Fireplaces and Fire Pits That Bring People Together
Few elements make an outdoor space more inviting than the warmth and glow of a fire. Whether it’s a cool fall evening or a summer night under the stars, an outdoor fireplace or fire pit creates the perfect backdrop for conversation, relaxation, and connection. At McHale Landscape Design, our team of landscape architects designs and builds fire features that blend comfort, craftsmanship, and timeless beauty.
A custom fireplace or fire pit can turn your residential landscape into a gathering space that draws family and friends together. From roasting marshmallows to sharing a glass of wine beside the flames, these installations add year-round enjoyment and visual appeal to your outdoor living spaces.
Designed for Ambiance and Comfort
A well-designed outdoor fireplace extends the seasons, allowing you to enjoy your garden design and patio long after summer ends. It also helps keep bugs at bay, adds natural light and warmth, and creates a focal point for your backyard gatherings.
Our design-build process ensures each feature complements your home’s architecture and surrounding landscape. Whether crafted from stone, brick, or concrete, every element is built with care and precision. McHale Landscape Design’s craftsmen integrate your fire feature seamlessly into patios, seating areas, and cocinas exteriores for a cohesive and functional space.
Built to Enhance Your Outdoor Living Space
A professionally installed outdoor fireplace does more than add beauty, it enhances the overall value and enjoyment of your property. Homeowners often see improved curb appeal and a noticeable boost in usable space. Fire features are equally suited for large estates and intimate gardens, offering design flexibility for any residential landscape.
You can customize your fireplace or fire pit with:
- Wood-burning, gas, or propane systems
- Stone or brick surrounds to match existing hardscapes
- Integrated seating and lighting for comfort and style
- Custom mantels, hearths, and storage solutions
Every detail is designed to complement your landscape architecture and create an atmosphere that feels natural, welcoming, and distinctly yours.
