Renovations · Northcote 3070
Northcote renovations balance restoring period features, like ceilings, fireplaces and timber floors, with modern bathrooms, layouts and services.
Northcote has Victorian, Edwardian and interwar homes on established streets, many within heritage overlays, and a busy High Street.
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
Victorian and Edwardian homes need builders who understand period construction.
Many Northcote streets are under heritage overlays managed by Darebin Council. We check before quoting.
Some Northcote streets are on slopes, which affects design, footings and drainage.
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 Darebin City Council. We tell you exactly what's needed at your consultation.
