Outdoor Fire Pits

Whether for family fun or a relaxing conversation with friends, fire pits are a great way to bring people together. They can be custom-built to your specific needs or purchased pre-built.

Our San Diego outdoor fire pits are designed to be the focal points of your outdoor living space. We offer different styles with added features such as built-in seating, lighting or cooking grates, from simple and rustic designs to modern and sleek options.

The typical size of a fire pit ranges between 40 to 48 inches and can be built in various styles creating a unique feature for your home. The most popular shapes are round or square, and they can be made from different materials, such as stone, brick, metal or concrete.

Outdoor Fire Place

At Better Place Remodeling, we have no creative limits when designing and building your San Diego outdoor fireplace and other outdoor space modifications.

Generally, outdoor fireplaces are the most efficient heat-generating option among fire features. They have an elegant look, making them a staple of traditional outdoor living. Besides, they are durable and can create a focal point in your outdoor space.

When designing and building your outdoor fireplace, we consider San Diego ordinances and installation requirements and pull all the required permits.

Outdoor Fire Bowls

Fire bowls are a stylish addition to your San Diego outdoor space, adding visual interest and ambiance to patios, pools, and spas. They are made from brass, copper, concrete, or ceramic and can be filled with fire glass or lava rocks for added aesthetic appeal.

These fire features require a gas line for operation and may include a self-starting feature that you can control remotely.

While primarily used for aesthetics, fire bowls provide light and heat, making them functional and beautiful. They are associated with modern design aesthetics but can also be customized to fit more traditional styles.

    My wife and I hired Better Place Remodeling on May 7, 2020, and our project was completed on August 31, 2020. Evi was the first person with whom we made in-person contact, and let me tell you, he exuded nothing but professionalism, courtesy, and respect to both my wife and me! Having hired F.A.T. Construction prior under the general foreman Tony Chavez and having a VERY POOR experience with that contractor, my wife and I were very skeptical, to say the least. Evi quickly earned our trust and our business through his constant contact and updates. He always kept my wife in the loop with all major decisions during the project. Had I not continuously kept adding more to the project, Evi and his crew would have finished a lot sooner than expected. Evi even went so far as to bring us his favorite type of coffee direct from Israel as we had a good working relationship. The one time I got frustrated at the job was nothing to do with Better Place Remodeling, but rather the City of Escondido with their slow permit approval process due to COVID-19. Even though this wasn't Evi's fault, he even brought me Starbucks coffee one night and further explained the backlog of permits. I also would like to send a shout-out to Barr and to Evi's top Landscaper Herman. Barr stepped in and helped Evi with our project when Evi's plate was full. Barr also exuded the same professionalism, courtesy, and respect to both my wife and me! Herman? What can I say? The guy has landscaping skills! Let him make suggestions to you and be open-minded about them-you will not be disappointed! Thanks, Evi, Barr, and Herman for such tremendous work on our home!

      FAQs

      Given that this may be a new experience, we provide you with the insights, information and resources to understand your fireplace and fire pit design and installation process.

      1 Is an Outdoor Fireplace Worth It?

      Absolutely. San Diego outdoor fireplaces and pits can be a great addition to your property. They provide warmth, ambiance and are a focal point for your outdoor space. Besides, adding value to your home.

      2 Which is Better, an Outdoor Fireplace or Fire Pit?

      Both outdoor fireplaces and fire pits have unique benefits, and the best option depends on your specific needs and preferences.

      Outdoor fireplaces are permanent structures that generate more heat and could be used for cooking, and we can design them to match your home’s style.

      Fire pits are portable and a great option for a casual gathering place. They are perfect for roasting marshmallows or making s‘mores.

      3 Do Outdoor Fireplaces Need To Be Vented?

      Yes, outdoor fireplaces need to be vented. The venting is needed to safely remove the smoke and combustion by-products produced when the fire is burning. The venting can be achieved through a chimney or a direct vent system.

      4 Can You Pit an Outdoor Fireplace on a Deck?

      We can install an outdoor fireplace on a deck; however, there are certain factors we will have to consider before doing so, including getting the permits, installing a protective barrier to keep the fire contained within the pit, and ensuring the deck can support the weight of the fireplace.
