Hello everyone, this is DIY Renova.
If you are looking for a workspace or rental space for DIY work in the Kanto region, you may need it.
In the Kanto region, there are quite a few workshops that can be used for residential DIY (large woodworking OK), so I'll pick up a few by type.
If you're wondering "How much renovation or remodeling can I actually do on my own home?" or "Where should I even start?", please visit this page. If you're looking to learn more about specific renovation processes or construction details, don't miss this page as well!

How should I choose?
If you want to use it for home DIY, it will be easier to choose based on the following image:
- I really want to make something big (tables, counters, fixtures)
→ Everyone loves DIY woodwork. / Sakai Lumber Store Tsukurunbee / Nakahara Kobo - Even if you are a single woman, you want to feel safe and seek advice on housing.
→ DIY Studio L (Women only, operated by a remodeling company) - For now, I want to process materials I bought at a home center nearby.
→ Cainz Kobo/Konan D.I.Y LABO - Furniture + I want to try some digital processing / I want to touch metal too
→ Asakusabashi Workshop/Workshop Altair
Points you should check before going
Each place has different rules, so before booking:
- Is it OK to bring in materials? / Can I only buy in-store?
- What size can be processed (length/thickness)?
- Conditions for use of dangerous work (circular saw, welding, etc.) (Is training required?)
- Is work for residential DIY (pillar/joist-sized materials, bulk cutting of plywood, etc.) prohibited?
It's safe to just check the website or phone.
