Amid Rising Delays in Large-Scale Repairs Due to Material Supply Risks, Sanzin Rebuild Works Launches Free Construction Risk Consultation Desk

"We've signed the contract, but can't predict material delivery dates"—this anxiety is spreading across large-scale repair projects for condominiums and commercial buildings. Against the backdrop of geopolitical tensions in the Middle East and instability in naphtha supply, shortages and price hikes for paints, thinners, and related materials have become apparent, prompting a reevaluation of entire repair plans, including exterior painting and waterproofing. Sanzin Rebuild Works, the large-scale renovation division of Sanzin Home Service Co., Ltd., has launched a 'Large-Scale Repair and Construction Risk Consultation Desk' to provide options for continuing construction even under these supply risks.

Current Challenges Facing Management Associations and Building Owners

Regular large-scale repairs are essential investments to protect the asset value and safety of condominiums and buildings. However, due to the impact of Middle East tensions and naphtha supply instability, rising prices and supply shortages are spreading, particularly for paints, thinners, and painting-related materials.

The impact extends beyond exterior painting. In large-scale repairs involving interconnected processes such as scaffolding, exterior repairs, waterproofing, sealing, cleaning, and protective coatings, a delay in the delivery of a single material can affect the entire project timeline.

Therefore, management associations and owners must now make early decisions—not just waiting under traditional specifications—but proactively assessing what materials are currently available, which works should be prioritized, and what alternative methods can be used.

Why 'Waiting Until Materials Stabilize' Isn't Always the Best Option

In times of unstable material supply, the decision to 'wait until things settle' may seem safe at first glance. However, building deterioration does not wait.

Leaving deteriorated waterproofing layers or exterior walls unrepaired allows damage to progress into the substrate and structural frame, potentially leading to additional repairs that would otherwise have been unnecessary. Moreover, if work halts after scaffolding is erected, invisible burdens accumulate—resident communication, neighbor coordination, schedule revisions, and cost increases.

What's important is not rushing into contracts. It's about verifying whether the current repair plan is truly feasible under the present material supply conditions.

Sanzin Rebuild Works' Two Preparedness Strategies

① Early Construction Through Advance Securing of Waterproofing Materials

Sanzin Rebuild Works can assess the feasibility of securing waterproofing materials in advance and initiating early construction for projects matching site conditions and specifications.

Areas related to waterproofing—such as roof waterproofing, balcony waterproofing, common corridors, staircases, and eaves—are high-priority maintenance items. Under supply risks, it's crucial not only to consider the entire building at once but also to prioritize waterproofing work based on the degree of deterioration.

Waterproofing work comes with an industry-leading 10-year warranty. *Warranty is subject to regular inspections and maintenance as per company regulations. For details on warranty terms and conditions, please inquire.

This is Sanzin Rebuild Works' fundamental principle: ensuring construction continuity even under supply risks.

Before delaying construction decisions, it's essential to first assess on-site risks.

Sanzin Rebuild Works proposes paint-independent exterior wall repairs by combining special cleaning, the JFP method, and Coatner (self-bonding titanium oxide) based on the building's condition.

The JFP method is a next-generation exterior repair technique that fixes loose tiles and reduces the risk of detachment. By removing residual water and cutting dust during application, it ensures stable repair quality and protects the building's aesthetics and asset value.

Additionally, Coatner can be combined as an option for exterior protection and aesthetic maintenance.

② An Alternative: Exterior Repairs Not Dependent on Repainting

For exterior repairs, full repainting is not the only option.

Sanzin Rebuild Works proposes paint-independent exterior repair solutions by combining special cleaning, the JFP method, and Coatner (self-bonding titanium oxide) tailored to the building's condition.

After assessing wall dirt, tile surfaces, substrate conditions, existing finishes, and signs of deterioration, a combination of cleaning, repair, and protective coating can be designed—creating a repair plan less vulnerable to paint supply fluctuations.

Statement from President Yuichi Seki

"We are receiving increasing inquiries such as 'We can't predict material delivery dates and are worried about whether we can proceed as planned.' What customers truly want isn't something extraordinary. They simply want their planned repairs completed as scheduled and to their satisfaction.

To achieve this, it's essential to calmly assess available materials, prioritize necessary work, and identify alternative methods. We aim to present options that allow building maintenance to continue uninterrupted, even under supply risks, through preparedness in material procurement and construction methods.

Our role is not to amplify anxiety, but to provide accurate situation assessments and decision-making support."
