Sydney is the capital of New South Wales. Say where the house is, and if the render is new or a repair.

Good questions.

What details help with a job in Sydney?

Tell us the job type, your suburb and a few lines about the work. Say how many walls or ceilings, new work or repairs, and when you want it done.

Can cracked render be repaired?

Often, yes. Small cracks can be patched. Wide or many cracks can mean the render must come off. Someone must see it.

What are the licence rules for a plasterer in New South Wales?

In New South Wales, many trades need a contractor licence for home work above a set value. Building Commission NSW has the rules for each trade. Check before the work starts.
