Frequently Asked Questions.
1. Do Blue Forest only design and build tree houses? No, although we primarily build tree houses we also offer a full design and construction service for clients interested in building lodges and hideaways of all kinds.
2. Do I need a mature tree to support my tree house? Not necessarily, the structure can be supported on stilts if the tree is not suitable or if the trees are protected.
3. Is planning permission required? This will depend largely on what you are hoping to build, its location, its size, the height of the structure and what you intend to use it for. We are very happy to offer advice and guidance and if necessary act as agents on your behalf during the planning process.
4. How much will it cost? That’s entirely up to you. Prices start around £12,000 and the sky is the limit!
All Blue Forest tree houses are bespoke which means we are unable to give a definite price until we have completed a full site survey. However, we are happy to work around your budget to ensure we create the perfect tree house for you.
5. How long does it all take? The process can take some time so it’s always worth thinking ahead. Firstly, a member of the team will visit you to discuss your ideas and to undertake a survey of the location. Following this, we aim to provide you with a full set of plans and an itemised quotation within four weeks. If you choose to proceed there can be a wait of up to 3 months depending on the time of year until we are able to commence construction. On average, construction takes between two to five weeks depending on the size of your project.
Where to go from here…
An initial consultation: We are delighted to arrange an initial consultation at a convenient time in order to:
1. Listen to your ideas and ambitions
2. Present a selection of previous Blue Forest projects for your interest.
3. Discuss financial budgets.
4. Discuss planning issues.
5. Discuss and explain timescales and logistics.
6. Discuss the surrounding environment and assess suitable locations.
Survey and Designs: Should you wish to proceed from there, we would undertake a comprehensive site survey and complete a full, scaled design.
Instead of including the cost of designs in the final construction price, we charge a small upfront fee for the design and survey (approximately 4% of the estimated construction cost). Our design service offers unrivalled value for money and each customer is presented with a comprehensive bound portfolio. This document includes, a full design brief and building specification, fully itemized quotation and estimated construction schedule, a scaled floor and site plan(s) and set of 3D computer rendered design images, providing a photo-realistic image of the tree house or lodge before it is built.
A Comprehensive Quotation: Along with our designs we will submit an itemised quotation to supply and fit your exclusive tree house or eco-lodge. This quotation will include an estimated construction time. If you wish to proceed the installation date would be confirmed to you, in writing, upon receipt of your deposit. We would require a 40% deposit of the total amount. A following 30% would be due upon commencement of construction with the balance payable upon completion.
With regard to cost, we do not have a set price list as each tree house and eco-lodge is unique. For more information please contact the office:
