How to build a garden stream water feature
This video shows you the full process involved in building a garden stream water feature. This natural looking and relaxing garden stream is built using pond liner and concrete. A small submersible pond pump is used to return water back to the top of the garden stream. Pebbles are used around the edge and bottom of the garden stream to create a really natural look.

I’ve been looking similar for this for years and here it is.thank you very much
what a beautiful garden and of course the water feature.
Great your garden. Thank you!
best stream tips!
How do you run the electrical is it something you use an extension cord for and bury the cord but not the plug?
Ugly
Looks great
Looks amazing. Do you have to replenish the water? Does it drain away or need to be topped up?
Beautiful stream and great advice. How much does it cost to run the pump on a yearly or monthly basis? Did you notice a big increase in your electric bill? Thanks.
Hi can you tell me where you got your pump from please? The project looks great and I want to do it ASAP! Just trying to work out costs! Thanks!
Its fantastic ! Thank you for all the details ! Soon , I will try to make this water stream in my backyard…
This is a great video! Just what I was looking for 🙂 I suddenly got the idea of a tiny stream somewhere and wanted to check some videos for inspiration. Thanks!
Great video!
Do you by any chance do voice over work for the Calm app? Soooo relaxing 😌
So how deep and wide do you recommend? I was going to make mine just 18-24" wide x 6" deep. 🤷♀️. Mine will be pumped from and returning to a pond.

Could you give me some information about the concrete? Like which brand? strength? how much water in the mix? how thick is it laid in? do you lay in bottom then sides? how long to let it dry? do it have any reinforcement? etcetera? It’s exactly what I’d like to have. Thanks much!!!
Nice video , so calmly you told what to take care and what to avoid , thanks
Hey man. Great build. Out of curiosity, did you tussle with the idea of adding a filter to the pump system? Or is one already in place to keep algae etc down?
Were there any issues getting the concrete to adhere to the liner?
Hello, thank you for the great video. I LOVE all your plants. Would you happen to know the name of some of them? I wish I could figure out how to add a picture as I’ve circled the ones I’m interested in.
This is just fantastic. I have the same kind of garden and this has inspired me greatly ❤️👍🏻

Thanks this helped ALOT
This is exactly what I have been looking for, thanks for the inspiration! How much height in cm’s does the stream drop from the beginning to the end?
Let justice flow down like waters, and righteousness like an ever-flowing stream
what tree is bottom left at 4.40 mimutes in ?
What kind of pump did you use please
What pump did you use
Very good. I did something similar in 2019 and like you, I found that the birds were into it straight away. On hot days, it’s great to watch them splashing about. I find the birds needs shallow water to bathe in, so I had to add pebbles rather than remove them.
I have become obsessed with putting in a water feature in my back yard. want a natural stream flowing thru yard, which has just a slight incline. THIS is it. what I want. I can’t tell you how many videos I have watched on ponds, waterfalls, and streams. Ilove your approach. I feel relieved by your approach- to go/ do/ set/ plant/ walk away. come back. adjust, add, subtract to just right. I’m wanting to recreate a walk in the woods and have let my urban yard grow a bit, to see what plants want to come up naturally, gently modifying and letting things be. I use a weed eater with a short line to trim, so I can see what flowers and plants want to be there but have been killed off in the past. It’s been so rewarding. Now I’m ready for my babbling brook. thank you thank you. subscribed 🙂
Excellent video, I am tempted to get started.
Thanks for sharing this! I’m looking into building something similar for my front yard, and you did an amazing job here. How deep would you guess the stream became after you removed the pebbles? I live in an area of the U.S. that has a climate fairly similar to where you are (I’m guessing), so just wondering how deep I should make it to avoid evaporation during the summer months.
Can we get this dude to read children books?
What a great video! Well done you. The stream looks amazing, you’ve transformed a small humble garden into a beautiful and enchanting space. I love it! One question, I’m assuming your pump was electric. I don’t have electricity in the garden, do you think it would be possible to use a smart solar pump? And could you advise where to get one powerful enough.. Thanks ..
You should add aquatic plants
could I ask what the tree is in the bottom left corner at 4:33 ?
Beautyful
Fantastic stream! Thank you for the chronological perspective. It really helps to see how this project evolved over time, which is pretty much how a garden hobbiest like myself does things.
Awesome, thanks for the tips
can you convert drainage or retention ditch in to a garden stream?
how do you get rid of mosquitoes in your water features?
Great idea and looks impressive👏👏👏👏 http://www.youtube.com/c/thewaterboyuk
I liked it so much.can u guise me for my stream,I wanna build one in my garden
Excellent advice. I am looking to change my ‘dry bed’ feature into an actual ‘stream’ feature. It is away from a power supply. Would there be a suitable non-mains pump available?
Stream is better than pond, thanks for the idea 👍
Thanks for the video,very informative and great that you costed parts,want to make one a little wider but about same length ,would you recommend bigger pump or is this ok ?
Amazing job!! Do you have fish there?
Hi. Great video. How do you avoid mosqitos?
