Custom Fire Pit Installation That Brings People Together
We design and build safe, beautiful fire pits that make your backyard more inviting year-round.
Fire Pit Installation
A well-built fire pit does more than add warmth. It gives you a place to gather, relax, and enjoy your backyard in every season. At Stokes Scapes, we design and build custom fire pits that fit your space, your style, and the way you want to use your outdoor area. From quiet family nights to entertaining friends, a fire feature can turn an ordinary patio into the spot everyone wants to be.
As a family-owned company serving Macon and the surrounding areas, we take pride in building outdoor spaces that feel inviting and last for years. We are fully licensed and insured, and we bring hands-on experience, careful planning, and close attention to detail to every fire pit installation. Our goal is simple: create a safe, durable, and attractive feature that adds comfort, value, and function to your property.
What our fire pit installation service includes
We handle the full process from planning to final installation. Every project starts with a conversation about how you want to use the space. Some homeowners want a rustic backyard fire pit for casual evenings. Others want a clean, modern feature that matches a paver patio, pool area, outdoor kitchen, or seating wall. We help you choose the right layout, materials, size, and finish so the fire pit looks like it belongs in your landscape.
Our fire pit installation service may include site planning, excavation, base preparation, fire pit construction, surrounding hardscape integration, and cleanup. We also look at important details like drainage, safety clearances, traffic flow, seating space, and how the fire pit works with your existing yard. If you are building a new patio or upgrading your outdoor living area, we can install the fire pit as part of a larger hardscape design.
Custom fire pit design options
No two backyards are exactly the same, so we offer custom options based on your needs and budget. We install both wood-burning fire pits and gas fire pits, depending on the look, convenience, and maintenance level you prefer.
Wood-burning fire pits are a popular choice for homeowners who love a traditional fire experience. They create a natural campfire feel, with the sounds and smell of real wood. These are great for casual gathering spaces and homeowners who enjoy building and tending a fire.
Gas fire pits are ideal for homeowners who want quick, easy use with less cleanup. They offer simple ignition, steady flames, and a clean look. Gas fire features are often selected for patios, poolside areas, and more polished outdoor living spaces where convenience matters.
We can build fire pits in many shapes and styles, including round fire pits, square fire pits, rectangular fire pits, and more custom layouts. Design choices may include natural stone, concrete block, brick, pavers, or stone veneer finishes. We can also match or complement existing features such as retaining walls, walkways, patio pavers, columns, and seating areas for a cohesive final result.
Built for safety and long-term performance
A fire pit should look great, but it also needs to be built the right way. That is why proper construction matters. We focus on stable base work, quality materials, correct sizing, and safe installation practices so your fire feature performs well over time. We pay attention to the placement of the fire pit in relation to your home, nearby structures, overhead obstacles, and landscape features. We also consider ventilation, heat resistance, and usability so the finished space is comfortable and practical.
When needed, we can guide you through factors like fuel type, fire pit ring installation, burner components, and material selection for heat durability. Our team makes sure the finished project is more than just attractive. It is designed to hold up to regular use and outdoor conditions while giving you peace of mind.
Benefits of adding a fire pit to your outdoor space
A professionally installed fire pit brings real value to your property and your daily life. It creates a natural focal point in the yard and helps extend the time you can enjoy your outdoor space during cooler evenings. It can make your patio more usable, improve the overall look of your landscape design, and create a more welcoming place for guests and family.
Homeowners often choose a backyard fire pit because it helps them get more from their property without a full addition or major renovation. It can define an outdoor living area, pair nicely with custom patios and seating walls, and support everything from quiet weekends to holiday gatherings. In many cases, it also adds visual appeal that can increase curb appeal and make the home feel more complete.
Fire pits for patios, pool areas, and backyard living spaces
We install fire pits in a wide range of outdoor settings. Some clients want a stand-alone fire feature as the centerpiece of their backyard. Others want the fire pit built into a larger outdoor living project with paver patios, pergolas, landscape lighting, garden borders, or poolside hardscaping. We design the feature to fit the space and improve how it functions.
For example, a poolside fire pit can create a resort-style feel and make the area more enjoyable after sunset. A patio fire pit can anchor a seating area and make the whole backyard feel more connected. In a larger landscape design, a custom fire pit can serve as the finishing touch that brings everything together.
Our process
We believe the best results come from good planning and clear communication. Our process starts with learning about your property, your goals, and your style preferences. We review the installation area, talk through layout ideas, and recommend options that make sense for your home and budget. Once the design is set, we prepare the site, build the fire pit with care, and make sure the finished area is clean and ready to enjoy.
Throughout the project, we focus on craftsmanship and reliability. We show up, communicate clearly, and treat your property with respect. That approach has helped us build trust with homeowners across Macon and nearby communities who want outdoor features done right the first time.

Our Fire Pit Installation Process
At Stokes Scapes, we make fire pit installation simple, clear, and built to last. From the first conversation to the final walkthrough, we focus on safe construction, clean workmanship, and a finished space your family can enjoy for years.
On-Site Design Consultation
We meet at your property to talk through style, fuel type, seating flow, drainage, and safe placement. Then we measure the space, review material options, and provide a clear estimate and timeline so you know exactly what to expect.
Site Prep and Expert Build
Once approved, we schedule your project, prepare the base, and install your fire pit with proper grading, compaction, and durable hardscape materials. We keep the work area organized and build with close attention to safety, function, and long-term performance.

After installation, we test the fire pit, inspect all finishing details, and complete a full site cleanup. Before we wrap up, we walk the project with you, answer questions, and make sure everything looks right and works exactly as it should.
Fire Pit Installation FAQs
Answers to the questions we hear most from homeowners in Macon and the surrounding areas. If you are thinking about adding a custom fire pit, we are happy to walk you through the options and give you honest guidance.
- How much does a fire pit installation cost?
The cost depends on the size, materials, location, and whether you want a wood-burning or gas fire pit. A simple backyard fire pit costs less than a fully custom outdoor living feature with seating, pavers, and gas line work. At Stokes Scapes, we give clear estimates with no guesswork. After we look at your space and goals, we can recommend options that fit your budget and your yard.
- Should I choose a wood-burning fire pit or a gas fire pit?
Both are great options. A wood-burning fire pit gives you the traditional crackle and campfire feel. A gas fire pit offers easy start-up, low maintenance, and a clean, consistent flame. We help you compare the look, upkeep, fuel source, and layout needs so you can choose the right fit for your outdoor space and how your family plans to use it.
- How long does a fire pit installation take?
Most fire pit installation projects can be completed in a few days, depending on the design, site conditions, and whether other hardscaping work is included. If your project also includes a patio, seating area, retaining wall, or outdoor kitchen features, the timeline may be longer. We will give you a realistic schedule upfront and keep you updated from start to finish.
- Will my fire pit be safe and built to code?
Yes. Safety is one of the biggest parts of a proper fire pit installation. We pay close attention to placement, clearance, materials, drainage, and construction details. Stokes Scapes is fully licensed and insured, and we build with care so your fire pit is designed for safe, long-term use. If permits or utility coordination are needed, we can help guide that process as well.
- Can you match the fire pit to my patio or backyard design?
Absolutely. We build custom fire pits that work with the style of your home and the rest of your landscape design. We can match or complement existing pavers, stone, seating walls, walkways, and outdoor living areas so the finished space feels complete. Our goal is to make your fire pit look like it belongs there, not like it was added as an afterthought.
- Why should I hire Stokes Scapes for fire pit installation?

Homer is a work-horse and was able to get the trees and overgrowth cleared out SO FAST. I’m so so so happy how my yard turned out. Now my kids finally have a place to run around and play.
