Permits, Codes & Clearance Planning
Help with permits, HOA submissions, setbacks and clearances so your fire feature is legal, insured and safe.
- Applies to: Gas lines, masonry, structures
- Documents: Site plan, drawings, specs
- HOA: Design review support
What it is, and why it works.
Fire features are regulated for good reason. Cities set rules for gas work, masonry structures and open burning, HOAs add design review and manufacturers publish clearances you must respect. Skipping the process can mean fines, forced removal or an insurance problem if something goes wrong.
We help with the paperwork and the planning: site plans showing setbacks, drawings for HOA review, permit submissions and inspection scheduling, plus clear clearance maps so your design is safe before it is built. Around Nashville and Middle Tennessee, rules vary by city and county, so we check yours first, not last.

Permits & Codes: common questions
Do I need a permit for a simple fire pit?
It depends on the city and the pit. Gas work and permanent masonry usually need one, while a simple portable wood pit may not. We check your area before building.
Can you help with HOA approval?
Yes. We prepare drawings, material samples and renderings that HOAs commonly request.
