🌟 TEAM SPOTLIGHT: Meet Our Apprentice Carpenters 🪚
🔨 THE FUTURE OF THE TRADIE INDUSTRY: Meet Our 1st year Apprentice Carpenter, Owen🪵
We’re excited to introduce the newest apprentice here at SP THORNE HOMES — Owen, our 1st-year apprentice carpenter.
Owen’s passion for building started early, and he’s already proving himself with a keen eye for detail and a willingness to learn from the best. Whether it’s measuring up, cutting with precision, or lending a hand on-site, he’s always ready to pitch in with a smile.
We can’t wait to see his skills grow and watch him turn raw timber into something truly special. We’re glad to have you on the crew Owen! 👷♂️
We asked Owen what it's like learning the trade on our sites:
👉 What’s the most rewarding thing you’ve learned so far? – Getting taught anything in the fix out stage because it’s the final stage that the customer will see forever.
👉 What is your most used tool on-site right now? – Tape measure
👉 What’s your survival tip for surviving a busy week on the tools? – Getting to bed at a reasonable hour
👉 What do you look forward to doing on the weekends? – Catching up with mates or going to the beach
