Outdoor Fireplace Builder in Neptune Beach, FL

Custom outdoor fireplaces for Neptune Beach: stone, stucco and linear designs that anchor your outdoor living room.

For many Neptune Beach families, the fireplace is the reason the covered patio gets used all winter. We plan it with the structure, the seating and the TV so the whole room works together. Neptune Beach is its own city, separate from Jacksonville Beach and the City of Jacksonville, and it runs its own permitting.

Designing an Outdoor Fireplace in Neptune Beach

Stone-clad fireplace. A traditional look in natural or veneer stone.
Linear gas fireplace. A modern firebox with a TV wall above.
Wood-burning. The real crackle on a cool night.
Hearth seating. A raised hearth that doubles as a bench.

Before leaving a fire, NFPA advises dousing it with water and making sure the area is cool to the touch.

Planning an Outdoor Fireplace in Neptune Beach

Neptune Beach caps impervious surface on residential lots, so the patio material can matter as much as the size. A steady sea breeze decides where a fire feature can sit, so we place it in the lee of the house or a wall.

A fireplace needs room around it. We plan clearances to the roof, walls and furniture before choosing the size. Before we draw an outdoor fireplace in Neptune Beach, we check clearances to the roof and walls, whether a TV goes above and which finish matches the house.

UF/IFAS advises planning your power needs for cooking and lighting early when designing an outdoor living space.

Review Boards and Permits in Neptune Beach

Few Neptune Beach streets have an architectural review board, but the City's coverage limits apply to every lot. For an outdoor fireplace, review boards usually want the height, the finish and the location on the lot. Confirm current guidelines with your association.

Permits in Neptune Beach go to the City, not Jacksonville or Jacksonville Beach. We prepare the site plan with coverage and setbacks shown. Every permitted structure gets its necessary engineered documents.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is there a minimum budget for an outdoor fireplace in Neptune Beach? Yes. Every AY Luxury Designs project has a $10,000 minimum. Beyond that, the cost depends on gas or wood; mantel, hearth and TV; the structure around it; the size and style; and permits, and your fully itemized custom quote comes within 24 hours of your consultation.

Can an outdoor fireplace go under a gazebo? Yes, with the right design and clearances. Many of our fireplaces sit under a gazebo or inside a screen room.

Can you add seating walls beside the fireplace? Yes. Seating walls on each side give the fireplace presence and add places to sit.

Who issues building permits in Neptune Beach? The City of Neptune Beach Community Development Department, not the City of Jacksonville. We prepare the site plan and permit package and submit it for you.

Does my Neptune Beach home need HOA approval for an outdoor fireplace? Many Neptune Beach homes have no HOA, so the City's zoning is what applies. If your street has deed restrictions or an association, we prepare that package as well. Confirm current guidelines with your association.
