Your renovation in Coburg

Coburg homes often have good bones but tired interiors: original bathrooms, closed-off kitchens and dated layouts. We renovate with respect for the period features you want to keep, like ceilings, fireplaces and timber floors, and modernise everything else.

Coburg has a real mix: Victorian and Edwardian cottages near Sydney Road, Californian bungalows and interwar brick homes through the middle streets, and post-war houses on bigger blocks further north.

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

Building in Coburg

Our home suburb

NMB Homes is based in Coburg North, so Coburg jobs are minutes from our office. That means quicker site visits and easier day-to-day supervision.

Mixed housing

Period cottages, bungalows and post-war homes each need a different approach to structure, stumps and services. We plan for it from the first visit.

Heritage overlays

Parts of Coburg are under heritage overlays managed by Merri-bek Council. We check your address before quoting, so permit requirements are known up front.

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.
