Custom Fire Pits

Gather Around Something Beautiful

A custom fire pit is more than just a backyard feature—it’s a destination. It’s where conversations flow, marshmallows roast, and chilly nights become cozy memories. At Homesmith, we design and build custom fire pits in both concrete and wood-burning styles that bring warmth, character, and long-lasting value to your outdoor space.

Fire Pit Styles We Offer

Concrete Fire Pits

Clean, modern lines
Durable and weather-resistant
Custom sizes, shapes, and finishes
Can be built gas-ready or wood-burning
Perfect for patios, hardscapes, or poolside lounges

Concrete fire pits are ideal for homeowners seeking a permanent, architectural focal point. We shape and pour each fire pit to suit your outdoor layout, using high-quality concrete mixes and optional decorative finishes like smooth trowel, exposed aggregate, or colored stains.

Wood-Burning Fire Pits (Brick or Stone)

Timeless, organic look and feel
Crafted with natural stone, brick, or block
Creates a classic campfire ambiance
Can be round, square, or custom-shaped
Great for larger yards and social seating areas

Wood-burning fire pits offer a rustic and inviting atmosphere. We use heat-rated masonry materials and proper ventilation techniques to ensure safety and longevity—while blending perfectly with your landscape design.

What's Included in a Custom Fire Pit Construction

Our Custom Fire Pit Construction covers every aspect of your project

On-Site Consultation & Design Planning

We evaluate your space, listen to your goals, and create a design tailored to your style, layout, and lifestyle. We’ll determine the best location, shape, size, and materials to suit your yard and seating area.

Excavation & Site Preparation

Proper prep is essential. We grade and clear the area, prepare the sub-base, and ensure proper drainage and ventilation to prevent shifting, pooling, or heat damage over time.

Fire Pit Base & Structural Construction

We construct a stable, long-lasting base using concrete, masonry block, or natural stone—depending on your design—and build the fire pit structure to meet all fire safety and structural standards.

Fire-Rated Interior & Heat Shielding

We line the interior with heat-resistant materials such as fire brick, heat mortar, or stainless components, ensuring safe and efficient heat containment, whether wood-burning or gas-ready.

Finish Materials & Custom Detailing

Choose from smooth concrete, decorative caps, natural stone veneer, brick, or stucco finishes. We finish your fire pit with clean lines and artisan detailing for a polished, permanent look.

Optional Add-Ons & Enhancements

We can integrate complementary upgrades such as seating walls, built-in lighting, firewood storage, or paver surrounds—creating a complete backyard destination, not just a standalone feature.
