What’s Under Our Fire Pits

Fire pits are one of the simplest ways to upgrade your outdoor space with warmth and charm. In most cases, our team can build your new fire pit directly on top of existing patio pavers. If you prefer a recessed look, we’ll install it over a compact concrete footing for added support. Whether it’s a round, square, wood-burning, or a natural gas fire pit installation, every project follows strict manufacturer specifications. We make sure gas units are properly ventilated and wood-burning models include the right heat protection, ensuring both safety and long-term durability for your Nassau County home.

Location, Location, Location

Choosing the right spot for your fire pit is the first and most important step in the planning process. During your Nassau County fire pit installation, our team will help you find a safe and comfortable location that complements your patio layout. While the fire pit itself is typically 3–4 feet in diameter, it’s best to allow at least 100 square feet of open space around it (about 10×10 feet) for seating and easy movement. We also recommend positioning the fire pit away from trees and keeping a safe distance from your home. Our experienced installers ensure the placement is both practical and visually appealing.

Installation

In most cases, our Nassau County fire pit installation is completed directly on top of your patio pavers for a clean, seamless look. Some homeowners prefer a recessed design, where the fire pit is cut into the patio surface. In that case, we pour a small concrete footing for added support and finish the base with a decorative border—this option requires more time and labor but creates a beautiful, custom finish. Each layer of the fire pit is securely glued together, and once assembled, we install a metal ring inside to protect the block structure from heat damage and extend its lifespan.

Finishing Touch

To complete the installation, we fill the inside of the fire pit with sand up to the bottom of the metal ring. This layer serves as a stable base for your logs and helps keep the fire properly elevated. Adding decorative caps to the top edge gives the fire pit a polished, finished look and can be customized to match your patio design. While this feature may slightly increase the cost due to added materials and labor, it improves the overall appearance and value.

Our Nassau County fire pit installers are ready to help you create the perfect centerpiece for your outdoor space.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I just had my patio done and from start to finish everything went amazing. From the moment they came for an estimate, to the moment they finished, everything went smoothly. All the workers were professional and worked so fast. There were no hidden costs, no surprises. Kristina in the office keeps you informed step by step from the point they send the estimate, selecting the brick, start of the project and even throughout the project. She even sent photos of different color combinations as I was indecisive at first. Can't wait to enjoy my backyard with family and friends this summer. Will definitely be using them for future projects to come. Home projects can be stressful and feel like a chore between companies not showing up for estimates, hidden costs, poor workmanship, etc. That was not the case with James, Kristina and the rest of the crew. They made it feel like a breeze!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Affordable Patio is an amazing company! From the estimate, to the install and the clean up. We went online and more or less got a price on our own. We then scheduled an appointment with James, Kristina answered the phone and all of our questions, she’s was polite, knowledgeable and courteous! James came to give us an estimate and was able to figure out a way for us to get a fire pit! We always dreamed of a fire pit! When the install was getting done, the crew was courteous and walked us threw every step and cleaned up like we never had any work done! 5 ⭐️ I love them and recommend them to everyone!

From the initial email that I sent for a quote, to the meeting with James, to the final finished project, I have nothing but excellent things to say about this company. It was an absolute pleasure working with Kristina throughout this whole process. She was very attentive and very quick with responses and questions that I had. Joe and his crew did beautiful work on my patio. I highly recommend this company to anyone looking for a backyard transformation.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Recently had a patio done 18x 35 in size . The crew that came was one of the best that I have seen . They all worked as a team . The lead guy joe was great , explained every detail that was going to happen . They worked together and completed the job in a day and a half . The bob cat did rip up some grass but they brought in top soil and leveled. the  lawn to repair the damage . Clean up was just as good . The garbage was placed in bags , removed the dirt from the driveway . Filled the track marks with top soil . Did a great job and would use them again . The entire process was painless .
