Fire Pits & Outdoor Fireplaces in Matthews, NC
Wood-burning and gas fire features — stone fireplaces with chimneys, built-in fire pits, fire tables and surrounding seating.
Fire Pits & Fireplaces built for Matthews properties
Matthews combines a historic downtown with established neighborhoods and mature trees. Many homes are 20 to 40 years old, so projects often replace worn patios, failing walls and tired plantings while working around large roots.
A fireplace is a masonry structure, not an accessory. We pour a footing, build the firebox and chimney to draft correctly, line it with firebrick, and face it in stone or brick that matches your hardscape. The result throws heat, vents smoke away from the seating area, and becomes the anchor the rest of the patio is designed around.
Fire pits are faster and just as usable. Wood-burning versions get a steel or masonry liner; gas versions get a burner, key valve and safe gas run installed before the hardscape closes up. We build the seating walls, patio and lighting around the feature so the whole area works as one space after dark.

Common Questions
Fire Pits & Fireplaces in Matthews: FAQs
Do you offer fire pits & outdoor fireplaces in Matthews, NC?
Yes. Matthews is part of our regular service area from our base in Cornelius, NC. We work in downtown Matthews, Sardis Road, Fullwood and neighborhoods off Weddington Road, and every project gets a free on-site visit and a written quote.
Do I need a permit for fire pits & outdoor fireplaces in Matthews?
Gas lines and permanent masonry fireplaces usually need a permit, and wood-burning fire pits must follow local burn rules. Matthews handles zoning and tree rules, and building permits run through Mecklenburg County Code Enforcement. We confirm the requirements for your address before work starts.
How soon can you start a project in Matthews?
We usually schedule the on-site visit within a few days of your call. Start dates depend on the season, the size of the job and any HOA or permit approvals, and we give you a clear schedule window in your written quote.
Gas or wood-burning?
Gas turns on instantly and makes no mess; wood gives real heat, crackle and cooking. We build both, and can run gas to a wood-look burner if you want the middle ground.
How close can a fire pit be to the house or a pergola?
There are clearance requirements that depend on the feature and structure. We plan placement to meet them — that is part of the layout work, not an afterthought.
Can a fire feature be added to an existing patio?
Yes. We open the area, pour the footing, build the feature and reset the surrounding pavers so the patio looks untouched.
