Stairs, difficult access, sloping ground and unusual tree supports cost extra. A design visit is $75, credited toward a build. We give you the total in writing before you commit.
April–June 2027
A spring build starts in winter.
November–February is for design visits and tree assessment. In March we settle the plan and materials. April–June builds depend on weather and the site being ready; a request does not hold a week.
Before we put a date on it
We check access for materials, the ground beneath the platform and the intended way up. We tell you what to ask your town about setbacks, height and permits. Town answers come before the final schedule.
A few practical questions
Can you build without attaching to the tree?
Yes. Where the yard allows it, posts can carry the structure beside the tree. We still leave space around the trunk and protect the root area during the work.
Are stairs included?
The starting prices include a fixed ladder with handholds. Stairs need more space and are priced separately after the visit.
Not sure which size fits?
That is what the design visit is for. We will measure the space and talk through a modest first plan.
