Fire Features

Fire pits, fireplaces, and hearths built as the gathering point of your outdoor space — the thing everyone ends up standing around.

What We Build

The Center of the Backyard

Schedule FREE Consultation

We've come a long way from the modest outdoor fireplace. Today the features, conveniences, and design options make a custom outdoor fireplace or fire pit the perfect punctuation to your backyard living experience. From simple to spectacular, you can create your fire feature as a gathering place, a focal point, or both — we're here to guide you through the possibilities to find your perfect fit.

As your outdoor fireplace contractor, we'll design and custom build any look — from rustic to modern and everything in between. We'll sit down and help you plan the right fire feature for your space, then build it with real stone masonry and the installation techniques to back it up. And we'll be there after the build to make sure you're happy with it for years to come.

A Warm, Cozy Refuge When the Temperature Drops

Gas or wood-burning, sized to your patio and seating — a well-built fire pit stretches the outdoor season well past summer, without giving up comfort.

Built to Bring People Together

People naturally gather around a fire. We design the seating and layout first, so your fire feature becomes the actual center of the yard — not an afterthought against the fence line.

Real Masonry, Not a Kit

We build fire features out of real stone and block — not a prefab ring dropped on the patio. Same footings, same drainage planning, same standard as the rest of our masonry work.

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Both have a place. Gas lights instantly and needs no cleanup, while wood-burning gives you a real fire and can run cheaper long-term. We'll walk through the tradeoffs during your consultation so you can pick what fits how you'll actually use it.

It depends on your city and the type of feature. We handle the permitting process as part of the build, so you don't have to track it down yourself.

In most cases, yes. We'll assess your existing patio's material and layout during the consultation to confirm what's possible and how it should tie into the surrounding hardscape.

A standalone fire pit or fireplace typically takes less time than a full outdoor kitchen or shade structure. We'll give you a specific timeline once we've scoped your project and site conditions.
