Fire Pits for Southlake Homes
Southlake's mild fall and winter evenings make a fire pit one of the most used features in a backyard. Whether it is a simple wood-burning ring surrounded by Adirondack chairs or a gas fire feature built into a stone seat wall by the pool, a fire pit gives the yard a natural gathering spot from October through March. Getting the placement, sizing and fuel type right is what makes it comfortable and safe.
Local pros help you choose between wood and gas, set a safe distance from the house, trees and overhangs, and design seating around the fire. Wood-burning pits are usually built from stone or block with a steel liner. Gas fire pits use a burner, a gas line run by qualified trades and a finish such as fire glass, lava rock or ceramic logs. Many are paired with a paver or flagstone patio and seat walls.
Wooded lots near Shady Oaks Drive and in Clariden Ranch often suit a wood-burning pit in a gravel clearing away from the canopy, while pool decks in Timarron and Monticello often favor a clean gas fire table or bowl.
