Custom Outdoor Kitchens, Pergolas & Gazebos

Yes, and the options are extensive. Outdoor kitchens can be designed around your space, budget, and lifestyle. Common features include built-in grills, smokers, side burners, countertops, sinks, under-counter refrigerators, storage cabinets, task lighting, and seating areas.

Material choices for countertops and cabinetry range from granite and concrete to weather-resistant stainless steel and stone that come in many colors and styles.

While you want to keep ergonomics and space constraints in mind, your configuration options are seemingly endless. Your local experts will work with you to design a layout that fits your outdoor space and the way you like to cook and entertain.

Pergolas are designed to provide partial shade, not full coverage. Their open lattice or beam structure filters sunlight and creates a defined outdoor space without fully blocking the sky. If you want more shade, options like retractable canopies, shade sails, or shade cloth panels can be added to increase coverage.

Climate-appropriate climbing plants may be used to create more natural coverage over time. Your local service professionals can help you choose the right configuration based on how much sun your yard gets and how you plan to use the space.

Timelines vary depending on the scope of the project. A straightforward pergola or gazebo installation may take a few days, while a larger outdoor kitchen with custom countertops, electrical, and multiple appliances can take one to two weeks or more.

Factors like material lead times, site preparation, permit requirements, and weather can all affect the schedule. Some projects may require electrical, plumbing, gas, or other trade work. Requirements vary by location, layout, and local code.

After we assess your property and discuss your project goals, we can give you a realistic timeline before work begins.
