Carpenters and Joiners in South Devon

Handcrafted timber work in South Devon, made to measure, built to last, and tailored for homes, gardens, and businesses.

At Crystal Woods, we bring over 25 years of hands-on experience in carpentry and joinery to every project we create across South Devon. From bespoke oak-framed gazebos, oak porches to solid wood staircases, we design, make, and fit each piece with care and precision.

Our work blends traditional craftsmanship with a modern eye for design, shaping hard and softwood timber into practical, beautiful features for your home and garden. Whether it’s an oak-framed structure, a handmade door, or a garden room filled with light, we craft everything in our Dartmoor workshop and fit it ourselves, ensuring every detail feels solid, seamless, and built to last.

Where carpentry and joinery in Devon meet

Many of our projects bring carpentry and joinery together. From greenhouses and summerhouses to conservatories, garden rooms, and oak porches, we make and fit every part, from the structure to the finish.

If it’s made from wood, we can design it, build it, and install it.

Our craftsmanship extends to:

Green oak framing

Gazebos, pergolas, orangeries, and garden extensions

Outdoor kitchens

Bespoke oak structures designed for entertaining and built to endure.

Garages and barns

Robust oak-framed buildings that combine traditional methods with modern needs.

Every project starts with a conversation about your space and ends with a finished piece of work that’s both practical and personal.

“The work was completed in an amiable and professional manner”
