Outdoor Fireplaces and Firepits

The outdoor features on your property are what add to the beauty and attractiveness of your home and its curb appeal. If you live anywhere in and around Maryland Heights, Hazelwood, Wentzville, Ellisville and Saint Ann, you may have noticed that most properties in these areas have some or the other outdoor feature and outdoor fireplaces and firepits are very popular installations.

Adding any one of these or even both, to your property is an excellent way to make these open spaces more usable. These could be installed in the outdoor kitchen, on the patio, deck or anywhere in the garden or yard. In many instances, these installations become the focal point of the outdoor space. We at Thies Custom Walls and Landscaping have installed several outdoor stone fireplaces as well as fire pits on properties across Saint Charles, Creve Coeur, Lake Saint Louis, Bridgeton and Chesterfield.

These features are custom designed and installed using the best materials and workmanship. We work very closely with our clients to ensure that we understand what their specific ideas are and that these are incorporated into the design of the concrete fire pit. Take a look at some aspects we take into consideration while constructing fireplaces and firepits:

About Fireplace Installations

As mentioned earlier, these could be installed anywhere on the property. In some cases, they may be installed in a semi-enclosed space like an outdoor kitchen, while at others, they may be positioned under a pergola, near a pool house or they might be constructed out in the open, in one corner of the yard.

About Firepit Installations

A fire pit can also be installed in any part of the garden or yard. It's different from having a fireplace in that it's a much smaller installation and that it allows for seating right around it, if that's what your requirement is. A fire pit is an ideal option for smaller yards or when you want a secondary fire element in the landscape apart from the fireplace that's already installed there
