Fireplaces & Firepits
Phoenix nights cool off fast.
An outdoor fireplace or fire pit is what makes a backyard usable nine months out of the year.Citiscapes builds both, from simple circular fire pits to full masonry fireplaces with a hearth, mantle, and seating wall.
How a fireplace or fire pit is built: Fire features require a proper concrete footing poured below grade and sized for the structure's weight. The firebox and surround are built with refractory brick and mortar rated for sustained heat exposure. Gas features require a licensed gas line and certified valve and burner kit. Wood-burning structures need proper clearances and a cap or spark screen. Finish work — stone, stucco, tile, or plaster — is applied last and sealed for outdoor exposure.
Citiscapes builds custom fireplaces and fire pits for outdoor living spaces across Phoenix, Scottsdale, and Paradise Valley. We design everything from freestanding circular gas fire pits to full outdoor fireplaces with a masonry surround, raised hearth, and matching seating wall — built to anchor the backyard.
Gas fire features are the most popular choice for Phoenix homeowners. They're easy to use, produce no ash or embers, and operate like any gas appliance. We run a dedicated gas line, install a quality burner kit rated for the vessel size, and test everything before the project closes out.
We're fireplace and firepit experts!
For clients who want a wood-burning fireplace, we build masonry structures with proper firebox dimensions, a functioning throat and damper, and a chimney or cap that meets code for outdoor structures. It's a bigger build — but the experience of a real wood fire on an Arizona evening is hard to argue with.
The finish sets the tone for the whole space. We've clad fireplace surrounds in stacked ledger stone, travertine, smooth stucco, and large-format porcelain. Whatever direction you take, Citiscapes builds it to last.
