Our Process Makes Us Unique

Years ago StoneFire started to create our own PCU, Pre-Constructed Units. By Pre-Constructing our most commonly used structures such as fireplaces, fire pits, seating walls, wood burning ovens and grill islands, we ensure quality, consistency, and savings in cost and time.

Instead of spending weeks in a customers backyard building these structures out of cynder blocks and doing the stone work on site, we will build them ahead of time in our shop which is a controlled enviroment and deliver these units 95% complete to the site. Once the PCU’s are placed on the recommended footings we will finish them off on site. Our unique approach has enabled us to install fireplaces within 3 days after we start site prep, cutting time on site by more than half and never mind the mess in the yard!

Pre-constructed Units

This whole idea started as we thought of ways to cut time of installations and try to keep our employees busy during the winter months in New England. We fabricate, stock and stone finish all our PCU’s products in our Westborough facility.

With a variety of stone selections, styles and trim to chose from our Showroom on Rt 9E in Westborough has been the best tool for material selection. Our staff has the knowledge and common sense to guide our customers throughout the process.

Once a customer has made a decision on their desired unit and has made their material selection the hard work starts in our shop!

Quick Installation

Once the proper footings are finished the units are delivered to customers site and set in place. Once all units have been delivered to its final location our masons finishes button up the units on site.

Enjoyment

Less work on site means means less disruption of your property and your life. It also helps us to keep our costs down which we pass onto you. 

Here are some of our PCU Fireplaces!

It all started when...

Giuseppe Ventriglia, or Joe as many call him, always had a passion for stonework, having been part of a family business which originated in Italy. After a successful career in high technology, Joe’s part-time masonry work became a full-time business.

In 2001, Joe Created Terrascaping and Construction to create beautiful outdoor living spaces around Westborough, Boston and Metrowest. It grew to include dedicated teams of expert designers, masons, landscapers, project managers and support staff with a year-round fabrication facility, warehouse, and office space. During this time, using techniques learned from the high technology industry and with his team they perfected a proprietary method of fabricating high end pre-constructed masonry fireplaces, firepits, bars, wood burning ovens and seating walls which can be customized to order. The result is better value, consistency, quality, and quick delivery with minimal disruption and time on-site.

In 2013, as the Outdoor Living masonry business grew, Joe added Stonefire by Design, a retail showroom on Route 9 East in Westborough. With multiple functioning Outdoor Living spaces using his pre-constructed products as well as various natural and man-made hardscape and accessories. The showroom serves as an inspiration center for both homeowners and landscape designers who can stroll through and experience examples of fully functional, finished Outdoor Living spaces, fine tuning their selections of stone finishes, pavers,and accessories to match their property, taste and budget.

In 2017, with the growth of the StoneFire brand and the focus on the overall Outdoor Living experience, Joe combined Terrascaping and Stonefire into Stonefire Outdoor Living to reflect the mission of the company to bring timeless outdoor living spaces and experiences to life.  

With over 40 years experience, Stonefire Outdoor Living is dedicated to helping you extend the warmth and welcome of your home to the outdoors. Whether it is baking meals in your wood-burning oven or sitting by the warm comfort of your custom outdoor fireplace, our goal is to give the best quality craftsmanship which has been handed down from generation to generation.
