Understanding Rust and Maintenance

Our fire pits are made from raw mild steel, which naturally develops a rust patina over time. While some embrace the rustic look, others may prefer a sleeker appearance. For those who wish to repaint their fire pit, it's important to properly prepare the surface and choose the right paint.

Maintenance Tips for Longevity

While our fire pits are built to last, proper maintenance is essential for prolonging their lifespan. Always clean out the ash when the fire pit is cool and safe to handle, as ash retains moisture that can accelerate rusting. Regularly inspect your fire pit for signs of rust or wear, and address any issues promptly to prevent further deterioration.

With a little care and attention, your Bel's Metal Art fire pit will continue to be a cherished centrepiece of your outdoor gatherings for years to come.
