Fire Pit Installation in Aurora
Starting at $3,500 · Serving Aurora and surrounding ON
Looking to add a fire pit to your backyard in Aurora, whether you’re in Bayview, Hills of St. Andrew, or Aurora Estates? If you're considering a new gathering spot for cooler evenings or want to enhance your outdoor living space, it's helpful to understand the process. We install custom fire pits designed for both enjoyment and durability, and we’re here to walk you through what’s involved from start to finish.
When we install a fire pit in Aurora, a good foundation is critical, especially with our local climate. We dig down past the frost line, typically around 4 feet deep in this region, to prevent shifting and cracking over time. This also accounts for the varying soil conditions often found across Aurora properties, which can range from clay to loamy sand. For wood-burning fire pits, proper ventilation and a safe, non-combustible liner are essential, along with a stable, level base. If you prefer gas, we coordinate with licensed gas technicians to run a dedicated gas line to the fire pit location and ensure all connections meet local codes, often burying lines discreetly. We offer various designs, including built-in stone structures with natural or manufactured stone, or custom gas-table fire features that integrate seamlessly with your patio. Regardless of the type, we always ensure adequate drainage is built into the base of the fire pit to manage rainwater and snowmelt, protecting your investment for year-round use and preventing water from compromising the structure.
Our quotes for a fire pit installation from Golden Maple Landscaping are designed to be straightforward and comprehensive. It starts with site preparation, which includes all necessary excavation and soil removal from your property. We then build a robust granular base using compacted crushed stone, ensuring a stable foundation that resists settling. All required materials are included, whether it’s for a concrete block, natural stone, or flagstone surround. For wood-burning pits, this covers the fire-rated block or steel insert. For gas units, it includes the burner system, lava rock or fire glass, and necessary connections. We also include edge restraint to define the fire pit’s perimeter and keep materials locked in place, along with polymeric sand to stabilize any paving stones around the feature. Finally, a thorough cleanup of the work area is always part of our service, leaving your new outdoor space ready to enjoy.
For most fire pit installations in Aurora, the project timeline typically runs from 2 to 5 days, depending on the complexity of the design, the type of fire pit, and the amount of excavation needed.

Depending on factors like the size of the fire pit, your choice of materials (e.g., natural stone vs. manufactured block), the addition of a gas line, and specific design elements, typical projects in Aurora generally range from $3,500 to $8,000. We’ll provide a detailed quote reflecting your specific choices.
