A wood-fired oven cooks with stored heat. A dome of firebrick sits on an insulated hearth, a small fire raises the temperature to the heat of an old brick oven and the masonry then holds that heat for hours. Getting the shape, the thickness and the insulation right is what makes it cook well.
We build domed pizza ovens as part of outdoor kitchens or as freestanding features clad in stone, along with bread ovens and masonry heaters that warm a room with long, even heat. Many Nashville backyards now have an oven as a centerpiece, and we design the base, the chimney and the finish to match the rest of the patio.
What you get

The hearth and dome are insulated so heat stays inside.

Stone or brick cladding blends into the yard.
The process
We choose the size, style and location and plan the base.
