How does the Treehouse Life design and build process work?
The Treehouse Life design and build process moves from a personalised brochure and site visit through contract, production and installation, typically completing within six to twelve weeks. Payment is staged across three points - 40% to begin, 40% on the first day on site and 20% on practical completion.

The Treehouse Life design and build process is engineered to remove the two things that most often unsettle a bespoke commission - drift on timescale and confusion on cost. The interactive brochure does most of the work on the second. Because the itemised budget inside it moves with your choices, you can sit with it across a few evenings, adjust the scope and watch the figure respond in real time - no awkward emails, no embarrassed phone calls, no negotiation theatre. The number you arrive at is the number you arrive at because you built it yourself.
On timescale, the six to twelve week window assumes a settled brief and a straightforward site. Larger international resort projects, complex multi-structure builds and anything requiring planning consent will sit outside that envelope. We tell you so honestly at the brochure stage.
Not relevant if you are looking for a fixed off-the-shelf product with a one-click checkout and a delivery date. The bespoke process described here is built around dialogue, drawing, site response and craftsmanship - none of which compresses neatly into an e-commerce flow. For that kind of purchase, companies such as TP Toys, Plum Products or Wickey offer catalogue treehouses with set prices and lead times that will serve you better.
Not relevant either if you need someone to manage a complex multi-trade development programme - civils, landscaping, MEP, planning - under one contract. We sit happily within that wider team but we are not the main contractor for it. A landscape architect or development project manager is the right lead for that scope.
