Built-in wood and gas fire pits with stone surrounds, seating and safe clearances, designed as the heart of your outdoor space.
Few things bring people together like a fire. A built-in fire pit becomes the gathering spot of a yard: cool-season evenings, marshmallows with the kids and long talks after dark. It also extends the outdoor season, which in Nashville stretches well into fall and returns early in spring. The design details matter, from the distance to the house to the type of fuel and the seating around it.
We design fire pits to be safe and comfortable. We consider clearances to the house, trees and structures, wind direction and local rules. You can choose a wood-burning pit with a stone or paver surround, a gas fire feature with a clean, controllable flame or a combination. We build the base properly, line the fire area with fire-rated material, add seating walls or space for chairs and plan lighting and paths to the spot. We explain how to use and maintain the pit and what rules may apply to your neighborhood. We also plan a clear path, nearby seating and a spot for wood storage, so the fire area works well for weeknight use and for larger gatherings.
Clearances from the house, trees and overhead branches are planned in advance.
Wood has the classic crackle, while gas gives easy, controllable flame.
Fire-rated liners and solid bases handle heat and weather.
Walls, chairs and soft lighting make the spot inviting.
