Outdoor Kitchen in Seattle, WA

An Outdoor Kitchen in Seattle, WA deals with a long wet season, so the countertop is chosen for rain and temperature swings as much as for looks. Sintered stone and porcelain are common outdoor picks because they handle sun and weather, and we help you compare them with other materials before you commit.

Planning begins with the build around the stone. Templating comes after the cabinets or masonry are complete, level and plumb, and appliance openings are specified from the manufacturer drawings. On a sloping Seattle lot near Puget Sound, a backyard can sit well above or below the street, so the carry from the curb is part of the plan, along with hills and tight streets.

Older homes with out-of-square walls often have patios and ground that are uneven in the same way, and digital templating follows the actual geometry. Nearer to the city's condos, a roof deck is a different problem, since access, freight elevator rules and weight all affect what the stone can be.

Craftsman bungalows tend to suit a modest, well-detailed counter run rather than an elaborate one. Send photos of your yard through the quote form, and we will tell you what we see.

Outdoor stone faces sun, rain, frost and temperature swings that an indoor countertop never sees. The material has to be chosen for that, and the install has to account for the outdoor build around it.

We help you pick a surface that holds up in the Pacific Northwest and plan it with your outdoor contractor.

What Seattle Projects Need to Plan For

Many Seattle condo buildings require freight elevator bookings and set install windows, so delivery and installation are scheduled around the building.

Early twentieth century homes in neighborhoods like Capitol Hill and Queen Anne often have uneven walls and floors that affect templating.

Steep streets and limited parking make delivering large slabs something to plan ahead.
