Fire Pits & Outdoor Fireplaces in Stow, OH

Fire pits, fire tables, or a full fireplace?

A block fire pit built into the patio is the common choice, wood burning or gas with a steel ring or burner insert. A curved seat wall wrapping the pit gives everyone somewhere to sit. A full outdoor fireplace, framed, veneered in stone and finished with a heavy mantel, is a bigger build again, and we have built them under pavilions so the fire and the roof work together.

Why we design fire in from the start

A fire feature changes the layout of everything around it. Seating pulls toward it, traffic routes around it, and the patio shape should be drawn knowing where the fire goes. That is why the 3D design comes first and the fire feature is already in the drawing.

What moves the price of a fire feature

Prices step up from a wood-burning block pit, to a pit wrapped in a curved seat wall, to a full fireplace with a stone chimney. Gas adds the line, run by your plumber and coordinated in the plan. A fireplace adds footers, block framing, veneer and a cap, which is why it costs several times what a pit does. The design puts a number on the version you want before any block is ordered, and some clients build the pit now and leave space in the layout for the fireplace later.

How a built-in fire feature goes together

A built-in fire feature is a masonry project:

• A block core built on the patio's engineered base, never on bare ground
• A steel ring for wood or a burner insert for gas, sized in the design
• Gas run by your plumber, coordinated in the plan, before stone closes it in
• Veneer and caps matched to the seat walls and the rest of the yard
• Clearances set in the 3D design to your town's code

Where we build it
