Services
Cement Rendering
Cement rendering involves applying a durable sand-and-cement mixture to uneven surfaces, ideal for restoring older properties. This method smooths imperfections and provides a robust finish, particularly suited to exterior walls exposed to harsh weather. Our team ensures precise application to maintain structural integrity and longevity.
Acrylic Rendering
Acrylic rendering offers a flexible, weather-resistant finish with decorative texture options. We apply stainless steel reinforcement and high-strength flexi patch for durability, making it ideal for fences and exterior surfaces. This method ensures aesthetic uniformity while resisting cracking and fading in Melbourne's climate.
Internal Hard Plaster
Internal hard plaster (white set) creates a flawless finish on uneven double-brick walls. This cement-based solution avoids issues like plasterboard delamination in high heat, providing a durable base for painting. Its ideal for older homes requiring a seamless interior finish.
Heritage Plastering
Heritage plastering restores historical properties using traditional techniques and materials. We match original finishes to preserve architectural integrity while ensuring durability. This service is tailored to older homes needing meticulous attention to detail and compliance with heritage standards.
Polystyrene Systems
Polystyrene systems combine insulation with rendering, improving energy efficiency and durability. We install 50100mm polystyrene boards before applying render, ideal for modernising exteriors. This method reduces heating and cooling costs while enhancing structural protection.
