Fire Pit Installation Process

Here's Exactly What Happens

First, we come look at your space and talk through what you actually want. Not what we think you should want – what works for your yard, your budget, and how you plan to use it.

Then we handle the permits and design work. You get to see exactly what it’ll look like before we break ground. No surprises, no “trust us, it’ll be great.”

Installation day, we show up when we say we will. We prep the area properly, build your fire pit to last, and clean up the job site. You get a fire feature that’s ready to use safely and looks like it belongs in your yard.

Gas and Wood Fire Pits

Built Right For Long Island Weather

You get options that actually make sense for your situation. Gas fire pits for easy lighting and consistent flame. Wood-burning fire pits for that authentic campfire experience. Both built with materials that handle coastal weather without falling apart.

We’re not talking about basic fire rings or cheap stone that cracks after one winter. These are custom fire features designed to complement your existing outdoor space and built with masonry techniques that last.

Every installation includes proper foundation work, drainage consideration, and safety clearances. Because a fire pit that looks great but doesn’t function safely isn’t worth having.

Do I need a permit for a fire pit in Lindenhurst?

Yes, most permanent fire pit installations in Lindenhurst require permits through Suffolk County. The requirements depend on the size, fuel type, and proximity to structures. We handle the permit application process as part of our service because we know exactly what the local codes require. Gas fire pits typically need different permits than wood-burning ones, and there are specific setback requirements from your house and property lines. Getting this wrong can mean expensive fixes later, so we make sure it’s done right from the start.
Gas fire pits light instantly with a switch or remote, burn cleaner, and don’t require wood storage or ash cleanup. They’re perfect if you want convenience and consistent flame control. Wood-burning fire pits give you that traditional campfire smell and crackling sound, plus you can cook over them. They require more maintenance and wood supply, but many people prefer the authentic experience. Both can be built beautifully – it really comes down to how you want to use your fire pit and how much maintenance you want to deal with.
Custom fire pit installations typically range from $3,000 to $8,000 depending on size, materials, fuel type, and site conditions. Simple wood-burning fire pits with basic stone work start lower, while elaborate gas fire features with premium materials and complex designs cost more. The price includes excavation, foundation work, materials, installation, and cleanup. We provide detailed estimates after seeing your space because factors like access, utilities, and your specific design preferences all affect the final cost. No hidden fees or surprise charges.
Most fire pit installations take 2-4 days depending on the complexity and weather conditions. Simple installations might be done in two days, while custom designs with extensive stonework or gas line installation take longer. We schedule the work to minimize disruption to your yard and daily routine. Gas fire pits sometimes require coordination with utility companies for gas line connections, which can add time to the overall project timeline. We’ll give you a realistic schedule upfront and keep you updated if anything changes during the work.
Natural stone like granite, bluestone, and fieldstone perform best in Long Island’s coastal climate because they handle freeze-thaw cycles and salt air without deteriorating. Concrete blocks and manufactured stone can work but may not last as long near the coast. For fire-resistant interior lining, we use firebrick or specialized refractory materials that won’t crack from heat expansion. The key is choosing materials that complement your existing landscape while standing up to our weather conditions. We’ll recommend specific options based on your style preferences and budget during the consultation.
It depends on your patio’s construction and local code requirements. Existing concrete patios can often support fire pit installation if they’re properly reinforced and meet setback requirements from structures. However, many patios need additional foundation work or heat-resistant materials underneath the fire pit area. We evaluate each situation individually because factors like patio thickness, drainage, and proximity to your house all matter for safety and code compliance. Sometimes it’s better to create a dedicated fire pit area adjacent to your existing patio for both safety and design reasons.
