Your evenings just got a whole lot better. A professionally installed fire pit transforms those quiet Rainbow Springs nights into something special—the kind of space where conversations flow as easily as the warmth from the flames.
You’re not just getting a fire feature. You’re getting a natural gathering spot that works year-round in Florida’s climate. While others struggle with complicated DIY projects that crack, shift, or fail safety inspections, you’ll have a properly engineered installation that handles our weather and brings real value to your property.
The difference is in the details. From strategic placement that considers wind patterns and safety distances to proper foundation work that prevents settling, professional installation means your investment pays off for decades, not just seasons.
Since 1995, we’ve been the family business Rainbow Springs residents trust for outdoor transformations that last. We understand this community—from the waterfront feel that drew you here to the laid-back lifestyle you want to protect.
We’re not just contractors passing through. We’re your neighbors, involved in hurricane cleanup, supporting local youth programs, and building alongside families who plan to stay. That’s why we do things right the first time, with beyond-meticulous attention to every detail.
As authorized contractors for Tremron, Flagstone, and Belgard, plus exclusive Seal ‘n Lock distributors in our county, we bring manufacturer-level expertise to your backyard. You get the peace of mind that comes from working with people invested in this community’s future.
We start with your vision and your space. During our consultation, we’ll walk your property together, discussing placement options that maximize enjoyment while meeting safety requirements. We consider everything—wind patterns, proximity to structures, and how the fire pit integrates with your existing landscape.
Next comes the precision work. We excavate and prepare the foundation, whether that’s building over your existing pavers or creating a custom concrete footing. Every fire pit gets proper base preparation, including the right materials and drainage to prevent issues down the road.
Installation day brings it all together. We build your fire pit using quality materials, install protective metal rings to prevent heat damage, and add the finishing touches like proper sand bedding and any custom features you’ve chosen. Before we leave, we walk you through safe operation and maintenance, so you’re ready to enjoy your new gathering space immediately.

Every Rainbow Springs property is different, and your fire pit should reflect that. We offer paver fire pits that integrate seamlessly with existing hardscapes, custom stone installations that complement your home’s architecture, and gas-ready options for those who want convenient, clean-burning fires.
In our area, we see everything from cozy 36-inch gathering spots perfect for intimate family evenings to larger installations designed for entertaining. The key is matching the size and style to how you actually live. Most of our Rainbow Springs clients love the 100-square-foot gathering area that a properly sized fire pit creates—enough room for comfortable seating without overwhelming smaller yards.
Material choices matter here in Florida. We use heat-resistant options that won’t crack under temperature changes, proper drainage systems that handle our seasonal rains, and finishes that age beautifully in our climate. Whether you prefer the classic look of brick, the natural appeal of stone, or the clean lines of concrete pavers, we’ll help you choose materials that deliver both beauty and longevity.
Fire pit installation in Rainbow Springs typically ranges from $1,000 to $4,000, depending on size, materials, and complexity. A basic paver fire pit built over existing hardscape starts around $1,200, while custom stone installations with gas lines can reach $3,500 or more.
The investment makes sense when you consider the return. Fire pits consistently add value to Rainbow Springs properties, and with our climate, you’ll use yours year-round. We provide detailed estimates that break down materials, labor, and any additional features, so you know exactly what you’re getting before we start.
Most of our clients find the cost comparable to a single family vacation, but the fire pit keeps delivering enjoyment for decades. We also offer military and first responder discounts for qualifying families.
Most basic fire pits in Rainbow Springs don’t require permits, but gas installations and certain sizes do need approval. We handle the permit research and application process for you, ensuring your installation meets all local codes and safety requirements.
The key factors that trigger permit requirements include gas line connections, electrical work for lighting, and fire pits over certain dimensions. We’re familiar with Citrus County regulations and work directly with local authorities to streamline approvals.
What matters most is safety compliance, not just permits. We build every fire pit to exceed local standards, regardless of permit requirements, because your family’s safety and your investment’s protection are what count. This approach also prevents issues if you ever sell your home.
Yes, we frequently build fire pits directly over existing paver patios, and it’s often the most cost-effective approach. The key is proper assessment of your current base and making any necessary reinforcements to handle the additional weight and heat.
We start by evaluating your existing paver installation—checking for proper compaction, adequate drainage, and structural integrity. Most quality paver installations in Rainbow Springs can support a fire pit with minimal modifications. When reinforcement is needed, we add concrete footings or additional base material as required.
Building over existing pavers saves time and money while creating a seamless look. Your fire pit appears integrated with your existing hardscape rather than looking like an afterthought. We can even match materials and patterns to make everything look like it was planned together from the beginning.
Wood-burning fire pits offer the authentic campfire experience—crackling sounds, wood smoke aroma, and the ability to cook over real flames. They’re typically less expensive to install but require ongoing wood purchases and more maintenance. The smoke also naturally deters mosquitoes, which is a real benefit in our area.
Gas fire pits provide instant, controllable flames with minimal cleanup and no smoke. They’re perfect for spontaneous gatherings and areas where smoke might be problematic. Installation costs more upfront due to gas line requirements, but operating costs stay consistent and low.
For Rainbow Springs residents, we often recommend considering your entertaining style. If you love the ritual of building fires and don’t mind the maintenance, wood-burning delivers that authentic experience. If you prefer convenience and clean operation, gas gives you instant ambiance whenever you want it.
Most fire pit installations in Rainbow Springs take 1-3 days, depending on complexity and weather conditions. Simple paver fire pits built over existing hardscape often complete in a single day, while custom stone installations with gas lines typically require 2-3 days.
The timeline includes site preparation, foundation work, building the fire pit structure, and final finishing touches. We don’t rush the process because proper curing time for adhesives and sealers ensures long-term durability. Weather can extend timelines, especially during our rainy season, but we’ll keep you informed throughout the process.
We schedule installations to minimize disruption to your daily routine and protect your existing landscaping. Most clients are surprised how quickly their backyard transforms from ordinary to extraordinary. Once we’re finished, you can typically use your new fire pit the same evening.
Yes, we stand behind our fire pit installations with comprehensive warranties that cover both materials and workmanship. Our standard warranty includes one year on installation workmanship and manufacturer warranties on all materials, which vary by product but typically range from 5-25 years.
What sets our warranty apart is our local commitment. We’re not going anywhere—we’ve been serving Citrus County since 1995, and we plan to be here for decades more. When warranty issues arise, you’re dealing with neighbors who care about their reputation in the community, not a distant corporate office.
We also provide detailed maintenance guidance to help you protect your investment. Simple annual maintenance like cleaning and sealing extends the life of your fire pit significantly. Most warranty claims we see could have been prevented with proper care, so we make sure you know how to keep your fire pit looking and performing like new.
