FAQ
Fire Pit Questions
Do I need a permit for a fire pit in Florida?
Permit requirements vary by county and municipality. We advise you on what applies to your specific property before starting any work and handle the permit process when required.
Gas or wood fire pit: which is better for Central Florida?
Gas fire pits are more convenient: instant on/off, no ash cleanup and no smoke to deal with in Florida humidity. Wood-burning pits give a more traditional campfire experience. Both are popular choices here.
How far from the house does a fire pit need to be?
Most local codes require a minimum of 10 feet from any structure. We follow all local fire safety guidelines during design and installation.
What materials work best for a fire pit in Florida?
Brick, concrete block and natural stone all hold up well in the Florida climate. We do not use materials that absorb moisture and crack when heated. All our fire pit builds use fire-rated materials at the firebox.
Can you build a fire pit with seating around it?
Yes. We design and build integrated paver seating walls, benches and step-down areas around the fire pit to create a complete outdoor gathering space.
