Extensions · Fairfield 3078
Fairfield extensions usually keep a Federation or Edwardian frontage intact and add modern living at the rear, or a carefully designed second storey where controls allow.
Fairfield is a leafy suburb of Edwardian, Federation and interwar homes on established streets near the Yarra River and Darebin Creek.
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
Substantial period homes call for quality craftsmanship and period detailing.
Parts of Fairfield are under heritage overlays managed by Darebin Council.
Mature trees may need protection or permits during construction, and we plan for it.
What's Included
We manage your extension from the first consultation to handover, so you deal with one team, not a string of trades.
Extensions typically take between 6 weeks and 6 months on site, depending on size, and whether you're going out or up. We give you a detailed schedule at your consultation.



Questions
Almost all extensions need a building permit. Some also need a planning permit from Darebin City Council, for example where a heritage overlay applies or depending on your lot and zoning. We check your property's controls before quoting and manage the permits for you.
