Your tree house will compliment your landscape and blend in with the natural environment. Our expertise in the building and construction of tree houses makes our tree house projects the most practical, beautiful, unique, and most importantly, the safest tree houses possible.
Leaders in Tree House Construction
Tree House Construction is known to be many centuries old, but only in the last couple decades have companies started building custom tree houses as their primary business activity. Building a tree house is easy, but building a safe, long-lasting, and tree-friendly tree house requires expertise and professional competence. We have grown adept at working around natural, treehouse specific, building challenges such as leaning trees, uneven terrain, great heights, or branches passing through the floor, walls, railings, and/or roof of the tree house.
We care about building tree friendly, safe, and high quality custom tree houses - it is our passion and life's work. It sounds simple, but you should not assume all treehouse builders offer the same professional approach. As tree house experts, we regularly maintain and repair tree houses, so we understand very well that many treehouse building methods out do not stand the test of time. We believe that honesty, integrity, patience, and technical competence are essential. Without these, either safety or tree health will suffer. Care must be taken when when building treehouses to prevent the tree from entering a spiral of increasing harm. Remember, a treehouse typically only lasts as long as it's host tree. Often, by the time we are called in to assess and repair an old tree house, the trees have greatly suffered. It takes insight and experience to know how the tree and treehouse will interact over time; that's what we bring to each and every tree house project.
Tree Houses and Family Safety
On a more personal note, safety for all treehouse inhabitants is always on our minds at each step of the treehouse construction. Dan and Amy have 3 young boys. The boys like to visit local treehouses, climb ladders, ride zip lines, use the climbing walls and bounce across the rope bridges. They grab tools and “help” build the treehouses because that's what their daddies' do. The older two boys run around testing every section of the tree house for weaknesses. We have spent so much time with our kids at various tree houses, that we know what makes a safe and fun kids' treehouse. We take the building and construction of tree houses very seriously. We build each and every kids' treehouse like it was being built for our kids to play on and grow into, and that's why you can trust that even our most basic kids' tree houses have mom's and dad's safety seal of approval.
