let's redo the lot." Start from where you're troubled right now.
After a typhoon, or a wobble that looks ready to topple. Dangerous things can't be left. To "please come quickly," we answer as fast as we can.
When a natural disaster — a typhoon, heavy snow, an earthquake — damages your exterior, your home insurance (wind and flood cover, and the like) may pay to repair it. "I wonder if my policy covers this?" is something we're glad to talk through. From how to photograph the damage to how to put it to the insurer, we help as far as we're able. First, please don't leave the broken part as it is — drop us a line.
* Whether insurance applies depends on your policy and the nature of the damage. We can't promise a sure outcome, but we'll look into it with you.
Consultations and estimates are free. No need to wonder "is this even worth calling about."
While it's still a small crack, please feel free. To "come quickly" after a typhoon, we'll be there as fast as we can.
Yes — we can handle "just make the dangerous part safe" first. A block wall about to topple, a gate coming off its hinge — anything you can't leave alone, we can secure for now, first. The proper repair can come afterward, once things have settled. Removing the danger comes first.
Of course. A single-spot repair is what we hold most dear. There's no need to feel awkward, thinking "over something this small." Nor will we push "you may as well redo the whole thing" on you. We fix what's troubling you right now.
We'll come as soon as we can. After a typhoon or heavy snow, requests can pile up, but we go in order of what's dangerous first. For anything urgent — about to fall, wobbling — please tell us so. The more it can't be left alone, the faster we move.
We assess the cause of the damage and repair from there. The ground, the years, the original build — patch it over without finding out why, and the same thing repeats. We look at why it wore out, then fix it so you can use it safely, for a long time. We don't do repairs that merely cover the surface.
We'll tell you honestly which is truly better. Sometimes using what you have for longer means more than building anew. We look at the extent of the damage, judge whether a repair is enough or a rebuild is wiser, and explain it. Let's decide together, to suit your budget and how you feel.
