Firepits & outdoor living

Firepits and outdoor living areas in eastern Idaho

Firepits, seat walls, pool surrounds and full outdoor entertainment areas — the parts of a yard people actually use.

Build it in, don't set it on top

A firepit dropped onto a finished patio always looks dropped on. Building it into the paver field — with the surrounding courses cut around it and a seating radius planned into the layout — costs very little more when it's done at the same time, and it's the difference between a feature and an accessory.

The same applies to seat walls. A wall built as part of the patio ties into the base and the border course. One added two years later sits on top of a finished surface and reads that way.

What we build in this category

  • Wood-burning and gas firepits, round or square
  • Seat walls and low retaining walls that double as seating
  • Pool surrounds and spa decks
  • Outdoor kitchen and grill bases
  • Pergola footings integrated into the paver field
  • Steps, landings and level changes between zones

Gas or wood

Wood-burning pits cost less to build and give you the fire people picture when they imagine a firepit. Gas costs more up front, requires a line run, and gives you instant on and off with no smoke, no ash and no burn ban interruptions.

If there's any chance you'll want gas later, have the line sleeved during installation. Running it afterwards means opening the patio back up.

Reviews

What customers say about this work.

★★★★★

We are beyond happy with how our retaining wall and fire pit patio turned out! From the very beginning, they were easy to work with, communicated well, and genuinely cared about doing the job right. They paid attention to every detail, and the finished project is even better than we imagined.

Our backyard has been completely transformed into a space our family can enjoy for years to come. You can tell they take a lot of pride in their work, and it shows in the quality of the finished product.

If you’re looking for someone who is honest, hardworking, and does beautiful work, we can’t recommend them enough. We will definitely be hiring them again for future projects!

High Quality Pavers was an excellent choice when we needed a large patio built with gas timer fire pit. Bernie and his crew always arrived when they said they would, worked hard and installed the job in the time frame they said. The patio has changed the landscaping feel and added so much to the property look and fell. I highly recommend High Quality Pavers to anyone needing stone work done.

Questions

Common questions

How big should the patio around a firepit be?

Plan for at least seven feet of clear space between the pit edge and anything behind the seating, so chairs can be pushed back without leaving the paved surface. That's the measurement people most often come up short on.

Gas or wood-burning firepit?

Wood costs less to build and gives you a real fire. Gas costs more up front and needs a line run, but turns on instantly with no smoke or ash. If gas is a maybe, sleeve the line during installation — retrofitting means reopening the patio.

Can you build a firepit into an existing patio?

Often yes. We lift the pavers in the pit area, build the structure, and cut the surrounding courses back in. It's more labour than building it in from the start, but far less disruptive than people expect.
