In order to help you select the correct garden bridge for your project you will want to find the answers to a few questions. What is the theme of your landscape? How do you intend to use your garden bridge? Where will you place your bridge? How strong does your bridge need to be or how much weight should hold? Is the ground level on each side?
What style garden bridge should I choose?

With the technical questions about your bridge answered now it’s time to think about the style bridge that you are considering such as posts, short posts, or no posts. How about rails? Do you want a single rail, or double rails? What about spindle garden bridges and how about solar lights do you want your bridge sealed or are you considering composite lumber. All good questions that will determine your style, and we will help you with that.

Once you have a good idea of what you’re looking for, we look forward to speaking with you directly about your project. We encourage all of our customers to call before we begin the building process. This is to make sure that you have the exact bridge you’re looking for.

A few short moments on the phone will ensure your bridge is built the way you want it and we can even offer some suggestions on things you may not have thought about.
What happens after I choose my garden bridge?

Once we determine answers to all the questions will start the building process. First we will hand select each piece of lumber to use for your bridge. We will then build your bridge, detail and sand all the edges. Your bridge is then line traced and all components are numbered once you have the bridge at your location it will be very easy for you to reassemble it.

Your completed bridge will be disassembled and packaged and then shipped to you through our carrier. The normal turnaround time for this process is 7 to 10 business days.Our Redwood Garden Bridges are quoted as actual-size. Actual end-to-end lengths of each bridge will span the gap. For example a 8 foot bridge actually covers a 6 foot opening. With a foot of footing at each end.
