Toronto Outdoor Kitchen Builder
Design Your Outdoor Kitchen
If you want to expand your living space and spend more time enjoying the fresh air, an outdoor kitchen could be the perfect upgrade to your home. Since the 2010s, outside living spaces have increased drastically in popularity, leading to an indoor-outdoor movement. Additionally, practical entertainment areas that can accommodate social distancing are invaluable for dealing with safety issues associated with Covid-19. Not only can they have a great return on investment when selling your property, they are a fantastic way to maximize your enjoyment and comfort at home.
At Luke’s Landscaping, we work closely with our customers to design backyard elements that make the most out of the available space while elevating the look and feel of the entire property.
Creating The Ultimate Outdoor Living Space
One of the many benefits of installing an outdoor kitchen is that they are highly customizable according to your needs and budget. The average cost ranges from $5,057 to $17,276, but you can spend as little as a few thousand or as much as $50,000 should you desire. Compared to other home renovations, it is relatively easy to make design choices that forgo luxury but still maintain the functionality. For example, stainless steel countertops are a high-end choice at almost $100 per square foot, while ceramic tile can come in at under $10 per square foot.
The most important things to keep in mind are utilities and size when factoring in price. The further away from the main housing structure you build, the more expensive it is to run electric, gas, and water lines. You can also save significantly by utilizing an existing patio next to your main living space. Additional expense factors include construction materials, gas vs. charcoal grills, storage and seating, and extra amenities and appliances. Sticking to the essentials (grill, counter, seating) can keep costs down while still letting you enjoy your yard to the fullest. Alternatively, you can splurge for true grandeur and create the outdoor kitchen of your dreams, complete with a fireplace, TV, and refrigerator.
Another factor you should keep in mind while designing your outdoor kitchen is Toronto’s continental climate. Cheap materials might look nice enough and function just fine during the spring and summer. However, they may not be able to withstand cold temperatures very well, thus degrading quicker. So while you might not want to splurge on natural stone, you should still invest in durable materials like manufactured stone or teak. In addition, pergolas are a great way to provide shade and protection from destructive weather elements.
