"We were meeting with 6 different contractors to obtain estimates for an outdoor kitchen. Very happy with the HL Posey Builders! Their price was the most reasonable considering the design we had a mind and material. We had to make few changes but Laurie was on top of things - great communicator. Efficient and hard working team. Our outdoor kitchen looks great! I have given their names to a number of people. Will not hesitate to hire them again for future projects!

"Katie was a pleasure to work with from the get-go.  She provide me with the guidance and knowledge I needed to make this an attractive and budget-friendly project.  She was available from the first meeting to overseeing the actual installation.
John and his partner were skilled in the installation process.  They were prompt, worked hard, and left the project and work area clean.
Kitchenality is in my neighborhood which was a bonus as I prefer to use local businesses.

"I hired Picasso to redo my pool, update our hard scape and landscaping, and to install an outdoor kitchen and living area. Will and his team were patient every step of the way while we worked through that plans and renderings. When it came time for construction, others has said it would be months of work. Picasso did it in less than half the time - and the result was paradise in my own backyard. Highly recommended."

Outdoor Kitchens questions, answered by experts

A few materials are most commonly used when it comes to building a frame for an outdoor kitchen: wood, steel, and concrete or brick. While there’s no best option overall, each material is better suited to different needs. Concrete and brick are typically more customizable than other options, but aren’t as resistant to inclement weather as steel. Wood is the most affordable pick, but it is more susceptible to rot, mildew, and heat than the others.

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.

Summer kitchens can cost anywhere from $1,000 to $50,000 to build. The average price is on the lower end of that range, however, at $15,500. The typical homeowner is more likely to pay between $6,000 and $25,000 than approach the $50,000 mark. Materials for framework, flooring, and countertops are the most expensive type of expenditure, with appliances coming in second. There are a few additional costs that may not immediately come to mind when planning an outdoor kitchen, some of which include: permits, routine maintenance, pest control, and winterization.

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.

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.
