Custom fire and water features enhance your outdoor space with style and function. Unlike store-bought kits, these unique elements are tailored to fit your home’s design and your lifestyle, creating a seamless look that complements your architecture.
Fire features include gas or wood-burning fire pits, outdoor fireplaces, fire bowls, and linear flame features. These elements are perfect for gathering, relaxing, or extending the use of your patio to cooler months.
Water features can be anything from bubbling boulders and fountains to pondless waterfalls or cascading water walls. Whether integrated into a retaining wall, patio, or standalone garden feature, they bring movement and sound that instantly elevates the space.
Whether it’s a fire pit on the patio or a waterfall near the pool, these features naturally draw people in.
Custom features increase the appeal and resale value of your home.
Fire elements let you enjoy your outdoor space even when the temperatures drop.
The sight and sound of flowing water creates a peaceful, calming atmosphere.
They bring cohesion to patios, decks, and outdoor rooms.
When fire or water is involved, you need precision and experience. Hiring the wrong contractor—or trying to piece it together yourself—can lead to major issues, including:
• Gas leaks or poor ignition systems in fire pits or fireplaces.
• Water pump failures or incorrect plumbing that causes leaks or damage.
• Unsafe installation near structures, trees, or walkways.
• Clashing materials that don’t withstand heat, water, or weather.
• Inconsistent results from using multiple vendors or low-quality kits.
These features are meant to be enjoyed—not repaired. That’s why choosing the right team from the start matters.
We’ve completed a wide variety of fire and water feature projects—each one tailored to the homeowner’s style, space, and needs. Here are just a few examples:
1. Custom natural gas fire pit with a stone surround and built-in seating area on a raised paver patio
2. Outdoor fireplace with a wood storage niche, integrated into a three-season porch extension
3. Linear fire feature with LED lighting and glass wind guards, installed alongside a modern pool
4. Boulder water feature with recirculating flow, perfect for low-maintenance impact in tight spaces
5. Wall-mounted waterfall cascading into a backyard pond, paired with uplighting and landscaping
6. Fire and water combo feature, where a flame rises through a water basin—built to be both stunning and unique
Every project is custom, and we always start with the question: What’s the feeling you want to create in this space?
