About Us

My fascination and love for water started as young child. I have very found memories of making little streams and rivers with a stick and my rubber boots and being intrigued at how graceful water seemed to move and flow. This love grew as I did and the wonder of water never really left. I spent many days catching crayfish and minnows and simply allowing my thoughts to drift with the currents.

In 2003 while surfing the internet I stumbled upon some websites that featured water gardening. I instantly feel in love, I began to immerse myself into learning more about bring the wonder of water into the back yard and everyday landscape.

I want to make it very clear that I am not a ponding or water gardening expert. I have a love and fascination with the hobby and both these factors have driven me to research and learn. I have also aligned myself with top industry experts so I can learn from them and also help bring there knowledge to others who will benefit from their experience and expertise. I discovered a lack of solid pond building information and limited reliable value based online retailers of ponding equipment and supplies.

BuildingMyPond.com has been a vision of mine and it literally took over a year to see it come online. I am very excited to see this dream become reality. I an confident that thousands of people will be empowered to build their very own backyard paradise with the information and products within the site. I believe that the site that will help equip people in making informed, intelligent decisions regarding designing, building and maintaining the water garden that is right for them, their lifestyle and their landscape. And the best part is, all the information and interaction features of the site are free.

I recognize that up until now there has been issues for anyone looking for information on building a pond or waterfall. That is exactly what Building My Pond.com is, an information resource for people to gain the confidence through information on how to succeed in their ponding experiences.

I am very excited to anounce that I have added a full online retail store to compliment the free information on this site. Click on the Pond and Waterfall Building Supply Store link to visit our fully stocked discount pond supply store.

It is my goal to see my visitors / members make an informed decision regarding building a pond or waterfall by providing the most up to date useful information that will help educate you so you can make the best ponding decisions for you and your yard.

This free service is here to help you become informed and enjoy your ponding experience and not begin one of those, "I'll never do that again experiences".

I trust you will start to experience what so many people have, that a back yard pond will truly have a positive impact on the lifestyle of you and your family.
