Renovations · Williamstown 3016
Renovating a Williamstown period home means restoring its character, upgrading bathrooms, layouts and services, and choosing finishes that suit the coastal environment.
Williamstown is one of Melbourne's oldest suburbs, with Victorian and Edwardian homes, extensive heritage overlays, and coastal conditions near the bay.
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
Much of Williamstown is under heritage overlays managed by Hobsons Bay Council.
Salt air and wind near the bay affect material choices, from fixings to cladding and finishes.
Old homes need builders who understand period structure and detailing.
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 Hobsons Bay City Council. We tell you exactly what's needed at your consultation.
