Wanting to use the garden after dark
A fire pit with proper seating around it is one of the simplest ways to make a backyard usable through the cooler months.
We build fire pits across Brighton and the bayside suburbs, designed together with the seating and paving around them rather than dropped onto a random patch of lawn. A fire pit works best as a proper feature of the garden, not a metal ring sitting on its own.
Whether it's a built-in stone feature or a simpler freestanding setup, the location, wind direction and nearby planting all affect how well it actually gets used. Get in touch and we'll talk through what suits the space.

A fire pit is often added alongside a deck, patio or pergola as part of a wider outdoor living upgrade.
A permanent, built-in fire pit reads as part of the garden design rather than furniture that gets moved around.
A properly placed fire pit turns a backyard into somewhere worth sitting outside on a cooler Brighton evening, rather than a space that only gets used over summer. Built together with the paving and seating around it, and worked into the wider planting, the finished feature reads as a deliberate part of the garden rather than something added on afterwards.

A stone or block surround built into the garden, suited to a household that wants the look and sound of a real wood fire.
A cleaner, lower-maintenance option with instant on and off control, well suited to smaller courtyards or entertaining areas.
A simpler option for a smaller budget or a garden still being built out in stages, without the built-in surround.
We look at the location, wind and nearby planting, and give a clear quote before anything starts.
The fire pit gets built along with the seating and paving around it, as one connected feature.
You get a finished fire pit area ready to use, with any warranty on the work explained clearly at handover.
The fire pit and its seating get planned together, not treated as two separate purchases.
Wind direction and proximity to the house are worked out before the location is fixed, not left to chance.
The finished feature ties into paving, planting and any deck or patio nearby rather than sitting on its own.
