Our
Story
Rooted in East Lansing. Refined by 25+ Years of Experience.
Jeremy Crane grew up in East Lansing, graduated from East Lansing Public Schools, and has spent more than 25 years mastering carpentry and design. From framing entire homes to creating custom built-ins, his work has always been about elevating everyday living. Crane Carpentry & Design was born from that same philosophy: bringing timeless craftsmanship and thoughtful design to homeowners across Clinton, Eaton, Ingham, and Shiawassee counties.
​
At Crane Carpentry & Design, we believe true craftsmanship never goes out of style. Our work is guided by three values:
-
Craftsmanship: Every cut, joint, and finish reflects decades of practice.
-
Design: Built to complement your home, not compete with it.
-
Trust: Local roots and long-standing reputation mean you can rely on us to deliver.
From shelving and bookcases to mantels and custom furniture, our built-ins are designed to look like they’ve always belonged in your home.
Kitchens, basements, laundry rooms, and more; thoughtful remodels that transform both the look and the function of your home.
From new walls to open-concept layouts, staircases, and additions; the strength of your home starts with precise framing and structure.
Expand your living space outdoors with custom decks, pergolas, and detailed entryways built to last through Michigan seasons.
