"C & H Gardens Artistic Landscape & Tree Service did a fantastic job in my backyard. They worked within my budget. My planting beds were cleaned out, weed barrier installed and new succulents planted. They worked with me on design and planting. They also re-installed stairs to allow access into my canyon lot. Finally they installed a retaining wall to support my mature sycamore tree that is on a slope and also terraced above the tree on the slope. The workmen were efficient and friendly. I would definitely recommend this business for your landscaping needs.1"

"Our kitchen remodel with McCormick Home Builders went beyond our expectations. Leoni and her team took the time to understand exactly what we wanted. The open layout design changed the way we use the space, and it’s been perfect for family gatherings. They were prompt, courteous, and genuinely invested in making sure we were happy. Really impressed!"

"We were quoted by 3 other contractors and Shiro definitely ended up being the most reasonably priced and also the most professional at the same time. We had a retaining wall and pavers put in with drainage, along with installing an extra propane outlet for a fire pit, and everything went as planned and came out great! Smooth and easy process, would highly recommend Shir and his crew."

"Ben is currently collaborating with me on a Porch project and a comprehensive front yard landscape initiative. My decision to engage him as my contractor was solidified after observing the successful completion of three distinct projects at my sister's house, all of which achieved outstanding aesthetic results. I had the opportunity to witness his exceptional professionalism, meticulous attention to project requirements, extensive knowledge base, and superior problem-solving capabilities. He is an exemplary contractor who demonstrates significant pride in his work and consistently prioritizes client satisfaction. I eagerly anticipate the progression and culmination of my project, confident that it will also achieve a phenomenal outcome. Moving forward, Ben will serve as our family's preferred contractor for all future endeavors. We consider ourselves fortunate and blessed to have established this professional relationship."

"Smooth! I got a few quotes from different companies. EvoTurf was the most comfortable fit for me as their staff were amazing from the sales guy to the lovely lady in the office that coordinated everything flawlessly. Other companies were rushed and in some cases rude to me! EvoTurf worked with me with what I wanted to do and were very pleasant! Besides the people, the work was great and my lawn looks amazing!"

Outdoor Kitchens FAQs, answered by experts

No. Placing a built-in grill against the house is discouraged due to safety concerns. Building codes and regulations often require a minimum distance (typically 10 feet or more) between a gas grill and any combustible structure, including a house. Placing a grill too close poses a fire hazard and risks damage to the siding or structure, potentially leading to carbon monoxide buildup. It's essential to consult local building codes, follow manufacturer guidelines, and prioritize safety by positioning the grill at a safe distance, ideally in a well-ventilated outdoor kitchen or designated grill area.

Your maintenance needs revolve around the type of foundation you choose, as well as how you furnish or decorate it. Patios require little else other than the occasional hose-down, but decks and other wooden structures will require annual power washing and sealing. You may also need to restain the wood every two to three years.

Adding a solid roof rather than building a pergola or leaving the space open will make maintenance much easier. Without a roof, you will need to spend more time sweeping, washing, and covering your furniture to protect it from UV bleaching.

Older research tells us that adding an outdoor pizza oven is unlikely to increase ROI. But thanks to an uptick in interest in this feature, it’s becoming increasingly likely that installing one will boost your home’s value by a small amount.

Built-in gas grills typically have a life span of 10 to 15 years. However, their longevity can vary based on quality, usage frequency, climate conditions, and maintenance routines. High-quality models made from durable materials tend to last longer. Additionally, regular cleaning, covering the grill when not in use, and conducting routine maintenance tasks such as cleaning burners and replacing worn-out parts can extend its life. A well-maintained built-in gas grill can provide excellent performance and memorable cooking experiences for a decade or more, making it a worthwhile investment for outdoor cooking enthusiasts.

The best types of wood for outdoor kitchen cabinets are those naturally resistant to weather, water, heat, fading, and mold or mildew. Excellent choices include teak, mahogany, white oak, and Brazilian walnut. It's best to avoid softwoods like pine and cedar, as they are more susceptible to damage and can catch fire easily. For extra protection, ensure the wood is pressure-treated. Regardless of the wood you choose, you will need to apply sealants, oils, and stains regularly to protect your cabinets from the elements.
