About us
Taiko Construction Inc. has specialized in the construction of traditional Japanese wooden structures such as shrines and temples since 1959, and based on the principles and traditional techniques inherited from our predecessors.
In shrine and temple construction, all the loads are dispersed by using girders, beams, Masu-gumi, Ko-ryo, and Tabasami in order to bear the total weight of hundreds or thousands of tons of roof.
We will continue to contribute to society by incorporating traditional techniques, construction methods, and knowledge, and by continuing to focus on the fragrance, warmth, and innumerable qualities of wood, while helping our clients to create their dreams, and by improving our techniques and building relationships of trust.
Our Works
In modern residential construction, many materials are produced in factories, which means craftsmen have few opportunities to exploit their skills that have been passed down from generations. However, we believe that traditional architectures and cultural assets created by craftsmen need to be continued in order to provide opportunities for young apprentices to pass on their skills.
Traditional carpenters craft and position posts, beams and joists individually, and finish the ceilings, alcove posts, thresholds and coping in the same way to create the flamework of the buildings. Decorations on shrines and temples are carved according to these same principles.
Traditional plasterers use bamboo grids as a base to allow the plaster surface to breathe. This technique has become rare due to the development of modern exterior wall materials and wallpapers, but it is essential to master plastering.
Joinery workers also play an important role, as aluminum frames were not used in traditional architectures.
In order to preserve these traditional techniques, we believe it is extremely important for young apprentices to participate in the actual construction work at shrines, temples and tea houses.
