Outdoor kitchens

An outdoor kitchen is plumbing and gas, then cabinetry.

The part people enjoy is the finish. The part that decides whether it works is what runs underneath it, and that has to be settled before anything is built.

Decide the services first.

Gas or charcoal, water line or no water line, and how much power you need — these are the questions that have to be answered before the structure goes up, because running gas, water and electricity into a finished kitchen means taking it apart again.

The single most common regret is prep counter. People specify the grill carefully and then find they have nowhere to put a tray down. We will push you to over-order counter space; it is the cheapest part of the whole build.

Finish is where it either reads as part of the house or as something bolted on afterwards. Stone, trim and cabinetry get chosen against your existing brick and siding, not off a chart.

What goes into the build.

Grill run and prep

Built-in grill, side burner, and more counter than you think you need. This is the decision people most often get wrong.

Refrigeration and storage

Outdoor-rated units only. Indoor appliances in an outdoor kitchen fail, and the warranty will not cover it.

Bar seating

Changes how the space gets used more than any other single element — it turns a cooking station into somewhere people stand around.

Finish and stone

Versetta Stone panels for column bases and facing, cut and coursed so the kitchen belongs to the house.

Still weighing materials? The What We Build page sets out what composite and PVC actually are, how the Trex and TimberTech lines compare, and the six things that genuinely move what a project costs.

Still deciding? Come look at it.

Bring your questions to the showroom, or we'll come measure your yard first. Either way it's free, and you'll leave knowing what things actually cost.
