Can my landscaper build the fire pit enclosure while a licensed gas company installs the burner and gas line?
Yes — right here in Asheville, your landscaper or mason builds the paver or stone enclosure and we handle every part that touches fuel. Since we're headquartered on Emma Rd in West Asheville, it's easy to have us on site during the rough-in, tap your natural-gas line, set the burner, and pull the Buncombe County permit.
The local advantage: we're up the road
Because our showroom sits at 629 Emma Rd in West Asheville, most of our fire-pit coordination in Montford, North Asheville, and Biltmore Village happens face to face. We walk the patio with your hardscaper before the block goes up, confirm where the buried gas line will surface, and mark the burner-pan opening so their stonework and our fire meet on the first try — no rework and no wasted second trip. Being local also means we can swing back through during the build if the plan shifts.
Gas-main country shapes the plan
Most of Asheville sits on natural-gas mains, so we usually tap an existing meter rather than set a propane tank. That means confirming your meter has capacity for the added outdoor load, running an outdoor-rated buried line to the pit, adding a key valve and reachable shutoff, and pressure-testing before anything gets capped. It's licensed work: a landscaper or mason can build a beautiful enclosure, but in North Carolina only a licensed gas contractor can legally connect it to fuel. And with elevation keeping our nights in the 20s well into early spring, that outdoor flame earns its keep far beyond summer.
One accountable crew on the fire
Your builder owns the base, the drainage, and the finished stone; we own the burner, the line, the venting, and the Buncombe County inspection. Keeping the fuel side with one licensed company protects your homeowner's insurance and keeps the whole outdoor project clean and documented. Get us in during the rough-in stage, before the pit is sealed, and the handoff is seamless. Call (828) 545-0525 and we'll get on your hardscaper's schedule.
