HOW TO BUILD A TREEHOUSE
Expertly Designed & Built
Follow along below to see how Leam Blackwood, owner of Treehouse Dreambuilders in Colorado, builds a treehouse from start to finish.
Every treehouse is built to last in the local climate and is attached to the trees using special hardware for the safety of both the tree and the treehouse users.
Leam works with you to choose the overall design and finishes that will make the treehouse uniquely yours.

Building a Treehouse, Step by Step

We start each treehouse with braces using hardware that doesn't harm the trees.

Next we build a platform to act as the foundation.

Special connectors allow the tree to move and grow while securing the treehouse.

Treehouse Dreambuilders builds just like home builders, just on a smaller scale. And in trees! Here you see the wall sheathing in place.

This treehouse features a safe, secure staircase.

Even the interiors of our treehouses are custom built and finished to fit your style.

The ceiling is built properly so the treehouse will last.

A Tyvek wrap helps protect the treehouse from the elements, just like regular houses.

This treehouse has insulation to keep it cozy.

It's coming together now! The porch railing and roof is in place.
