Thompson Creek Farm Bridge Rebuild

Thompson Creek Farm has a footbridge that needed some rotten deck boards replaced. We were excited to support local and supply the lumber for the decking! Yellow Cedar is great choice for this kind of project because of the natural rot resistance and durability for wear and tear. Treated lumber was not an option for this bridge since the creek it crosses is salmon bearing. The deck boards were sealed before installation.

Thompson Creek Farm is a local free-range egg supplier in Mission, BC. They have the best eggs in town!

Before: rotten deck boards need replacing

All the replacement pieces are sealed to increase the longevity of the footbridge

Old rotten pieces are removed and the existing frame is cleaned off

Look at the difference between the new and the old!

Out with the old, in with the new! These old boards are only 7 years old and quite rotten
