Free design offer

See your new outdoor kitchen, fireplace or covered patio before you build

Send us a photo of your backyard or living room and we'll send back a free design of your new outdoor kitchen, fireplace or covered patio.

  • Snap a photo of the space, from your phone is fine
  • We design a custom concept for your home
  • Turnkey from there: permits, HOA approval, gas, electrical and plumbing all handled
  • No cost and no obligation
Project type * (check all that apply)
Add up to 6 photos of your yard from different angles. Messy is fine, we'll clean it up. Straight from your phone is fine; we shrink them automatically.

    How to take the best photo

    1. Stand at the back of your yard, facing the house.
    2. Hold your phone sideways (landscape), level, at chest height.
    3. Fit the whole back of the house in the shot, roofline to ground, with the patio in the middle. Use 1x zoom. If it won't fit, zoom out (0.7x, 0.5x, whatever works) just enough to fit it.
    4. Shoot in daylight, ideally with the sun behind you.

    Bonus shots: one from each back corner and a close-up of your existing patio. Add them right here with your main photo.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    How much does an outdoor kitchen, fireplace or covered patio cost?

    Projects start at around $6,000. A typical 8-foot outdoor kitchen with a standard grill, sink, refrigerator and access doors underneath runs about $10,000 to $14,000, depending on your granite selection and any upgrades.

    Custom covered patios: pricing is available by request, since every patio cover is designed and quoted for your home.

    Every project gets a free, detailed estimate.

    How long does a project take?

    Most projects move quickly once you approve the estimate:

    • Outdoor kitchen: a standard outdoor kitchen is usually finished in about one week.
    • Fireplace interior (firebox): usually done in a single day.
    • Stone fireplace surround: add about one to two weeks, depending on size.

    Custom covered patios: timelines depend on size and design.

    We'll give you a specific schedule with your estimate.

We can extend your slab, finish the ceiling in stained tongue-and-groove wood, and prep for ceiling fans and lighting.

    It's turnkey: we handle permits and HOA approval, and our own subs handle the electrical. Add an outdoor kitchen or fireplace and it's all built by one team.

    Do you handle permits and HOA approval?

    Yes. We draw up full plans for your project, ready for permit and HOA submission, and take care of all permits and HOA approvals. We just need your HOA's name and contact or management company. You can include it when you request your free design to speed things up.

    Who handles the gas, electrical and plumbing?

    We do. It's turnkey: our own subcontractors handle all gas, electrical and plumbing work, so you deal with one company from design to final install.

    We're based in Richmond, TX and build all over Greater Houston and beyond, including Katy, Sugar Land, The Woodlands, Montgomery, Conroe, Livingston and College Station. Not sure if we come out your way? Give us a call. We probably do.
