Before you render in Woolloomooloo
What changes a rendering job here, each from the council plan, heritage register or data sheet it comes from.
Heritage
Woolloomooloo heritage area
Most of the suburb is the Woolloomooloo heritage conservation area. The Sydney DCP says existing face brick and stone walls there are not to be rendered 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
Houses
Modest Victorian terraces
The listing describes surviving rows of modest Victorian terraces from 1850 to 1880, mostly around the edges of the area, alongside hotels and remnant warehouses.
Coast
Harbour-side cleaning
Woolloomooloo's harbour edge is within 100 m of salt water. Close to the sea, Rockcote asks for its systems to be cleaned down every 12 months and for paintwork and textured finishes to be cleaned more often. Polystyrene cladding needs Class 4 or 316 stainless steel screws, as Unitex specifies.

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.”
