Gold Coast Fire Pits
Fire pits add warmth, light and atmosphere to any backyard space. At Turnscape Landscaping, we design and install fire pits across the Gold Coast that are simple, safe and built to suit your lifestyle.
Whether it’s a spot for weekend catch-ups, family nights or just some quiet time outdoors, a fire pit helps bring it all together. We work with natural materials and solid construction methods to ensure your fire pit looks great and holds up over time.
No matter your space, we can help you create a focal point that works with the rest of your yard. You’ll get a clean, finished result without unnecessary extras or delays.

Well-Placed Warmth That Lasts
Fire pits should be as functional as they are inviting. From layout to location, every decision plays a part in how it feels and performs.
Here’s what we take into account:
- Design Style: Choose a round, square or custom shape to match your yard’s layout.
- Material Selection: Built using durable blocks, stone or brick suited to outdoor heat.
- Safety Spacing: We place fire pits with safe distances from structures, plants and seating.
- Base Prep: A level, fire-safe foundation ensures it stays stable and contained.
- Placement Impact: We help you position it to make the most of your space and view.

Do fire pits need council approval?
In many areas, small backyard fire pits don’t require council approval if they follow local safety rules. However, requirements can vary depending on the type of fire pit, location and fire bans in your area.
It’s always best to check with your local council before installing a fire feature. Portable fire pits may have fewer restrictions than permanent, built-in versions.
What materials are best for fire pits?
The best materials for fire pits are those that handle heat well and won’t crack or deteriorate with exposure. Brick, concrete blocks, and natural stone are common choices.
Steel inserts are often used to protect the inner walls. Avoid using untreated or porous materials like regular pavers or standard concrete, as they may not hold up to high temperatures.
How far should a fire pit be from a house?
A fire pit should generally be placed at least 3 to 5 metres away from any structure, including your house, sheds or fences. This distance reduces the risk of heat damage or stray sparks reaching flammable materials.
The space around the fire pit should also be clear of overhanging branches and dry plants. Local regulations may also specify minimum clearance, so it’s worth confirming before installation.
