118 | Getting the best result for clients As project manager for a 14-townhouse development at 135 Lincoln Road, Moon Home is overseeing the construction of double-storey units, each around 110sqm with three bedrooms and two bathrooms. Moon Home T T Karen Phelps “It’s on a busy road, constructed in five blocks on a 2000sqm site. It’s a great location and has been an easy build.” BUILDING Moon Home, founded by Zhang Dong in 2020, is quickly establishing itself as a go-to firm for those with a keen eye on budget efficiency and seeking quality builds in Christchurch. A background in quantity surveying and studies in preliminary architectural design have given Zhang a comprehensive understanding of the construction process from multiple angles. “This means I know how to get a good result for my clients, achieving a lot more for the same budget,” he says. A current project Moon Home is working on, offering on-the-ground expertise to Auckland-based client, Sunshine Group, showcases the company’s growing capabilities. As project manager for a 14-townhouse development at 135 Lincoln Road, Moon Home is overseeing the construction of double-storey units, each around 110sqm with three bedrooms and two bathrooms, and clad in a mix of Rockcote external plastering system and BGC cement board. “It’s on a busy road, constructed in five blocks on a 2000sqm site. It’s a great location and has been an easy build.” The Lincoln Rd project, due for completion at the end of the year, represents a step up for Moon Home, which typically handles projects of 10 units or less. Zhang’s handson approach is evident in his daily site visits, ensuring quality control and timely progress. “I am on site every day, keeping a check on quality to ensure a great result for the client,” he says. Moon Home also builds for private clients that simply want a stand-alone home, and undertakes its own small development projects. The company has purchased land with plans for a stand-alone home in Halswell and a future project in Rolleston. What sets Moon Home apart is its comprehensive service offering, says Zhang. The company can assist clients from start to finish, leveraging its in-house design team and Zhang’s quantity surveying firm, DNF Quantity Surveying, established in 2017. “At DNF Quantity Surveying, we understand the importance of precise cost estimation and effective project control. Our team of highly skilled quantity surveyors utilises advanced techniques and industry-leading software to meticulously analyse and evaluate project costs, ensuring optimal financial management throughout the construction process. This dual expertise in construction and quantity surveying gives Moon Home a unique edge in the market.” Moon Home’s commitment to quality is reflected in its workforce. With a core team of seven to eight builders and a network of trusted contractors, Moon Home ensures consistent standards across all its projects, says Zhang. Zhang’s membership in the New Zealand Institute of Quantity Surveyors (NZIQS) further underscores the company’s professional standing. Zhang plans steady growth while maintaining the company’s high standards. “It’s important that every job we do the clients are happy,” he says. “We are proud we have a lot of word-of-mouth referral from satisfied clients.” With its unique blend of construction expertise and cost-management skills, Zhang says Moon Home is pleased to offer a compelling proposition for anyone looking to build their dream home or invest in property development in Christchurch.
