Our Process
We discuss your vision, preferred fuel type, seating needs, and budget. We assess your space for optimal placement considering wind patterns and proximity to structures.
Choose from natural stone, pavers, concrete, or metal. Select fire glass, lava rock, or traditional logs. We help you pick materials that complement your home.
We obtain required permits, especially for gas fire pits. Your advisor ensures all work meets local fire codes and regulations.
We excavate and prepare the foundation, ensuring proper drainage and a level base. For gas units, we run the gas line to the location.
The fire pit is built and the burner or fire ring is installed. Gas connections are made and tested. Finishing materials are applied.
We conduct safety checks, obtain final inspection approval, and show you how to operate and maintain your new fire feature.
