Play Platforms and Verandahs and Open Pavilions

We normally construct these 4ft. or 5 ft. off ground level; they have rustic handrails on all sides and one set of vertical stepladders with vertical rustic handrails. Our platforms can form the structure for a tree house, an open sided raised play house or pavilion with roof or the structure for a series of exciting play items.

* If a roof is required the additional cost is indicated depending on the roof style

Overhead Rustic Walkways:

We generally construct these at 1 ½ feet wide at a height of 4 feet or 5 feet off ground level although any height is possible; rustic handrails run along both sides. The walkways can lead to a ramp, a jungle bridge a horizontal scramble net, a knotted rope, a slide etc. the walkway can be horizontal or sloping; a sloping walkway can also serve as an easy access ramp from ground level up to a verandah or tree house.

Two Tier Tree House:

A second playhouse can be constructed in the empty space under the main tree house; this can be used as a shed for garden items, for bicycles or as a playhouse for younger children.

Play Equipment:

Our play items can be any size, length or thickness of rope or wood; we do not sell these items individually; they are hand crafted to fit our various Verandahs, Tree houses, Platforms and Play structures. Items such as rope ladders, scramble nets and slides, can be attached to the various platforms. Other items generally require one of our special structures.

Play Beam Structure £350

This consists of 2 vertical side posts, each being braced by 2 further ½ side posts; the whole being set in concrete in the ground. An overhead 6 inch by 2 inch beam joins the 2 vertical posts; we generally pitch the beam at 7 feet off the ground level with a span of between 7 feet and 9 feet.
