Outdoor Fireplace Construction

What This Service Involves

An outdoor fireplace gives your gathering space a natural anchor and extends comfortable evenings well into the shoulder seasons. We build masonry chimneys with proper firebox clearances, flue draft, and flashing so the unit performs safely in wet conditions. Gas models are plumbed and permitted to code, with weather-protected controls. Stone, brick, or stucco finishes are chosen to complement your home and stand up to constant Northwest moisture.
