The problem

A grill on the deck, a cover nobody took off, and a cook who stood in the rain in the dark.

Decisions on the plan

  • A solid roof with gutters over the cooking line
  • Task lights over the grill, warm low light on the seating side
  • Gas and a 20-amp circuit run from the house, permitted
  • Porcelain counters rated for freeze and thaw

What they use now

The kitchen is the reason they host now. The roof means rain does not cancel dinner.

“The light over the grill sounds like a small thing. It changed how often we cook out there.”
