Outdoor Kitchen Features
Built-in Grills & Cooking Surfaces
A built-in grill looks like it belongs and with the option of running a gas line to your grill you may never need to worry about propane tanks again. Countertops built around your grill make cooking outdoors easier than ever.
Bars & Counter Tops
Counter tops double as cooking and eating surfaces and outdoor bars are popular features of an outdoor entertaining space. Start by selecting durable materials that can withstand the elements, such as granite, quartz, or concrete. Cider Mill will ensure proper measurements for your layout to maximize space and accessibility. They can incorporate a stylish bar area with seating to create a social hub for guests. With the right design, your outdoor kitchen will be both practical and aesthetically pleasing.
Outdoor TV’s and Electrical Outlets
Many outdoor kitchen designs now include a space for a TV. When placing the outdoor TV it is important to consider shade and exposure to the elements along with visibility from seating areas. Running electric lines from the house to outdoor outlets makes an outdoor TV possible along with many other electrical appliances and a place to charge your phone.
Sinks
A sink in your outdoor kitchen opens up many more cooking possibilities outdoors. Cider Mill is experienced in running water lines underneath patios to connect to outdoor links.
Refrigeration
Outdoor kitchens can be built to fit mini-fridges below the counter tops or for larger storage needs there are wider units. Fridges built for wine, beer, and refrigerated drawers are other common options.

FAQs for Outdoor Kitchens & More
How does the design and installation process work for outdoor kitchens?
We start by discussing your vision, space, and cooking needs. Then, we create a custom design that integrates with your existing landscape or patio. Once approved, we handle all site prep, utility connections, and construction—keeping you updated every step of the way. We also coordinate with any required trades like electricians or gas line installers to ensure everything meets code.
What is the typical timeline for completing an outdoor kitchen project?
Most outdoor kitchen projects take 4 to 8 weeks from start to finish, depending on complexity, materials, and weather conditions. Custom stonework, utility installation, or integrated features like pergolas may extend the timeline slightly, but we’ll provide a clear schedule before work begins.
What fuel sources can outdoor kitchens use?
We typically install kitchens that use natural gas or propane, depending on availability and client preference. Natural gas is most common.
Do outdoor kitchens need a roof?
Most outdoor kitchens don’t require a roof, as they are designed with proper grading, weather-resistant materials, and wet-rated appliances that can withstand the elements. However, we can incorporate pergolas or roofs if desired.
Why do I need a landscape designer? Can’t I do this on my own?
In doing this for many years, and living and breathing it every day, there are a lot of things that go into a design. Like every other industry, there are things that an “amateur” or someone that doesn’t design on a daily basis will overlook.
There are intricate details that we know to implement into a design. As well as different aspects of nature or a landscape that we know to factor in that a homeowner may not. Especially with outdoors, there are a lot of things to take into consideration.
Do you work with budgets?
We do work with budgets.
Making sure we design to accommodate our clients is a big part of the process.
Can I get an estimate over the phone?
In most cases, the answer is no. We need a site visit and accurate measurements.
Can you perform installations if I already have plans?
Yes, however, we may make suggestions or edits to the plan.
We will not implement another design if we feel like the structural integrity of a project has been compromised or under-engineered. We also will not implement a design that has horticultural or product flaws.
What are your payment terms?
For smaller projects, and repeat maintenance clients, payment is due upon completion. For mid-size and larger projects, we take 1/3 up front and the rest upon completion. For projects larger than $50k, we take 1/3 up front, 1/3 when approximately half-way done, and the rest upon completion. Typically we make sure a client is 100% satisfied before taking a final payment.
What forms of payment do you accept?
Cash and check. If a credit card is requested we charge a 3.5% finance fee (our cost from the merchant service provider.)
What guarantees do you offer on installations?
New plant installations have a one year warranty.
Patios, structures, and outdoor living areas receive a 3-5 year craftsmanship warranty, depending on the service.
All appliances and products receive the manufacturer’s warranty.
Are your staff sub-contractors or employees?
All of our staff are employees.
