The holidays are over and the much-anticipated cooler temperatures are here; perfect timing to cozy-up to a warm fire.
Here’s How…
STEP 1
Draw a 49” diameter circle with marking paint on the lawn. Remove all sod inside of the circle and make it approximately 2” deep.
STEP 2
Be sure to level the soil
STEP 3
Add approximately 2” of paver base to the circle and spread evenly. Moisten paver base to aid compaction. Using a tamper, pack the entire area until firm. Then, add another inch of paver base. Level.
STEP 4
Place stones on the circumstance of the paver base to make a circle. Be sure to lay tightly and level.
STEP 5
After the first layer of stone is set, lay another layer on top. Attach layers with concrete adhesive and press firmly.
STEP 6
After the second layer is finished, lay a third layer and attach with concrete adhesive.
STEP 7
After all stones are set, install the fire ring and be sure the adhesive cure time has passed.
STEP 8
Pour lava rock into the bottom of the fire pit until the level reaches the bottom of the fire ring.
