"I hired E&J landscaping for an ambitious project that required four types of lighting, a recessed fire pit, fencing, sprinklers, grass, concrete, two types of planters around the entire perimeter of my yard, and about a dozen different kinds of plants. Eric and his crew were respectful, communicative, and did a great job. Highly recommend."
"Dick hands good great job kept within my budget I wish I could have done more but the budget just did not allow did offer reduced price on other projects and suggestions on one other that I was looking to do made good use of items I already had and work them into my yard project overall I recommend him and his crew"
"Really strong recommendation for Josh. I have a house with a lot of stone and unfortunately about 10 pieces fell off this past winter. I called a few stone masons to quote the job and found each quote unrealistic for the amount of work involved. I found Josh through another contractor with whom he worked. Josh came out to the house and gave me a reasonable quote which satisfied my needs and, more importantly, paid Josh for the quality of stone masonry that he does. I am very pleased with the work and will definitely use Josh for all my stone masonry needs going forward. Definitely deserves 5 stars."
"The job went well. It ended up being bigger than anticipated but Coyote Creek was great to work with and offered amazing customer service. They worked so hard and our yard looks amazing. They basically transformed it from an unusable nightmare to a beautiful haven. I recommend them for your landscaping projects."
It all started with a trip to the Azores of Portugal. RTA's co-founder went there to meet his wife's family And had his first encounter with an outdoor kitchen. The charm of that kitchen went far beyond providing meals. It served as an inviting gathering space, and offered moments to break bread together.\n\nThe inspiration from that outdoor kitchen was bottled up and shipped back to the US. Unfortunately, there was a lack of accessible options in America in the early 2010's. Someone needed to rethink the conventional approach of construction. Thus began the journey, with a goal of remastering the outdoor kitchen.
"We had a serious issue with rain runoff settling our soil at our foundation. Joe and his crew were incredible!!! He replied immediately and came out the same day to bid. His assessment was spot on, very affordable for all they had to do, and they remedied our issue quickly and even impressed our builder Rep, who said how to fix it. Joe went above and beyond to make it so we’ll never have issues again!!! I can’t recommend Joe enough and honestly, I very rarely do online reviews, but with Joe, I just had to. Yes, he is that good,,,,TRUST ME. ?"
"The crew tackling my patio flooring were hard working, efficient and very courteous. My patio looks beautiful. I would highly recommend this Legacy Pavers team. Side note: They were really kind to my annoying puppies and made me feel like they enjoyed working at my house and helping me out!"
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.
You can choose a few different options for outdoor kitchen sink drainage. You can install a dry well about 10 feet away from your home or patio or install a French drain closer by. You can also drain into your home’s plumbing system, but it is more costly versus using a dry well.
If you plan to have a refrigerator or other appliances that require electricity, you will need an electrical outlet in your outdoor kitchen. Be sure to comply with all National Electrical Code® (NEC®) codes for electrical wiring and outlets in kitchens. If you do not plan to install a refrigerator or any other appliances that require electricity as part of your outdoor kitchen features, then you do not need to install electrical outlets. However, it is a good idea to install at least one electrical outlet should you decide to use any appliances that require electricity.
Yes, an outdoor kitchen can increase your home's value, as outdoor living areas are increasingly popular among potential homebuyers. The return on investment (ROI) can vary significantly, with estimates ranging from 50% to as high as 200%. In many cases, homeowners can expect to at least break even on the project. The final ROI depends on several factors, including the kitchen's size, design, and quality, the materials used, and whether it was professionally installed. Other considerations that impact value are your home's location, how well the kitchen is maintained, and how soon you sell after the remodel. However, be mindful that an outdoor kitchen that takes up a large portion of your usable yard space could be seen as a drawback by some buyers.
The cost to build an outdoor kitchen averages around $15,500, but prices can range widely from $5,000 to over $52,000 depending on the project's complexity and features. Many projects fall within the $5,000 to $30,000 range. Since outdoor kitchens are highly customizable, several key factors influence the total cost, including the size and layout of the area, the quality of materials for countertops and cabinets, the number and type of appliances, the need for site preparation like land leveling or a foundation, and whether new utility lines are required.
