You can call or fill out our contact page to get the conversation started. We look forward to building not just a product for you but a lasting relationship.
Our ovens and company pay homage to owner William “BJ” Hall’s Italian heritage. His grandmother’s family came from Italy and so the company name of Forno Nardona was derived from his grandmother’s maiden name, Nardona, and the Italian word for oven, ‘Forno’.
The very first pizza oven we built was for personal use at our home. Before we knew it, our friends and neighbors wanted an outdoor pizza oven of their own. In April of 2013, our business as an outdoor residential brick oven builder began. Today, we build for outdoor and indoor as well as commercial and residential. We are also able to include an optional gas burner.
Over time, our ovens have evolved and improved. Our techniques have been fine-tuned and our product is the best available in the market.
