Custom stone firepit in a Chicago-area backyard gathering space

Custom Stone Firepits in Chicago

Create a welcoming backyard gathering place with a custom stone firepit in Chicago and the North Shore. C.O. Landscaping & Natural Stone designs and builds fire features that complement patios, seating areas, masonry, and the overall landscape.

Firepit size, shape, fuel type, material, seating layout, clearances, and access should work together. We plan each feature around the property, how you entertain, and the surrounding outdoor-living space.

Our Custom Stone Firepit Installation Process

1. Site and Use Review

We discuss fuel preference, gathering size, seating, circulation, views, nearby features, and practical clearances.

2. Design and Material Selection

The shape, dimensions, stone or brick, cap, and relationship to the patio are developed for the space.

3. Foundation and Utility Coordination

The base is prepared and any required fuel-system coordination is addressed for the selected design.

4. Masonry Construction

The firepit is built and finished as part of a cohesive outdoor-living area.

Planned for Chicago-Area Conditions

Chicago’s cool evenings make a fire feature a natural focal point, while winter weather makes suitable materials, base preparation, and drainage important to lasting performance. Project details should also account for applicable local requirements.
