As a homeowner, you’re undoubtedly interested in ways you can increase the value of your property.  Consider giving your yard an upgrade by adding in an outdoor firepit when putting in a new patio. A patio increases the available living space on your property, which thereby increases your home’s market value.  Diamond Decks, a Patio Professional in Severna Park Maryland can help! 

Outdoor Fire Pit Uses

A fire pit adds light and warmth to your outdoor living space. If you have an interest in grilling or BBQing, your fire pit can also be used as a cooking space. Gathering around the fire pit, especially if you surround it with comfortable outdoor furniture, is a wonderful way to relax and socialize with your friends and family.

Fire pits are used most often in the spring and fall, but due to the warmth they provide, you can still use your firepit for some of the Maryland winters.

Fire Pit Styles

Most outdoor fire pits are constructed of concrete, brick, or stone, and create a space to safely build a wood or charcoal fire. They can be raised or sunken, depending on your preference. They can be round, square, or whatever shape best suits your aesthetic and your home’s general design. You can even create a fire pit table, which you might have seen in high-end restaurants or hotels.

Some styles include easily cleanable metal grills for outdoor cooking, or just to keep sparks from flying away. By adding matching benches, you invite people to consistently use the firepit. And depending on design, cleaning your firepit and surrounding elements can be as easy as rinsing off a concrete bench or wiping down a few small stone structures.
