Outdoor Kitchens on Decks: Elevate Your Outdoor Living Experience

An outdoor kitchen on your deck transforms your outdoor space into a functional and luxurious area for cooking, dining, and entertaining. Whether you love hosting barbecues or enjoy dining al fresco with your family, an outdoor kitchen adds both convenience and style to your deck. Explore the benefits and design possibilities of outdoor kitchens on decks to elevate your outdoor living experience.

Benefits of Outdoor Kitchens on Decks

Enhanced Entertainment Space: An outdoor kitchen makes your deck the perfect spot for entertaining guests. With a fully equipped kitchen, you can prepare and serve meals without having to leave the party, keeping everyone engaged and creating a more enjoyable experience.
Convenience and Functionality: Having a kitchen on your deck means you can cook and dine outdoors with ease. No more running back and forth between your indoor kitchen and the deck—everything you need is right at your fingertips, from grills and stovetops to sinks and refrigerators.
Increased Home Value: An outdoor kitchen is a sought-after feature that can significantly increase your home’s value. It enhances the appeal of your outdoor space, making your home more attractive to potential buyers and adding to its marketability.
Expanded Living Space: An outdoor kitchen effectively expands your living area, allowing you to enjoy more time outdoors. Whether you’re hosting a summer barbecue or enjoying a quiet dinner under the stars, your deck becomes an extension of your home’s interior.
Customization and Style: Outdoor kitchens can be customized to fit your specific needs and design preferences. Choose from a variety of materials, appliances, and layouts to create a kitchen that complements your deck and suits your cooking style.

Design Considerations for Outdoor Kitchens on Decks

Layout and Space: Plan the layout of your outdoor kitchen to ensure it fits comfortably on your deck. Consider the size of the kitchen, the placement of appliances, and the flow of movement. Ensure there is enough space for cooking, dining, and socializing.
Appliances and Features: Choose appliances and features that suit your cooking habits. Popular options include grills, smokers, pizza ovens, refrigerators, sinks, and prep stations. Consider adding storage cabinets, countertops, and even a bar area to enhance functionality.
Materials and Durability: Select durable materials that can withstand outdoor conditions, such as stainless steel for appliances and weather-resistant materials for countertops and cabinetry. Ensure that the deck itself is strong enough to support the additional weight of the kitchen.
Lighting and Electrical: Proper lighting is essential for evening cooking and dining. Install task lighting for cooking areas and ambient lighting for the dining space. Ensure your outdoor kitchen has adequate electrical outlets for appliances and consider adding a ceiling fan for ventilation.
Protection and Shelter: Depending on your climate, you may want to add a pergola, awning, or roof over your outdoor kitchen to provide shade and protection from the elements. This not only makes cooking more comfortable but also extends the usability of your outdoor kitchen throughout the year.

The deck we designed with the help of Mr. Walker was installed when promised as promised. The entire procedure was accomplished within our budget and with many helpful suggestions by the Decks, Decks & More Decks personnel. The entire operation was done professionally and with helpful contact to answer any and all questions.

We wanted to spend our money locally and Decks, Decks & More Decks fit the bill. The entire process was well manged, they kept us informed, and did an excellent job on the deck despite some challenging weather conditions. These guys may not be the least expensive option but you definitely get what you pay for. We are very happy with the results.

Decks, Decks, & More Decks made the process from start to finish so easy. The 3D computer program they use helped my wife and I decide on the size and materials of the deck. The construction crew built the deck as if they were building their own with precision and care. There may be other companies out there that are less expensive but you get great customer service, a reputable company, and good craftsmanship when you select Decks, Decks, & More Decks.

Well organized and went just like they said it would. Pleasant to deal with and went the extra mile to ensure the adjacent plants to deck had the least impact. Really pleased. Highly recommend.

...I can honestly say that Decks, Decks, Decks was, by far: 1) The most professional in communications, 2) The most prepared regarding the plan of action and work done, 3) Offered the best, beginning to end, experience to us (the customer)...I am extremely satisfied with their services. Thank you Decks, Decks, and More Decks for showing us what a truly excellent home improvement experience should be like!!!

Had them redo our deck in Aug 2018. It was a GREAT experience working with Robert Walker very pleasant and easy to work with. Provided us with specific information on the step by step process from the moment we signed the contract until the deck was complete. The crew that came to our house was professional and easy to work with. I would highly recommend this company. They also give a military discount for veterans. Professional from top to bottom.

I chose the company hoping for a no hassle experience. I wasn't disappointed. Communication was great, timing was on schedule, and the deck is exactly as anticipated.

Yuri V. – Omaha

Love, love, love our new deck!! We went from a small builder deck to a roomy, maintenance-free extended living area. We designed the deck in their showroom to fit our desires, lifestyle and budget. It was great to see 3D computer images of what our new deck would look like before it was built! Every detail was documented and double checked. The crew was there when they said they would be there, and they cleaned up every night before they left...We highly recommend Decks, Decks & More Decks. Our deck has exceeded our expectations.

Mary Ann B. – Omaha

I was really pleased with the process that they have including mocking up what my pergola would look like and the finished product being exactly as discussed and shown. The on-site staff was professional and pleasant to work with. I would gladly recommend them to others!

Shannon L. – Omaha

From the initial consultation through the construction process, this was the best experience we have ever had with a contractor. The communication, attention to detail, and professionalism was second to none. Every day we look out at our new composite deck we love it more and more. We wish we could give six stars, we would.

Gina O. – Omaha

We are so happy with our new deck and appreciate all the hard work. They helped us with a design to fit our budget and our needs. Great communication and timing was perfect. They tore down our old deck and built new deck in a day and a half, excellent work. This company was very professional and I highly recommend them.

Kendel G. – Omaha

Their staff are professional and helpful. Our options, the construction time frame, and the various processes involved were clearly explained. We are enjoying our new Pergola. Chris and his crew did a great job!! We highly recommend them!
