Fire pits and features that stretch backyard evenings into the cooler months.
A fire pit ties your San Antonio backyard together on those cool fall and winter evenings when the weather finally turns kind. Whether you own a historic property in Alamo Heights, a sprawling Stone Oak lot, or anything in between across Bexar County, a well-placed pit or feature extends your outdoor living season and gives you a reason to gather outside.
The tricky part here is the caliche and limestone your ground is made of. We know how to work with those dense soils and shelves, and we place every pit where drainage works, code allows, and the sight line from your house makes sense. We'll handle gas line coordination if you want a gas option, build stone or masonry surrounds that suit your lot, and often tie the whole thing into a seating wall.

We're a local, family-built company that treats your San Antonio property like our own — tidy crews, clear pricing, and fire pits & features that holds up to Bexar County conditions. Available as a one-time project or part of an ongoing plan.
Wood-burning fire pits give a traditional fire and crackle with no gas line, while gas fire pits offer instant, controllable, low-mess flame and are easy to use year-round. We build both and help you choose based on convenience, ambiance and local rules.
Rules vary by city and during burn bans, and gas features are generally allowed more broadly than open wood fires. We build fire features to code and place them safely, and we will help you understand local requirements for your property.
Cost depends on what you choose-wood or gas, the size of the surrounding hardscape, and whether we're integrating a seating wall. A simple pit runs less than a fully built stone feature. We'll give you a clear, honest estimate after looking at your lot. Call (737) 404-9343 to schedule.
Yes. Caliche and limestone are common here, and we work with them every job. The key is proper drainage and good footing below. We'll assess your specific ground conditions, clear and prep the site, and set your pit where water won't pool and the base stays stable.
Absolutely. Gas pits are cleaner, easier to use, and don't leave ash behind. We coordinate with your gas line and set up a safe, code-compliant installation. Many San Antonio homeowners in Stone Oak and Alamo Heights prefer gas because it's convenient and works well for gathering.
Code and safety require distance from structures and overhanging branches. The exact setback depends on your lot layout and what type of pit you choose. We know San Antonio and Bexar County codes inside out and will place your feature where it's safe, legal, and you'll actually use it.
Yes. A seating wall integrated into the feature is one of our most popular moves. It ties the pit to your patio or landscape, gives you places to sit, and makes the space feel complete. We'll design it to match your lot's slope and sight lines.
Most fire pit jobs finish in a few days to a week, depending on size and whether we're adding a seating wall or other hardscape. We'll give you a timeline when we visit for your free estimate.
