Welcome To Novastar Homes
About Us
Novastar Homes was built on a simple belief: the right transformation done well, doesn't cost money - it creates it. It isn't an expense, but an investment. It doesn't just improve your home - it builds your wealth.
We're a North-West based team of staging, refurbishment and restoration specialists who work with homeowners, landlords and property investors to turn under-performing properties into high-value assets. We started Novastar Homes as the solution to a common problem - property owners with real potential in their hands and no one offering a straight answer about how to unlock it.
Our work spans full property refurbishments, expert home staging, furniture restoration, cosmetic repair and serviced accomodation set up - and we bring the same standard to every project, regardless of size.
Our Business
Our flag ship project tells you everything you need to know about how we work.
A two bedroom property in Wigan, Lancashire was generating £495.00 per month as a standard rental. We carried out a full refurbishment and staged it for the serviced accommodation market - It became the highest-rated serviced accomodation property in the town and now generates £2,700.00 per month. When independently valued 3 years later, the property itself had tripled in value. That's not a one-off, that's our approach.
Whether you're sitting on a tired rental, preparing a home for sale, or considering the move into serviced accomodation, the gap between where your property is and what it's genuinely capable of is usually smaller than you think.
Our Values
We don't overcomplicate things. You'll get a straight conversation, a clear quote and a realistic picture of what your property can achieve. No vague estimates. No moving goalposts.
We restore before we replace. Our default position is to save you money wherever we can. If it can be repaired, refinished or repurposed to a high standard, that's always our first recommendation. This approach alone can save our clients thousands.
We treat your property like an investment, not a project. Every decision we make on-site - every material, lay-out choice and finish - is made with your end result in mind. We stay in constant contact from initial consultation through to completion so you always know where your project stands.
