Professional teepee assembly - children's play teepees set up properly with poles secured and fabric tensioned. A stable hideout that stays standing during play.
Secret Hideout Ready
Kids love teepees - their own private space, a reading den, a pretend camp. But collapsed poles and saggy fabric ruin the magic.
💡 Pro tip: Position the teepee where there's room to climb in and out safely - away from furniture edges and trip hazards.

🔧 DIY Tips
Setting up yourself? Here's what matters:
🔧 What you'll need
- The instructions
- All the poles (check!)
- Space to work
- Patience
📐 Good setup
- Lay out all poles first
- Thread through fabric channels
- Spread poles evenly
- Tie at top securely
- Adjust fabric tension
- Check stability
⚠️ Common DIY mistakes
- Poles too close together (unstable)
- Fabric not pulled down properly
- Tie point too loose
- Wrong room position
💡 Pro trick: The wider you spread the pole bases, the more stable the teepee. But too wide and the fabric doesn't sit right. Find the balance.
Rather leave it to a pro? No problem - that's what I'm here for. Give me a call.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can't I just put up a teepee myself?
You can - they're designed to be assembled. But if you're doing other playroom setup or find the instructions confusing, we're happy to include it. Some have surprisingly fiddly pole arrangements.
Will it stay up with kids playing?
Properly assembled, yes. The poles need to be spread correctly and the fabric tensioned right. Kids will bump into it - it should be stable enough to handle that.
Is this worth a callout just for a teepee?
On its own, probably try it yourself first. But if we're doing other nursery or playroom work, it makes sense to include it. Takes us minutes.
What about garden teepees?
Same service - outdoor play teepees, festival-style tents, camping teepees. We can set up any play shelter structure.
