Outdoor Kitchen Builder in Twenty Mile

Twenty Mile outdoor kitchens planned around how you cook, with the counters, power and cover worked out together.

Ask a Twenty Mile family what they want out back and an outdoor kitchen is usually near the top of the list. We start with how you cook and entertain, then design the counters, the bar and the cover so guests can gather while you work.

Twenty Mile Outdoor Kitchen Layouts

L-shaped kitchen. More prep space and a natural corner for guests to gather.
Stone or stucco base. A base finished to match the house or the fire feature.
Counters you choose. Counter material picked with you at the in-home visit.
Straight grill run. A clean line of counters along the house or the edge of the patio.

NFPA recommends keeping children and pets at least three feet away from the grilling area.

What Shapes an outdoor kitchen in Twenty Mile

Each Twenty Mile neighborhood has its own association, so we start by confirming which guidelines apply to your street. Many Twenty Mile homes came with a small lanai, so the first project is often a bigger outdoor room. Newer homes rarely come with outdoor kitchen power, so circuits are planned with the kitchen.

Power is easy to forget. Fridges, lights, fans and outlets all need circuits, and they're far easier to plan before the stonework goes up. Before we draw an outdoor kitchen in Twenty Mile, we check whether there's room for bar seating, what cover, if any, goes overhead and where the kitchen sits relative to the back door.

Keeping a grill clean matters: NFPA found the grill had not been cleaned in roughly one-fifth of grill fires.

Approvals and Permits in Twenty Mile

Twenty Mile reviews exterior changes neighborhood by neighborhood, and the Nocatee master rules apply to all of them. Boards usually look at where the kitchen sits, how it's screened from neighbors and any structure over it. Confirm current guidelines with your association.

In Twenty Mile, permits come from St. Johns County. We file the clearance sheet and the permit application, record the Notice of Commencement the county requires for most permitted projects, and schedule the inspections. Every permitted structure gets its necessary engineered documents.
