Choosing Between a Fire Pit & an Outdoor Fireplace
If you want to add a fire feature at your home, then you have probably asked yourself the question: fire pit or outdoor fireplace? Choosing the best option for your property can be a challenging decision given the many benefits each one offers. Although you can't go wrong with either amenity, factors to consider while trying to determine the feature for you include:
- Property Size: Fire pits are ideal for smaller yards and patios, while fireplaces are better accommodated by larger outdoor living spaces.
- Purpose: Fire pits are great facilitators of conversation, allowing you and your loved ones to circle up and talk face-to-face. Fireplaces foster greater privacy and are ideal for enjoying quieter evenings.
- Price: Fire pits are luxuries that tend to be a little friendlier to your budget than fireplaces.
We can install a kit or create a custom design for your fire pit or fireplace.
After choosing between a fire pit or an outdoor fireplace, your next step is to determine whether you want to go with a kit or create a custom design. If you want a pre-designed kit, we can install a high-quality fire pit or outdoor fireplace from Belgard. If you want a custom design, we will work with you to create a uniquely beautiful fire feature that is tailor-made to suit your outdoor living space and complement your other hardscape features. You can choose to build your custom fire pit or fireplace using concrete paver wall blocks or cement cinder blocks that are faced with natural stone or stucco. We can arrange these materials in any shape or size.
We will partner with you to craft a design that meets your specifications and enhances your property.
