Grills, counters, storage, sinks, refrigerators and covered cooking spaces built to handle Tennessee weather and weekend gatherings.
Many Nashville households spend a good part of the year outside, and an outdoor kitchen extends the indoor one into the yard. A built-in grill, a counter with storage, a sink and a refrigerator turn a patio into a destination, and it keeps the heat and smoke out of the house during summer cookouts. The challenge is building something that stands up to heat, humidity, rain and the occasional freeze. Materials and details outdoors are not the same as indoors.
We start with how you cook and entertain outdoors, then plan the layout, utilities and structure. Frames are built from masonry, steel or treated materials, counters are chosen for sun and moisture resistance and appliances are rated for outdoor use. We plan gas, electrical and plumbing, drainage and ventilation, and we consider covering the space with a roof or pergola for shade and rain. Lighting, seating and a path to the indoor kitchen complete the design, with permits handled as required. Siting matters as much as the build. We think about prevailing wind, distance from windows and eaves, sight lines from the dining area, shade in the late afternoon and a comfortable route from the indoor kitchen, so the outdoor space feels like a natural extension of the house rather than an afterthought on the patio.
