Fire Pit FAQs

What is the best base for a fire pit?

The best material to use for a base for your backyard fire pit is simply paver base. It can be poured in place by the bag and tamped down to become very hard and stable. It’s a more stable choice than sand, and far safer than gravel which can pop and send small pieces of rock flying. 

Where should I put a fire pit in my yard?

There are a number of things to consider when planning the location for your backyard fire pit. For obvious reasons, you don’t want to build your fire pit under or near any trees and plantlife. You should also consider somewhere that has a natural windbreak if possible. It’s also wise to avoid installing a fire pit over underground utilities.
