Basic Tree House Design Services
This is the most affordable way to design a simple treehouse if you don't mind cutting a few corners to save money or time. It works out fine for most basic small to medium residential kids tree houses. In this category we do not always perform on site consulting services by our professional tree house designers or arborists. Of course, if you are located within a reasonable distance from us, it may still make sense to have us consult with you on site first. If you are far away, we'll ask you to provide us with some pictures of the trees and take some measurements for us to use in creating your custom tree house design. We often will show you what your treehouse will look like by showing you pictures of other treehouses we've built over the years rather than by creating custom artwork for your tree house design proposal.
Designing Tree Houses - Why Choose Basic Tree House Service?
Here are some situations where we recommend choosing our Basic Tree House Design Service:
- If you have a modest or fixed budget for the tree house and you want all of your money to go towards tree house construction (materials and labor) rather than professional tree house design service fees.
- If you don't mind taking some pictures of the tree house site and taking some measurements for us.
- If no building permit is required for tree house construction.
- If a building permit may be required, but you choose not to pursue one AND the neighbors either can't see the tree house from their land or you have asked what they think of your plan to build a treehouse in specific trees and they do not raise any objections. Remember that nearly all tree house related township disputes start because of a disgruntled neighbor alerting authorities.
- If you love the pictures in our tree house portfolio and trust us to create something that you will like, so you don't feel the need to spend a lot of time planning all of the design details.
- If you generally want to save money wherever possible, are less picky about the appearance of the tree house construction proposal, and don't need premium tree house design services... just a tree house, please!
Basic tree house design service can help you plan, design and build your custom tree house when resource constraints make higher levels of tree house design services prohibitive. Basic tree house design service works well if you want a simple tree house, a platform, or a modest kids tree house. Many of our tree house accessories that make each treehouse so much fun are very affordable as add-ons.
