Renovations · Brunswick 3056
Brunswick terraces and cottages often need more than a cosmetic update. Old wiring, failing stumps, rising damp and tired lean-to bathrooms are common. We fix what's underneath first, then renovate the spaces, keeping the period character that makes these homes worth owning.
Brunswick is dominated by Victorian terraces and workers' cottages on narrow lots, many within heritage overlays, alongside newer apartment developments around Sydney Road and the train lines.
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.
Local Knowledge
Many Brunswick blocks are narrow, with shared walls or boundary walls. Access, neighbour protection and boundary construction need careful planning.
Large parts of Brunswick are covered by heritage overlays managed by Merri-bek Council. Changes visible from the street are controlled, so we design with that in mind.
Brunswick is a short drive from our Coburg North base, so we can be on site often throughout your build.
What's Included
We manage your renovation from the first consultation to handover, so you deal with one team, not a string of trades.
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.



Questions
It depends on the work. Structural changes, re-stumping and some plumbing work usually need a building permit, while cosmetic work often doesn't. If your home is under a heritage overlay, external changes may need a planning permit from Merri-bek City Council. We tell you exactly what's needed at your consultation.
