The Render My Home Promise

8/1/2014

| Homeowners | Contractor | Builders | Quote | Building Industry | Reputation | Greater Value For Money |
The biggest concern homeowners like you have when it comes to choosing their contractor is the risk and uncertainty of having to make a decision that will deliver a successful outcome, ie, a completely stress-free experience, value for money and a job to be proud of.

The building industry is synonymous for being full of contractors and builders who constantly fail to deliver on key areas such as customer service and quality workmanship. Even more disappointing (but true) is that many lack basic personal qualities such as courtesy, integrity and reliability.   

It is important for you to understand that the ‘true cost’ of a job is not necessarily the number that appears on the quotation or invoice for you to pay at the end of the job. There are ongoing costs associated with cheaper products and services that will increase not only the amount of money you need to continually pay for years to come, but also the amount of time, stress, inconvenience and anxiety you will need to deal with in having to restore, repair and/or replace these items.

When making a decision on which contractor to engage, your objective should be to minimise the amount of risk, you as the customer are exposed to. Have I been given the best possible advice on this product? What happens if the contractor does not do what he promises? What happens if the work is faulty and as a result has affected other areas and items? What can I do if I realise at a later date that the contractor mislead me by carrying out the work defectively?

Reputable companies that are highly regarded amongst their industry peers will initially appear more expensive in comparison to other quotes, but the closer you examine the conditions and take into consideration the whole value factor, you will realise that these companies have built their reputations through delivering consistent excellence and commitment towards achieving total customer satisfaction, and will deliver you a better service that will result in greater value for money – no doubt about it!

The ‘Render My Home’ promise to you is this…

Whilst we may not always be the cheapest quote, we will guarantee that our companies’ services will provide you greater value for money than any other competitor.

What Does It Cost To Render My Home?

Rendering your home completely changes the appearance and character of your home.

It is a great opportunity for you to consider upgrading other surrounding elements of your home to balance out the impact the rendering will make for your home. Carefully consider all of your options to do with balustrading, handrails, guttering, roof, front door and windows.

Lighting, in particular wall lights make a huge impact on accentuating the best parts of a rendered home, as does landscaping. And of course getting your colour scheme right is what brings everything together.

When considering to render your home, your objective should be to maximise its overall impact, as in its street appeal. And to do this you need to treat the exercise as you would any other project.

So as you can see, the cost of rendering is simply not just about a square metre rate. Sure, the rendering component can be quoted as such, but this is very risky to you the consumer, as the emphasis for the contractor then becomes a race to finish the job as quickly as possible to maximise his profit, and more often than not the quality of the job suffers. This sadly happens all the time.

Another important factor in relation to the cost of rendering your home is that there are many different applications of render being used everyday in Sydney. Traditional cement render, polymer modified render, acrylic render, plaster and marble wall finishes etc, as well as new products emerging onto the market all of the time. These are often use in conjunction with each other to deliver a desired finish to a home.

So depending on what system you wish to have applied to your home, the cost varies greatly. We have rendered a home for as little as $4000, that being the most basic of all render systems, and have rendered a home for $580K dollars. It really depends on the size of your home, the system and the amount of details required.

Will Rendering My Home Increase The Value Of My Home?

The short answer is yes. Rendering your home does many things to the appearance of your home apart from dramatically changing it that will result in an increased sale price, assuming you were rendering your home specifically for this purpose.

Firstly, it conceals the material that your home is built from whether that be face brick, concrete or some other type of material, i.e. sheeting or cladding. This can be helpful if the brickwork of your home is unattractive, old  or out-dated. 

By rendering your home you have now concealed the real age of your home and have made the home appear more modern. Rendered homes are always in vogue. Driving through the more established and prestigious suburbs of any capital city in Australia will support that statement.

It provides to any home an elegant look that can be presented as either a traditional or heritage style look, or as a modern masterpiece, sleek and sharp. However it is often the other elements to your home that can really accentuate these themes, especially with things such as lighting, colour schemes, external fixtures and landscaping.

By rendering your home you can improve the street appeal of your home and in turn increase the value of your home. If a home is considered attractive and appealing, it will result in greater attention and demand. And this translates into increased value.

| Cement Rendering Products | Render | Paint | Texture Coatings | Dulux Acratex | Warranty System | 
As with any product we wish to buy, we all want the best. Having the best doesn’t usually mean it is the cheapest, but it does mean that it is the best.

When you research the products and suppliers in the render, paints and textures field, there is clearly only one product or brand that stands head and shoulders above all of the others.

Good reputations in the building industry are difficult to come by. The Dulux Acratex range of renders, textures and paints are simply the best performing products available. And Dulux are prepared to back this by their warranty system offers. 

The reason they are better than the others is that the research and development carried out by Dulux Acratex on these products is second to none. The testing and research is more thorough and more stringent and it is for this reason they can fully back the performance of their products when applied by an accredited applicator.

Ultimately, you as the consumer benefit because if a product performs better, it also lasts longer. Getting an extra five years out of a quality system such as Dulux Acratex, gives you massive savings over your lifetime.

Render My Home use only Dulux Acratex on our projects, because they are simply the best.

Outdoor Building Renovations

Wow! How about this property market of ours? Sydney is going gangbusters with real estate activity at an all-time high! Low interest rates, a new government, summer on its way… Bring it on!

It was interesting to catch up with our good friends last weekend after they spent a whole day house hunting in our local area. They had set out in the morning with a list of 11 properties to look at that had initially appealed to them on an internet search.

However, upon arriving to the properties one by one, they decided to walk into only six of them to make their inspection, but not even bother with the other five. Why? 

Well, according to them (and in their own words), ‘they looked crap!’. Unappealing, run down, too much work needed, generally not attractive enough to even warrant any further inspection… Gee, that’s very disappointing.

So it got my mind thinking about how many other prospective buyers felt exactly the same way and did exactly the same thing that same weekend, and drove right past the property because of its lack of street appeal.

And what if the seller had actually put some thought into better presenting their home to better attract potential home buyers, rather than have them drive right by as a result of feeling let down?

And more importantly I guess, what effect would this have on the final result with respect to the eventual sale price? Could a higher price have been achieved with just a little more thought and consideration put into the home’s exterior appearance.

I mean, after all, if the exterior appearance of the home is not appealing enough, then there is no reason for a prospective buyer to park their car, get out and proceed to the front door.

The inside of the home could be a hidden treasure with a newly renovated and well-designed kitchen, designer bathrooms, an amazing rear decking with outdoor entertainment areas, but without any curb side appeal from the street front, the seller misses out completely on the opportunity with this particular buyer.

Remember, it is only the simple things that can often increase the street appeal of your home. Minor adjustments can provide truckloads of character to your home, and will have car loads of prospective buyers expressing interest in your home and in turn, nudging the sale price way up beyond your expectations.
