Handcrafted decks, outdoor furniture, sheds and garden woodwork — from renewing a tired deck to building something entirely new. Serving Geneva and the surrounding communes.
I'm Alex — woodworker just outside Geneva. Outdoor Crafts is new as a business this year, but wood, tools, and outdoor builds have been my thing for far longer. Decks where kids practically grow up, sheds that finally swallow all the garden tools, benches that get warm in the afternoon sun — that's the work I'm here to do.
Every project is hands-on from the first site visit to the last coat of oil. No middlemen, no subcontractors — just me, good wood, and work that's meant to last.
I keep a narrow focus — the kind of outdoor woodwork I know inside out. Everything is custom-sized, finished by hand, and built to weather Swiss seasons.
Hardwood, softwood and composite decks — designed to fit your home, finished to sit properly in the landscape. Built to walk on barefoot, season after season.
Sanding, re-oiling, replacing boards — bringing tired decks back to life. Often half the cost of replacing, with the same refreshed feel underfoot.
Garden sheds, tool stores, bike shelters, log stores. Custom-sized to your space, with proper doors, proper roofing, and no flat-pack shortcuts.
Benches, tables, planters, pergolas. Solid-wood pieces designed for a specific spot in a specific garden — not mass-produced, not forgotten in a catalogue.
A straightforward four-step process. No surprises, no sales pressure — just a clear path from idea to something you can stand on.
Most quote requests start with "I need a shed" — and most of the time, what someone actually needs is one of three quite different things. Here's how to tell them apart.
A straight answer about lifespan in the Geneva climate — what helps, what kills it early, and what you can realistically expect from a properly built deck.
The simple signs that a deck is crying out for some care — and the three or four things you can do yourself before calling anyone.
