STEP 2
Drawings and utilities
We plan the structure and the utility runs together, so the gas line and the drain are not an afterthought once the masonry is up.
STEP 3
City permit
Gas, electrical, and plumbing runs generally need a permit. We submit and handle plan check corrections.
STEP 4
Build and inspect
Structure, utility rough-in, appliance openings, and shade or cover framing. Inspected before anything is enclosed.
Common questions
What goes into an outdoor kitchen?
A built-in structure sized to your appliances, with the gas, water, and electrical runs to serve them, plus shade or a roof structure where the space needs it.
Do I need a permit?
Usually yes, because of the gas and electrical runs. We handle the submittal as part of the project.
Can you tie it into a patio cover or California room?
Yes, and it is generally cheaper to plan both together than to add the cover later once the utilities are already in the ground.
What areas do you serve?
Outdoor kitchens are built across Orange County. Loft and high-ceiling conversions are the one service we take anywhere in California.
How long does it take?
Most run a couple of weeks of construction once permitted. Utility rough-in and inspection set the early pace.
What does it cost?
It depends project to project. How far the utilities have to run is often the biggest variable. We quote in writing after a free evaluation.
