| 121 Turning vision into distinctive, high-end homes 18A & 18B Roy Street. Palmerston North building company Wayne Duncan Builders is the choice of champions and over the last four years have been integral in bringing new investment properties to market in Palmerston North, including for Femi Adesanya, father of UFC champion, Israel Adesanya. Licensed Building Practitioner and member of Certified Builders, Wayne Duncan and his build team specialise in new builds, renovation and extension and light commercial projects across Manawatu, Horowhenua, Tararua and Rangitikei. Over the past four years, Wayne Duncan Builders have delivered four high-end, two-storey rentals for the Adesanya family, having collaborated with Femi on several of his developments. Nigerian- New Zealand mixed martial artist, Israel has his own multi-million-dollar T T Bernadette Cooney property portfolio nationwide which includes his self-named subdivision at Adesayna Close on Lowestoft Place and other subdivisions on Fitzherbert Ave, Palmerston North and another in Whanganui. “It’s been an honour to build for the Adesayna family,” says Wayne. “We mostly collaborate with Femi on his Palmerston North properties, clearing homes on existing sections and creating four, two-storey, investment properties.” The three-bedroom, two-bathroom homes across two levels, feature dual living areas and spacious layouts. The innovative exterior cladding is a Japanese fibre-cement product that resembles cedar timber but offers greater durability. “With his first build, we were the second ones in the Manawatu to use a mix of brick and Cemental, the fibre cement product which looks like cedar timber. It gives Adesanya’s properties a distinctive, high-end finish,” he says.

Wayne Duncan Builders has successfully completed a diverse range of projects in recent times including an extension to a century old, two storey villa in Hokowhitu. The top floor was extended out to be level with the bottom floor and required significant engineering and steel work, but the resulting addition blended seamlessly with the original home. Wayne also serves as the Refurbishment Project Manager for Ryman Healthcare overseeing refurbishments at their Manawatu villages for more than a decade. In the realm of light commercial, the company also converted an existing building into a thriving daycare centre for Little Acorns, later expanding the upstairs into a second facility as demand grew. From office fit-outs to constructing a spray booth inside a workshop, Wayne Duncan Builders have the expertise to complete it all. The company includes an in-house interior designer who can assist with kitchen and interior design, including fabric and colour choices. Wayne believes his company’s edge is its personalised service. “We’ve made some good friendships with our customers and aim for trust and connection on every project.”
