Do you want to make a bridge over your pond, or maybe one in your garden as a beautiful feature?
This is one of the best bang for buck builds I’ve ever done. It’s surprising how easy it is and what you get in return looks absolutely amazing.
I’d never built a bridge before, let alone an arched one, so was worried that it was going to be complicated. On the contrary, this was one of those builds that had me pinching myself at how quickly it all came together, and the result makes the pond look so much better.
Let me know in the comments if you’ve got any questions, and sorry it’s taken so long to finally get this video finished!!

Only just found this, but you made a comment about how decking should be installed groove side down which blew my tiny little mind because every single deck I have seen has the grooves up – but that's all been in the UK really. I was thinking "Surely not everyone has been doing it wrong??" and so I found this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QRuhR7_pwcc
I like this guy's DIY channel because he takes time to research and try a load of products.
Anyway, in short, which way up you install decking is really up to you. But yes, airflow is important so I learned something today, thank you 🙂
Very helpful – I’ll try it – Your pond is beautiful! Can you share your secret for keeping the pond water clean and healthy?
Nice job
what is the thickness of the decking board? loved how easy and simple your video is. I watched another video and they said deck thickness of 22 which is the standard here, doesn't do well over 45cm expansion. Yours I believe is 60cm maybe even little more to include the thickness of the side beams. Just wondering how it's holding up?
Excellent video and construction . Just what I’m looking to build for the garden stream I’m planning to build next year in mine. Thank you from England 😊👍🏻
Great video, thanks for making it simple to understand. Can you please let me know how Height this bridge above the ground? And if I wanted to make it more curveee do I have to go for 8 inches or even 10 inches of width?
