Think about all the lovely spring and summer nights you can spend gathered around your new fire pit!
Spring is coming! The calendar says it is officially spring starting this Sunday, March 20th. When it finally warms up out, you’ll be ready to enjoy time outside in your outdoor living space. But what happens when the sun sets for the night? It gets significantly cooler, right? Well, what if you aren’t done being outside by the time the temperature drops? Build a fire pit, of course!
Benefits of Hardscaping to Build a Fire Pit
So you may be thinking, “Why do I need to build a fire pit when I can just buy one of those cheaper, portable metal-dish-type fire pits?” Well, dear reader, the answer is right there in your question. “Cheaper.” While they may get the job done, they won’t truly add to your outdoor living space in the way that a hardscaped one can. Here are some things to consider about having us build you a hardscaped fire pit:
- It’ll look a lot better. The fact of the matter is that a hardscaped fire pit looks so much better in your backyard than a little metal bowl on legs would. Especially if you’ve already enjoyed some of our other hardscaping services, we can work with existing features to build a fire pit that meshes seamlessly and gorgeously with the rest of your outdoor living space. Even if you haven’t already hardscaped at all, a fire pit is a great and fully customizeable way to get started!
- It’ll function a lot better. Sure, a fire pit is a fire pit — as long as it contains the fire without, y’know, combusting, it’s technically doing its job. However, a standalone metal fire pit can rust, harming its structural integrity. A hardscaped fire pit, on the other hand, will stand tough through harsh conditions.
- It’s worth the investment. Sure, there’s more money down when you have a custom hardscaped fire pit installed, but think about how that investment can benefit you in the future. Aside from an overall more enjoyable fire pit experience, you’ll have to worry less about replacing it, and it can add significant value to your home if you ever decide it’s time to sell.
If you couldn’t tell, we highly recommend a hardscaped fire pit over a standalone, unincorporated one. We promise we aren’t biased. If the above hasn’t convinced you, give us a call to discuss your options for building a fire pit at your home. Comfortable spring evenings are right around the corner!
