The right foundation for your outdoor pizza oven
Masonry pizza ovens can be extremely heavy once the hearth, insulation, stand and outer finish are included. Even portable-looking metal ovens may sit on stone-topped units with concentrated leg loads.
Complete installed weight
The foundation is based on oven, hearth, stand, worktops and finishes together.

A paved terrace can suit a lighter proprietary oven on an approved stand, provided the support area is stable and load-capable.
Worth considering for: Mobile or modular ovens with modest overall weight

What matters for your outdoor pizza oven
We build the agreed slab or footing to the oven and stand plan, leaving heat clearances and flue installation to the approved product design.

Stable masonry support
Block or brick stands need a firm footprint that will not settle differentially.

Before installation
Dimensions, approvals and responsibilities
Ask the oven supplier for the total built weight and base-plan dimensions, not only the metal or refractory oven core weight.
The foundation contractor does not determine flue height, combustible clearances or gas connections; those remain governed by the product and competent installer.
JustBases quotes the agreed foundation and groundwork. Product installation, specialist connections, commissioning and third-party design remain outside our scope unless the written quotation expressly includes them.
