Let’s explore the enchanting world of fire features and how they can transform your landscape into a haven of warmth and beauty.
Propane Fire Tables: $
Propane features are a great low budget option to add fire to your landscape. Having the flexibility to move the feature around means you can change the use and set up of your space with ease. This flexibility is great when hosting large gatherings where it would be beneficial to change up the arrangements. Propane heaters are also a great option to add additional warmth on a chilly day or extend the use of your space into the season.
Wood Burning Fire Pits $
Fire pits have evolved beyond simple bonfires; they are now stylish and versatile focal points for outdoor spaces. Whether made from natural stone, metal, or other materials, fire pits create a gathering place for friends and family. The warmth radiating from the flames fosters a cozy atmosphere, perfect for storytelling, roasting marshmallows, or simply enjoying the starlit sky. Be mindful of your township bylaws as some prohibit the use of wood burning units.
Gas Fire Tables and Bowls: $$
For those seeking a more contemporary look, fire bowls are the epitome of sculptural elegance. These artistic creations come in various shapes and sizes, adding a modern flair to your landscape. Fire bowls often serve as focal points, creating visual interest and enhancing the overall design of your outdoor space. Fire tables take this one step further and provide versatility in entertaining. Fire tables give the option to use them as a space to set food and drink when not in use.
Fireplaces and Fire Walls: $$$
An outdoor fireplace adds a touch of sophistication to your landscape design. With various styles and materials to choose from, these structures seamlessly blend with the natural surroundings. A well-designed fireplace can transform your patio or backyard into an extension of your living space, offering warmth and ambiance during cooler evenings.
Combining Fire & Water: $$$
Combining the soothing sounds of water with the captivating dance of flames creates a harmonious synergy in your landscape.
