Frequently Asked Questions

What can be included in outdoor kitchens?

Outdoor kitchens can include built-in grills, burners, refrigerators, sinks, storage, pizza ovens, beverage centers, bar seating, countertops, and other cooking and entertaining features.

Can you build the patio and outdoor kitchen together?

Yes. In fact, designing the patio and kitchen together often creates a better overall layout and allows the materials and elevations to work together.

What countertop materials work well outdoors?

Several materials can work outdoors depending on the design, exposure, maintenance expectations, and product specifications. We can help select an appropriate material for the project.

Can an outdoor kitchen be built next to a pool?

Absolutely. Outdoor kitchens are commonly incorporated into pool and patio environments and can become one of the main entertaining areas in the backyard.

Do outdoor kitchens need to be covered?

Not necessarily. Some kitchens are completely open-air while others are located beneath lanais, pergolas, or roof structures. The right approach depends on the property and how you want to use the space.

Can you add lighting around the kitchen?

Yes. Task lighting and landscape lighting can be incorporated to improve both usability and atmosphere after sunset.

Can you work with appliances I already selected?

Yes. Appliance selections can be incorporated into the design as long as the specifications and installation requirements are appropriate for the project.
