Outdoor Fireplace Installation

Custom and kit outdoor fireplaces designed to anchor patios and outdoor gathering spaces.

Outdoor fireplaces create a more defined gathering area within a patio or outdoor living space. Unlike a fire pit, which is typically placed in the center of a seating area, fireplaces are often built along the edge of a patio to create a focal point.

At Himmel’s Landscape and Garden Center, we design and install outdoor fireplaces that fit naturally within patios, seating walls, and surrounding landscape features.

We Build Outdoor Fireplaces Using Custom Designs or Pre-Designed Kits

Outdoor fireplaces can be built from scratch or installed using pre-designed fireplace kits depending on the style of the patio and the homeowner’s preferences.

Some homeowners choose pre-designed kits, which provide a structured layout and consistent materials that match nearby patios. Others prefer a fully custom fireplace, where the size, shape, and materials are selected to fit the overall landscape design.

What Materials Can Be Used to Build Your Outdoor Fireplace?

Outdoor fireplaces are typically constructed using durable masonry materials that coordinate with the surrounding patio.

Wall block systems from manufacturers such as Nicolock, Cambridge, and Techo-Bloc are commonly used because they pair well with paver patios and seating walls. Some homeowners also choose fireplaces finished with natural stone veneer or stacked stone to create a more rustic appearance.

These materials allow the fireplace to feel consistent with the rest of the outdoor living space.

Choose Whether Your Outdoor Fireplace Will Run on Wood, Gas, or Propane

Outdoor fireplaces can be designed to burn wood, natural gas, or propane, depending on how the feature will be used.

• Wood-burning: A wood-burning fireplace creates the traditional experience of a natural fire and is often chosen by homeowners who enjoy the look, sound, and smell of burning wood.
• Natural gas: Gas fireplaces provide convenience and can be turned on quickly without needing to start or maintain a wood fire.
• Propane: Propane fireplaces offer similar convenience and are often used when a permanent gas line is not available.
