Before you render in Lane Cove West
What changes a rendering job here, each from the council plan, heritage register or data sheet it comes from.
Bush fire
Bush fire prone land
Parts of Lane Cove West are mapped bush fire prone, mostly Category 2 vegetation and buffer. On those lots, exempt re-rendering must be ember-sealed with equal or better materials, and EPS needs a tested BAL build-up.
For your render: On bush fire prone land the render or cladding system has to suit the block's bush fire attack level (BAL), with gaps sealed against embers. Polystyrene cladding

Coast
Cladding near the river
Some blocks are within 100 m of the Lane Cove River. If you are adding polystyrene cladding on one of them, Unitex's manual calls for Class 4 or 316 stainless screws.

Heritage
A few listed houses
A few houses are listed items. A DA for one of these, or for the house next door, needs a heritage impact statement under Lane Cove's DCP.
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

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.”
