Paver Patio & Fire Pit — Kalispell, MT

Riverside Travertine
Patio & Fire Pit

Kalispell, Montana
Completed Summer 2024
1,840 Sq Ft
Project Overview

Design & Installation

This residential project in Kalispell's Westside neighborhood transformed a sloped, underutilized backyard into a fully integrated outdoor living space. Cold Iron Hardscapes was brought in to design and install a 1,840-square-foot travertine paver patio, a multi-tiered Keystone retaining wall system, a custom built-in outdoor kitchen, and a circular fieldstone fire pit — all coordinated into a single cohesive design that flows naturally from the home's rear exterior.

The site presented a significant grade challenge, with approximately 4.5 feet of elevation change across the rear yard. Our crew engineered a two-level patio layout using Keystone's Premier retaining wall blocks to create defined tiers, ensuring long-term structural integrity while eliminating erosion concerns. Drainage was installed concurrently with base prep to manage Montana's freeze-thaw cycles and protect the paver investment for decades.

What Clients Say

Project Feedback

"Cold Iron turned our completely unusable backyard into our favorite place to be. The travertine is stunning, the retaining walls are perfectly built, and the fire pit is exactly what we dreamed of. They communicated every step of the way."

"The drainage solution they designed was impressive — we had serious water issues from the slope and they completely resolved it with the French drain and base system. Two years later, still perfect. Highly recommend for anything hardscaping."

"The crew was professional, punctual, and kept our yard clean throughout. The outdoor kitchen they built is a showstopper — every neighbor asks about it. The Keystone wall system looks incredible and you can tell it's built to last Montana winters."
