What changes a rendering job here, each from the council plan, heritage register or data sheet it comes from.

  1. Heritage

    Springdale and other areas

    Parts of Killara are in conservation areas, with Springdale the largest and Greengate Estate, Crown Blocks and Lynwood Avenue among the others. Ku-ring-gai's DCP says unpainted brick in them is not to be rendered, coated or painted.

    For your render: We check your address against these rules before quoting, so the render, finish and colour suit what the council allows there. Cement rendering

  2. Houses

    Intact Federation and Inter-war houses

    Council's statement credits Springdale with a high number of intact Federation and Inter-war buildings, including Queen Anne, Arts and Crafts and Californian Bungalow styles. Removing later paint from face brick is encouraged there.

  • “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.”
