Before you render in St Ives
What changes a rendering job here, each from the council plan, heritage register or data sheet it comes from.
Heritage
Pettit & Sevitt project homes
St Ives has no conservation area, but several Pettit & Sevitt project homes and an estate are listed items. Re-rendering or recolouring one of them needs Ku-ring-gai's consent and a materials board.
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
Source: Ku-ring-gai LEP 2015, Schedule 5 (Pettit & Sevitt homes)
Bush fire
Mostly bush fire prone
Much of St Ives is mapped bush fire prone. Exempt re-rendering there must be ember-sealed (Codes SEPP cl 2.54(c)), and EPS needs a BAL-tested system.
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

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.”
