Your renovation in Fawkner

We renovate Fawkner homes from top to bottom, including layout changes, bathrooms, laundries, flooring, electrical and insulation. It brings older homes up to modern standards without the cost of building new.

Fawkner is largely post-war housing on generous suburban blocks, with a steady mix of original homes, renovated homes and new builds.

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.
