The site comes first
Before layout, before appliances: how much cover the site has, what the slab is doing, where the gas and power already run, and what your community's design guidelines allow. Half the decisions get made here.
Outdoor kitchens
From one island to a full estate build.
Every project starts the same way and ends somewhere different. What does not change is the order: the site decides the materials, the materials decide the budget, and the budget decides how far the layout can go.
How it goes
A layout you can stand in
We draw the run around how you actually cook and where people actually stand. The most common mistake in this category is a beautiful island with nowhere to put a tray down.
Materials, specified honestly
Hail-rated stainless and back-vented cabinetry, footings set to the local frost depth, and clearance to combustibles engineered around the smoker itself, not just the grill. And the fasteners matched to the panels — we will tell you where spending more changes nothing.
A real number
One price, itemised, with the freight and the lead times in it. Not a range wide enough to mean nothing.
What it costs
The honest range, and why it is wide.
A single island with a good grill starts around $8K. Most full builds land between $25K and $110K. Estate projects — long runs, multiple cooking stations, stone and covered structure — go well past that. The spread is not vagueness: it is the difference between one appliance and an outdoor room.
