Nomac Built was founded by Tom and Zak - two Hobart builders with over a decade of experience each.
After years working for other companies, we saw a gap in the market: clients were often left in the dark, plans lacked detail, and quality was hit-and-miss.
So, we set out to build a company where clarity, communication, and craftsmanship come standard.
Whether it’s a small renovation or a full new build, we take pride in doing things properly and earning the trust of every client we work with.

When you work with Nomac Built, you deal directly with the guys on the tools - not just a salesperson.
We manage your project from the initial consult through to completion, ensuring nothing gets lost in translation.
With over 20 years of combined experience across everything from bathroom renos to large extensions, we bring practical knowledge and local insight to every job.
We know the local trades, codes, and conditions, and how to get results.
We’re not about quick jobs and moving on.
We aim to build long-term relationships based on trust, transparency, and solid work.
For us, the best feedback is when a client calls us back for their next project.
At Nomac Built, we're more than just builders, we're a hands-on team who genuinely care about the work we do and the people we do it for.
Founded by Tom and Zak, we bring over 20 years of combined experience in construction, project management, and delivering high-quality finishes.
From first consult to final handover, you'll work directly with us - the same people quoting, managing, and building your project.
It’s this consistency, transparency and attention to detail that sets the Nomac team apart.

Most of it as a foreman, he brings a sharp eye for quality and a deep understanding of cost-effective, high-performance construction. He’s also skilled in both timber and steel builds. A father of three, Tom spends his downtime golfing or exploring Tassie’s best tracks in his 4WD.

From retail hardware to the tools, then on to supervising, estimating and project management. His obsession with delivering exceptional results and high-level communication is at the heart of Nomac Built. A proud dad of two and a volunteer firefighter, Zak brings leadership, attention to detail, and genuine care to every project.
Yes. One of our strengths is transparency. If you've received a quote elsewhere and you're unsure about what's included (or missing), we're happy to help you review it. We've seen too many clients caught off guard by vague or incomplete quotes, and we'd rather help you make a confident decision than watch you get stung by something that should have been spelled out from the start. This applies whether you're comparing quotes for a bathroom renovation, a home extension, or a custom new build. Scope and inclusions vary a lot between builders, and the detail matters.
No plans yet is a very normal starting point, particularly for new builds and extensions. We can recommend designers and drafts people we've worked with and trust, or collaborate with whoever you've already engaged. The earlier we're involved, the more useful we can be - we often pick up practical issues at the planning stage that would have cost time and money to fix once building started. Whether you're working up ideas for a custom home build or a home extension, we're happy to have that early conversation.
Yes, we handle all the subcontractors for your project. We coordinate a trusted group of local trades who share our focus on quality and reliability - plumbers, electricians, tilers, and everyone in between. You won't need to chase anyone or manage sequencing. That's our job, and keeping trades moving efficiently is one of the biggest factors in keeping your project on time and on budget.
Absolutely. It’s your home, so your preferences come first. We’ll guide you through trusted suppliers, help shortlist options, and offer advice if needed, but the final say is always yours. From tap ware for a bathrooom renovation to tiles, we’ll help you select finishes that match your vision and budget.
It depends on the scope and complexity of your project. A bathroom renovation typically takes 3 to 5 weeks on site. A home extension will generally run between 8 and 20 weeks depending on size and structural requirements. A custom new build is a longer commitment - most run between 6 and 18 months from breaking ground, depending on design complexity, approvals, and site conditions. Whatever the project, we provide a realistic schedule before work starts so you always know what's happening and when.
It really depends on the scope, complexity, and materials involved. Every project is different, but what doesn’t change is how we quote. We provide clear, detailed, and visual quotes that outline exactly what’s included, so you’re never left guessing. Whether it’s a bathroom renovation or a full home extension, you’ll always know where your money’s going and why.
It depends on the job, but our quotes are clear and visual, so you always know what you’re paying for.
