西川総合建設 Company Profile

We are a company that corrects the tilting of buildings and structures, as well as ground subsidence. We can make corrections to buildings, structures, stores, and temples and shrines.

Founded during the Meiji era, we started as a scaffolding business. During World War I and World War II, we worked on repairs of bombed railways and bridges, as well as infrastructure projects. After the war, we dedicated ourselves to the reconstruction of the country, and in 1948, we carried out numerous repairs and relocations of houses during the recovery efforts following the Fukui earthquake. We also contributed to recovery work during the 2007 Niigata Prefecture Chuetsu-Oki earthquake and assisted with ground measures for nuclear reactors. Currently, we specialize in house relocation work, building subsidence correction, ground subsidence measures (utilizing house relocation technology to allow for construction even after new builds or renovations), comprehensive civil engineering and construction, ground improvement and investigation services, and heavy object relocation. In renovation projects, we assess the necessary work for buildings and propose optimal construction solutions. Our work in the repair of shrines, temples, and cultural properties has been highly regarded, and we have received numerous letters of appreciation. In recent years, we have carried out house relocation work for the major restoration of the Mieido Hall at the World Heritage Site, Nishi Honganji in Kyoto, and also completed object relocation work at the World Heritage Site, Kamigamo Shrine in Kyoto. Our company conducts comprehensive operations based on the rich experience and technical skills cultivated over many years of history.
