Why Build an Outdoor Living Space in Cape Coral

Your backyard should be more than just grass and a few chairs. In Cape Coral, where the weather lets you enjoy outdoor living almost year-round, an outdoor fireplace or kitchen turns your property into the go-to spot for family gatherings, weekend cookouts, and relaxing evenings under the stars.

We build custom outdoor fireplaces and full kitchens using high-quality brick, stone, and masonry materials that stand up to Florida's heat, humidity, and occasional storms. These aren't temporary additions. They're permanent features that add real value to your home while giving you a comfortable space to entertain guests or unwind after a long day.

Whether you want a cozy fireplace for cooler evenings or a complete outdoor kitchen with built-in grills, pizza ovens, and bar seating, we design and build exactly what fits your space and lifestyle. Our team handles everything from the initial planning and material selection to the final touches that make your outdoor area look polished and inviting.

Custom Outdoor Kitchen Features We Install

An outdoor kitchen gives you the freedom to cook, eat, and entertain without running back and forth between your house and backyard. We work with you to design a layout that makes sense for how you actually use your outdoor space.

Popular Outdoor Kitchen Elements

• •Built-in grills and smoker stations: Custom masonry surrounds for gas or charcoal grills that stay protected and ready to use.
• •Pizza ovens and outdoor ovens: Wood-fired or gas pizza ovens made with heat-resistant brick and stone.
• •Stone countertops and prep areas: Durable granite, bluestone, or concrete counters that give you plenty of workspace.

Every outdoor kitchen we build is unique because your needs are different from your neighbor's. Some people want a simple grill station with counter space. Others want a full setup with multiple cooking zones, a bar, and plenty of storage. We design it all based on what works best for you, your budget, and your available space.

Outdoor Fireplace Design and Construction

An outdoor fireplace creates a natural gathering spot where family and friends want to spend time. Even in Florida, those cooler winter evenings are perfect for sitting around a fire. We build custom outdoor fireplaces using brick, natural stone, or a combination of materials that match your home's style and your personal taste.

What Goes Into Building an Outdoor Fireplace

Building an outdoor fireplace isn't just about stacking bricks. It requires proper planning, heat-resistant materials, and careful construction to make sure your fireplace is safe, functional, and built to last. Here's what we focus on:

First, we assess your yard and determine the best location for your fireplace. You want it close enough to your main outdoor living area but positioned safely away from structures, trees, and overhanging branches. Proper placement also considers wind patterns so smoke doesn't blow directly into your seating areas.

Next, we pour a solid concrete foundation that can support the weight of your fireplace and withstand Florida's soil conditions. The firebox gets lined with heat-resistant firebrick that can handle high temperatures without cracking. The chimney gets built tall enough to create proper airflow and draft, so your fire burns cleanly without smoking you out.

We finish the exterior with your choice of natural stone, cultured stone, or traditional brick. You can choose rustic fieldstone for a more natural look, smooth stacked stone for a modern feel, or classic red brick that matches your home. We also add built-in seating walls, mantel shelves, and other custom features that make your fireplace truly one-of-a-kind.
