At California Custom Decks, we find there are a number of benefits when designing outdoor fireplaces. Providing warmth and creating a cozy atmosphere, which allows you to enjoy your backyard even on the St. Louis cooler evenings. A fireplace can add to the aesthetics of your backyard, providing a focal point and enhancing the overall ambiance. Installing an outdoor fireplace can effectively extend your living space outdoors, providing a space to entertain guests or spend quality time with your family. And finally, an outdoor fireplace can especially increase the value of your home by enhancing your outdoor living space and providing an attractive feature that potential buyers may be looking for.

A great outdoor fireplace design should be carefully planned and designed to meet both the functional and aesthetic needs of the outdoor living space. At California Custom Decks, our team looks at several factors when designing the space:

LOCATION

The location of the outdoor fireplace should be carefully considered to ensure it is functional and aesthetically pleasing. At California Custom Decks, we look at factors such as wind patterns, sun exposure, and proximity to other outdoor living areas .

SIZE

We take into account that the size of the fireplace should be appropriate for the space and the intended use. A larger fireplace may be more suitable for a larger deck, while a smaller one may be better for a more intimate setting.

STYLE

At California Custom Decks, we feel that the style of the fireplace should complement the design of the outdoor living space. A traditional style may be more appropriate for a classic or rustic design, while a modern style may be better suited to a contemporary or minimalist design.

FUNCTIONALITY

We design the outdoor fireplace to meet your specific needs, whether it’s for cooking, entertaining, or simply providing warmth and ambiance. There are choices between the convenience of gas versus the rustic feel of the wood-burning fireplace.

ACCESSORIES

Accessories such as fire screens, grates, wooden or concrete mantels, and tools can add to the functionality and aesthetics of the fireplace, as well as enhance the safety of its use. Having a television installed above the fireplace box can create a fun entertaining area to watch the game!
