"Unreliable. He gave an offer and I prepared a draft contract. He asked for changes and clarifications. Changes to extend time frame from 60 to 90 days accepted and clarifications provided.

"Ken and his crew built me 2 beautiful bamboo decks. One large and one small. They also replaced all the plywood and siding on the back of my house. Our upper deck, which is the larger one has a water drainage system so we can have a living space underneath. The lower deck, which is the smaller one is flanked by concrete planter boxes and looks awesome! Despite last winters heavy storms, they got the job done quickly and efficiently."

"Our household has been using Tinoco’s Landscaping for several years and we are very happy with their work. Omar services our house every other week and takes his time in both the front and back yard. He goes above and beyond and makes sure everything around the house looks great. He even takes his time on the little details, he takes our yard waste to the curb, has fixed broken sprinklers, sets our sprinklers to different times as needed, he has even fixed a lock on our gate when he noticed it was not working properly. We would highly recommend Tinoco’s Landscaping and will continue to use their services."

"I hired Oliver as he assured me he and his crew could do the jobs I had requested. He used my refinished table as a cutting surface for the brick and scratched my table. His brick cuts were awful. He used brick on the walkway that I had purchased and set aside for the pizza oven. Although he had the brick example, he purchased more brick in completely wrong colors. I went and bought the correct brick on my own, picked it up, and he did not reimburse me. He didn't use enough polymeric sand for the walkway, and I supplied most of it, when he should have, as part of the supplies quote. The walkway is not straight and has tripping hazards as surfaces were left uneven. He reused the existing edging when I understood he would be replacing it. He left large gaps between the edging and the brick in many areas. He was unable to mason the brick oven, and instead slopped it with a succo-like? coating that has cracked all over. He broke our pathway lights and didn't let us know they were no longer working. He did not weld the gate. The timeline was 6 days to complete, and after 30 days, the work was still not complete. The work was so unsatisfactory and Oliver quit before completing the work stating it was "100 percent on him and unfortunately left us with some expectations unmet, and he was sorry." I would attach photos for your reference, if I could. I'm hesitant to use an Angi's recommendation again."

Outdoor Kitchens questions, answered by experts

Outdoor kitchens can quickly get expensive, but there are a few things you can do to help keep costs down, including the following:

  • You can build on an existing patio to reduce the cost of a new foundation.

  • Opt out of a sink and stick with a built-in propane or charcoal grill to save on utility line installation costs.

  • You can tackle the parts of the project that are DIYable, like finishing cabinets, installing fixtures, and building seating.

  • Keep your kitchen small and make a big impact with proper planning and upgrading the essential components instead.

The difference between a built-in and regular grill is installation and design. A built-in grill is integrated into an outdoor kitchen or structure, often within a countertop or island. It is a permanent fixture. A regular grill is standalone, portable, or cart-mounted, allowing mobility and versatility in placement. Built-in grills are typically larger with more cooking space, while regular grills come in various sizes. Built-in grills are favored for creating a custom outdoor cooking area, while regular grills provide convenience and flexibility.

You can use normal bricks as cladding for a concrete or clay pizza oven or as a base underneath one. Fire bricks or solid clay bricks are necessary for an outdoor pizza oven’s floor, and you can use clay bricks for the rest of the oven.

Whether or not it’s cheaper to build a pizza oven depends largely on what style you opt for and which tools and materials you already have. For example, having a surplus of leftover fire bricks from another DIY project will reduce the amount you need to build a new pizza oven and cut costs to boot. On the flip side, if you don’t have any of the required materials, buying a pre-made option will be cheaper and require far less work to set up—between just $300 and $1,000 for the best versions.

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.
