Before you render in Newtown
What changes a rendering job here, each from the council plan, heritage register or data sheet it comes from.
Council
King Street is the council line
King Street divides Newtown between Inner West Council and the City of Sydney. On the Sydney side, the DCP says existing face brick and stone walls in conservation areas are not to be coated, rendered or painted; on the Inner West side, the Marrickville DCP has its own controls.

Heritage
North Kingston Estate workers' cottages
The North Kingston Estate conservation area has densely settled 19th century workers' cottages and terraces, including rare weatherboard cottages. Original render on these must be kept and repaired in lime, not replaced in cement.
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.”
