When you set a fire pit or fire table in your Regina yard, it needs a solid, level concrete slab underneath. We pour pads sized to your seating, finished for safe footing, and built to stay intact through Saskatchewan winters. The pad can stand alone or integrate with your outdoor living concrete, matching the finish and elevation of nearby patios and walkways.
A fire pit or fire table sits on concrete for three reasons. First, the slab carries the weight of the feature itself without settling or cracking. Second, concrete is non-combustible, so embers and radiant heat don't ignite the ground beneath. Third, a properly sized pad gives everyone sitting around it a level, stable place to stand or sit.
We pour the slab on a compacted base, set the thickness to match the load, finish it with a broom texture for grip in wet or icy conditions, and size the perimeter so chairs and benches sit at the right distance from the heat. The shape can be round, square, rectangular, or custom to fit your yard's layout.
We confirm what fire pit, fire table, or built-in feature you're installing, measure the footprint, and determine how much seating space you want around it, plus the clearance needed from the house and any structures.
Excavate and prepare the base
The area is dug to the right depth, a compacted granular base is laid for drainage and stability, and wooden or metal forms are set to the finished shape and a slight slope to shed water away.
Place and finish the concrete
Air-entrained concrete is delivered and poured into the forms, screeded level, and finished with a broom texture for traction. Reinforcement is placed to handle the load and the freeze-thaw stress.
Cut joints and cure
Control joints are cut on a grid to manage cracking, the slab is cured to schedule, and you receive a handoff date when the pad is ready to support your fire feature and the gathering around it.

How Fire-Pit Pads Connect to the Wider Yard
A fire-pit pad rarely stands alone. It works best when it's part of a larger outdoor concrete plan. Pair it with a patio for evening seating, an outdoor kitchen for cooking and prep, or a pool deck for poolside lounging.
When we design and pour all of these as one project, the finishes match, the elevations line up, and the whole yard feels intentional. The fire pit becomes the natural gathering hub, with concrete flowing from the house out to the seating, the kitchen, and the pool.
Size, clearance, non-combustible bases and how fire-pit pads fit a Regina yard.
Sized to the fire feature plus the seating around it plus clearance. The pad has to hold the fire feature centrally, give seating a stable base, and keep proper distance from the house and combustible structures. We size it for your specific feature.
Yes. Concrete itself does not burn. A properly built concrete pad is the textbook non-combustible base for a fire pit, fire table or chimenea, and the surrounding clearance keeps the heat away from anything that can burn.
Most. The pad accommodates fire pits, fire tables, chimeneas and even custom built-in features. We confirm the fire feature you have or plan to install when sizing the pad and the clearance around it.
Either works. Tied in, the patio and pad read as one continuous space, ideal when the seating spills over. Separate, the pad becomes a distinct gathering point. We design to your layout preference.
Not when poured and detailed properly. Air-entrained concrete with reinforcement and proper control joints handles the localised heat of a fire feature, especially when the feature itself is built to direct heat upward.

What Regina Homeowners Say About Their Fire-Pit Pads
Round concrete pad sized for our fire pit and six chairs. Stable underfoot, broom finish gives grip, and the kids can run around the seating without worry.

Pad ties into the patio so the whole back of the house feels like one space. Sat around the fire on snow days and the pad does not crack or move.

Free-form pad shaped to fit a corner of the yard. Looks intentional, fits the fire table exactly, and the clearance from the fence is right where the bylaw needs it.

Coordinated the fire-pit pad, the outdoor kitchen and the pool deck as one project. Everything matches, everything drains properly, and the yard finally feels finished.
