Your renovation in Brunswick East

Brunswick East period homes often need structural work underneath: re-stumping, rewiring and damp fixes. We do that first, then renovate while keeping the period character.

Brunswick East is mostly Victorian and Edwardian cottages and terraces on narrow lots, with plenty of new apartment buildings along the main roads.

NMB Homes is a second-generation family builder based in Coburg North. We've been building in Melbourne's inner north and inner west since 1993, under fixed-price contracts, with Ninos personally involved in every job.

What's Included

One builder, start to finish

We manage your renovation from the first consultation to handover, so you deal with one team, not a string of trades.

  • Design and layout planning
  • Permits where your project needs them
  • Structural changes, wall removals and re-stumping coordination
  • Bathrooms, laundries and living areas
  • Plumbing, electrical, flooring and finishes
  • A fixed-price contract and one point of contact

Renovations typically take between 6 weeks and 6 months, depending on scope. We give you a detailed schedule at your consultation, so you know when each room will be back in use.
