Perhaps you are ready to install a new outdoor fireplace, or already own one and are looking to spruce up the appearance. Whatever your reasoning, you’ll find a plethora of stone options to match your specific tastes. Done correctly with the right accessories, an outdoor fireplace can be a second living room.

Before getting started on the stone selection, we must first choose where the new addition will go.

Typical placement of an outdoor fireplace is on a patio or deck, someplace adjacent to the home. For something a little different, you may want to think about setting up your fireplace a little further away in its own special location in the backyard.

Once you’ve figured out placement, you can begin making your choice of stone. The possibilities are endless, providing you with unlimited design combinations. Choose a Jerusalem Cleft brick frame with a limestone mantel for a complementary design. Or, match a Grey Gold Tumbled brick surround with a granite mantel. Visit our Stone Fabrication and Material Collections pages for better visualization of the options that are available to you.

Whatever you choose, remember that installing an outdoor fireplace is not only an aesthetic upgrade, but it also increases the property value of your home, and makes for a key selling angle should you ever decide to place your home on the market.
