What we do

A fire that keeps you outside after dark

An outdoor fireplace is what keeps you outside after dark in October and November. We've built fireplaces and fire pits since 1998, more than 1,500 of them, and a licensed landscape architect designs each one for the yard it sits in.

What we build

Outdoor fireplaces, fire pits, and the seating around them

The fire is the center of the space. The pad, surround, and seating flex to fit your budget and the look you want.

Fireplaces

A fireplace anchors one side of your patio and gives your chairs something warm to face on cool evenings.

Fire pits

A fire pit pulls everyone into a circle. We set it into your patio or give it a pad of its own.

Seat walls around the fire

A seat wall that rings the fire pit gives your guests a built-in place to sit and stay awhile.

Paver and block surrounds

Belgard and Techo-Bloc pavers and block form the pad and surround, in a wide range of colors and patterns.

Concrete pads

Plain concrete is the most budget-friendly pad. A stamp and color add texture and tone at a price close to pavers.

Stone, brick, and tile

Masonry takes the most hand labor and material. It's the premium choice for natural stone around your fire.

Why Sugar Hill Outdoors

Why homeowners choose us as their fire pit contractor

Rooted in North Georgia since 1997, we design and build every fire feature ourselves, under one residential and light commercial general contractor's license.

More than 1,500 built

We've designed and built fireplaces and fire pits since 1998, so your project draws on decades of finished work.

Landscape architects design it

Two licensed landscape architects, a protected title in Georgia, are on staff. One designs your fire feature, settling placement and seating before building begins.

Two paver certifications

Atlanta's first Belgard Master Craftsman and one of few in Georgia, a designation requiring a documented record of finished work. We're also Certified Techo-Pros.

Payments tied to milestones

You pay by milestone as each phase of your fireplace or fire pit is finished, so every payment follows work you can see.

Your fire pit installation, step by step

Every outdoor fireplace installation and fire pit build follows the same three steps, whatever the size of your project.

01 / DISCOVER

Design consultation

A licensed landscape architect spends one to two hours on your property, looking at grade, sun, and how you'll use the space around the fire.

02 / DESIGN

Your 3D design

About a week later, you see your fireplace or fire pit, surround, and seating in 3D, with permit-ready construction documents you own.

03 / BUILD

Installation

Depending on scope, installation can finish in a single day or run several months for a larger project.

North Georgia evenings

Made for North Georgia's cool evenings

Winters here are mild, and cool evenings are the norm across most of North Georgia from fall into winter. A fireplace or fire pit gives you a reason to stay out on those nights.

Fire pit and fireplace questions, answered

Here's what homeowners ask most before their fire feature goes in.

Fireplace and fire pit projects range from $3,000 to $50,000. Size and materials shape your number, and your design consultation sets the exact price for your yard.

In North Georgia, you'll get plenty of evenings out of one. Mild winters mean cool evenings are the norm from fall into winter, and a fireplace or fire pit keeps you outside long after dark. We've built more than 1,500 of them since 1998.

Start with the surround. Plain concrete is the most budget-friendly pad, and a stamp and color bring it close to the cost of pavers. Belgard or Techo-Bloc pavers and block are the next step up. Stone, brick, and tile cost the most because they take the most labor and material.

Yes. We design the whole space up front, so you can build it in phases as you're ready. We place and grade the first phase so the fire feature fits right in when its turn comes.

It comes down to how you like to gather. A fireplace anchors one side of your patio, and the seating faces it. A fire pit lets everyone circle the fire, and a seat wall around it gives your guests a place to sit. We design and build both.

The design consultation takes one to two hours, and your 3D design follows in about a week. Fire pit installation itself depends on scope. A simple project can finish in a day, and larger builds can run several months.

Yes. A fireplace or fire pit sits on the same graded, level pad a patio needs. Many North Georgia lots roll, so grading and leveling the pad is the first stage of every outdoor fireplace installation we do.

We build pads and surrounds with Belgard and Techo-Bloc, our two main paver and block brands. We were the first Belgard Master Craftsman in Atlanta, and we're Certified Techo-Pros with Techo-Bloc. You'll compare colors and patterns from both during your design.
