Overview

A fire pit gives people a reason to stay outside a little longer.

It's where conversations run late on summer nights and where the season stretches into the cool Iowa fall. A well-placed fire pit becomes the natural center of a backyard.

We size and position each fire pit to work with your patio, your seating, and your views, with comfortable clearance from the house, trees, and other structures. Materials are chosen to match your patio and walls, so the fire pit feels like part of the design rather than something set down on top of it.

Fire pits are often planned together with a new paver patio or seat walls, but they can also be added to an existing outdoor space.

Planning

What we consider in every fire pit

  • 01

    Location & spacing

    Comfortable clearance from the house, trees, and structures, and a spot that works with how you use the yard.

  • 02

    Seating

    Room for chairs, or seat walls built into the design so there's always a place to sit.

  • 03

    Materials

    Chosen to match the patio and walls, so the whole space reads as one.

  • 04

    Surface

    Pavers around the fire pit create a clean, durable gathering area.
