About Thorne Carpentry in Oxford & Oxfordshire
Thorne Carpentry was founded by Daniel Thorne, a carpenter by trade with a passion for high-end structural transformations.
After spending nearly a decade honing his craft at one of the UK’s largest loft conversion firms in London, Daniel returned to his roots in West Oxford to offer homeowners a more bespoke, specialist service.
Large-Scale Expertise, Local Specialist Care
Daniel completed his apprenticeship and worked for over eight years at Rooftop Rooms, a major industry leader known for managing dozens of complex loft projects simultaneously. While that experience provided him with world-class technical knowledge—from structural steel measuring to intricate roof fitting—Daniel saw an opportunity to do things differently.
At Thorne Carpentry, we provide the same comprehensive “start-to-finish” service as the national firms but on a much more personalised level. When you choose us, you aren’t just another project in a queue; you are working directly with the specialist who is responsible for the integrity and finish of your home.
Our 4 Core Commitments to You
We believe that transparency and craftsmanship should go hand-in-hand.
Direct Communication
You will always have a direct line to Daniel via our WhatsApp "halfway house," ensuring you are never left in the dark about your project’s progress.
Trade-Qualified Precision
Because we are carpenters first, we bring a level of detail to your internal joinery—stairs, doors, and architraves—that general building firms often miss.
Start-to-Finish Management
We take full responsibility for your loft conversion, from coordinating architectural drawings and planning permissions to the final structural fit.
Local Dedication
We are proud to live and work in West Oxford, focusing our efforts within a 1-hour radius to ensure our clients receive the dedicated attention they deserve.
Trusted Across Oxfordshire
Based in Leafield, Witney, we are proud to serve homeowners across the entire Oxfordshire region. Whether we are fitting a single Velux window or managing a full-scale structural loft conversion, our goal remains the same: to deliver exceptional space and quality that stands the test of time.
