Even when a house foundation is being laid, an expert is required to give a green light. Do the same for your tree house. There is a major risk if the tree or trees are not strong enough.

Make sure to nail some pieces of wood to the trunk to form a ladder. Make a more stable platform by nailing a few boards together across two or more branches. The branches should be close together. If you can sit or stand on the platform without fear, then you have done it right. * Think about the element of weight: if you want to build a tree house, always consider the weight to add. You certainly have to use different types of timber but it should be lightweight. The more weight you add, the riskier your house becomes. Even the furniture you intend to keep inside the house must not be heavy. Plastic chairs are better. However you should not fear. When you have an expert near you, risks caused by extreme pressure on branches can be avoided.
