There’s nothing better than hearing from a happy customer. Can’t you just imagine this patio filled with friends and family, sitting around the fire and celebrating life for years to come? What a beautiful thing to play a part in.
Why A Fire Pit Changes How You Use Your Yard
A fire pit gives everyone a reason to come outside and a place to face each other once they do. In Central Illinois it also adds weeks to the outdoor season: cool September and October evenings are some of the best of the year when you have a fire going.
What Makes A Gathering Space Work
- Room to move. Plan for chairs pulled back from the fire, plus a walkway around the outside of the circle.
- Built-in seating. A seat wall around part of the fire pit adds seating without adding furniture and helps define the space.
- The right surface. A paver patio handles heat, foot traffic and freeze-thaw cycles far better than gravel or wood.
- Lighting. Low-voltage landscape lighting on steps and walls keeps the space safe and inviting after dark.
