Before you render in Dover Heights
What changes a rendering job here, each from the council plan, heritage register or data sheet it comes from.
Coast
Cliff-top sea air
Dover Heights is within 1 km of breaking surf on the cliffs. Rockcote asks for its render systems to be cleaned down every 12 months, and for painted or textured finishes close to the coast to be cleaned more regularly. For polystyrene cladding, Unitex specifies Class 4 or 316 stainless steel fixing screws.

Houses
Inter-War and 1950s houses
The heritage items here include Inter-War Art Deco and Functionalist houses, a 1930s Moderne house and a group of 1950s houses. Waverley's Inter-War controls say not to paint or render face brick and to keep original textured render.

Reviews
What our clients say
Courteous, tidy, protected the area from debris, cleaned up after and a good job
“Very professional and so helpful! Good communication and a fair price! Arrived nice and early! The rendering was done very well and looks great. The boys were very careful and made no mess! I have no hesitation in recommending Ali and his workers! I am definitely a very happy customer! Job: rear of house rendering plus a variety of rendering repairs in various places! Thank you so much!”
★★★★★Gregory Williams · “We loved dealing with Ali and his team. They are all lovely and really good renderers. We wanted something a little different (a thickly applied splattered style) in some parts of the house,”bagged” in other areas and smooth render in other parts…all was no problem, and expertly done. All fairly priced too. We would definitely recommend Finishing Touch Rendering. Stephanie and David.”
