Outdoor Kitchens and
Outdoor Living Areas are
an increasingly popular
trend. Outdoor Living Areas
are like an extension of
your indoor living room.
Outdoor kitchens are like
having an additional eating
and preparation area, outdoors of course. Some people have to choose
one over the other because the amount of space available.
So when considering your options, money and space will be your two
biggest concerns. So after determining the amount of space we’re
working with, the next step will be determining if you can afford
everything at once or we need to break the project into phases.
Pick Your Patio – This is the foundation of your new Outdoor Living
Area or Outdoor Kitchen.
- Cement Patio – which is poured cement (the most economical)
- Flagstone Patio – which is flat pieces of flagstone mortared on top of cement
- Pavestone Patio – which are decorative bricks laid in patterns on top of cement.
- Dry stack Patio – which is a base of decomposed granite with flagstone
Pick Your Shade Structure – this is needed for shade, mount ceiling
fans, lighting and of course eventually a flat screen.
- Pergola – is usually made with cedar posts and have horizontal boards spaced every 12”.
- Pavilion – is a solid roof structure with shingles on top.
Note: Both can be free standing or attached to your house, with a variety
of colors, shapes and sizes.
Once your patio and shade structure has been chosen the only thing
remaining is to choose your amenities.
Grill – can be free standing or built in.
Counter space – we build it with cinder blocks then apply your choice of
stone.
- Add ins – can include a sink, cabinets, drawers and refrigerator.
Bar w/seating – we build a higher platform on to the back of the counter.
