Fire Pits Contractor Serving El Dorado Hills & El Dorado County
If you're searching for fire pits in El Dorado Hills, CA, you want a contractor who actually knows the area — not a crew driving in blind from across the region. Pinnacle Pools and Landscape is a family-owned, licensed contractor (CA Lic. #892669) working throughout El Dorado Hills and El Dorado County, from Serrano, Blackstone, Promontory and beyond. We build custom pools and landscapes suited to El Dorado Hills' larger lots and hillside grading.
A well-built fire pit turns a backyard into a destination and stretches outdoor season deep into fall and winter evenings. We design and build custom fire pits and fire features — natural gas, propane, and wood-burning — as permanent masonry structures matched to your patio, pool deck, and landscape materials.
Every El Dorado Hills project starts the same way: a free on-site consultation and a fixed, itemized estimate. Slopes call for engineered retaining walls, terracing, and careful pool placement. We design with the grade rather than fighting it — often turning the slope into the yard's best feature.

How Your El Dorado Hills Project Works
Design & Placement
We choose the location for wind, clearances, view lines, and gas routing, and design the pit and seating to scale.
Footing & Utilities
Concrete footing is poured and gas and electrical lines are trenched and stubbed before the structure goes up.
Masonry Construction
Block core, fire-rated interior, veneer, and cap are built, with the burner system installed and leak-tested.
Finish & First Fire
Media (fire glass or lava rock), ignition, and controls are completed — then we light it together and walk through operation.

Hillside & Sloped Lots

Rocky Ground & Excavation
Parts of El Dorado Hills sit on rock that slows excavation. We assess dig conditions up front so your quote and schedule reflect reality, not surprises.
El Dorado County Permits & Fire Standards

How much does a custom fire pit cost?
Custom masonry fire pits typically range from $4,000 to $12,000+ depending on size, materials, and whether we're running a new gas line. Fire pit and seating wall packages built with a patio project are quoted together and are often the best value.
Gas or wood-burning — which fire pit is better?
Gas wins for convenience: instant on/off, no smoke, no embers, and fewer restrictions on burn days. Wood delivers the traditional campfire experience but is subject to local air-quality burn bans. Many clients choose gas for everyday use.
Do I need a permit for a fire pit?
Gas-plumbed fire pits generally require a permit for the gas line, and some cities have setback rules from structures and property lines. We handle permitting and build to your city's requirements as part of the project.
Can you add a fire pit to my existing patio?
Usually, yes. We saw-cut the existing concrete, pour a footing, trench the gas line, and build the pit to match your current hardscape. It's one of the highest-impact upgrades you can make to an existing backyard.
Can you build a pool on my sloped El Dorado Hills lot?
Almost certainly — sloped lots are our specialty here. Solutions range from engineered retaining walls and raised pool walls to stunning infinity-edge designs that use the drop-off as a feature. The 3D design will show exactly how it works on your grade.
