Comprehensive Property Maintenance & Year-Round Care

Elevating Your Entertainment

Imagine gathering with loved ones on a crisp evening, sharing stories around the warm glow of a custom-built fire pit, or hosting unforgettable summer barbecues in a fully equipped outdoor kitchen crafted from beautiful stone and brick. At Paul Brown LLC, we specialize in designing and constructing these bespoke “outdoor living features” – elements that transcend basic landscaping to become true extensions of your home’s entertainment and lifestyle. These aren’t just additions; they’re investments in memorable experiences, creating focal points that invite connection, relaxation, and culinary delight. Our expertise in “hardscapes” and custom masonry ensures that every outdoor kitchen, fire pit, or intricate stone feature is built to perfection, combining stunning aesthetics with lasting durability and functionality.

The Ultimate Entertainment Hub: Outdoor Kitchens & BBQ Islands
An “outdoor kitchen” or “BBQ island” is the epitome of sophisticated outdoor living. It transforms your patio or deck into a fully functional culinary space, allowing you to prepare, cook, and entertain outside without ever missing a moment of the action.

• Tailored Design & Functionality: We work with you to custom design an outdoor kitchen that perfectly fits your culinary habits and entertaining style. We consider the layout, flow, and integration of essential components:
  • Built-in Grills: High-quality gas, charcoal, or ceramic grills seamlessly integrated into the counter.
  • Counter Space: Ample prep and serving areas crafted from durable materials like granite, concrete, or tile.
  • Sinks & Refrigeration: For convenience and food safety, outdoor sinks with hot/cold water and marine-grade refrigerators are popular additions.
  • Side Burners & Storage: Additional cooking surfaces and cabinet space for utensils, serving ware, and propane tanks.
  • Seating & Bar Areas: Integrating bar seating allows guests to interact with the chef, creating a truly communal experience.
• Premium Material Selection: The aesthetics and longevity of your outdoor kitchen depend on the materials. We use robust, weather-resistant options:
  • Masonry Bases: Constructed from durable stone veneer, natural stone, or brick to provide a sturdy and attractive foundation. These tie into our “hardscapes” expertise.
  • Countertops: Granite, sealed concrete, or outdoor-rated tile offer beauty, durability, and easy maintenance.
  • Appliances: We recommend and install high-quality outdoor-rated appliances designed to withstand the elements.
• Utilities & Safety: Proper installation of utilities is crucial for safety and functionality. We meticulously plan and install gas lines, water lines, drainage, and electrical outlets for lighting and appliances. All installations adhere to strict safety codes and regulations, ensuring your outdoor kitchen is not only beautiful but also safe and fully compliant.
• Seamless Integration: Our designs ensure your outdoor kitchen flows seamlessly with your existing patio, deck, or other “landscape construction” elements, creating a cohesive and luxurious outdoor living environment.

Gather Around the Glow: Fire Pits & Outdoor Fireplaces
There’s something primal and universally appealing about gathering around a fire. A custom-built “fire pit” or “outdoor fireplace” creates an irresistible focal point, providing warmth, light, and an unmatched ambiance for evening conversations and cherished memories.

• Custom Fire Pits: Designed for intimate gatherings, fire pits can be round, square, or custom-shaped, and are typically lower to the ground.
  • Fuel Source: We install both wood-burning fire pits (for the authentic crackle and aroma) and gas-burning fire pits (for instant on/off convenience and no smoke). Gas lines are expertly run for safety and efficiency.
  • Material Selection: Built from durable and attractive materials like natural stone, brick, concrete block, or stucco, often matching or complementing surrounding “hardscapes.”
  • Integrated Seating: We can design built-in stone or brick seating walls around the fire pit for a cohesive and comfortable gathering space.
• Outdoor Fireplaces: For a grander statement and a more traditional feel, an outdoor fireplace offers a dramatic focal point.
  • Architectural Integration: Designed to mimic indoor fireplaces, these often feature a chimney, hearth, and mantel, built from stone or brick. They provide a beautiful backdrop and are perfect for larger entertaining areas.
  • Functionality: Beyond ambiance, they offer heat, and some can even be fitted with pizza ovens or cooking grates.
  • Safety & Codes: We ensure proper ventilation, adhere to local clearance codes for combustibles, and utilize fire-rated materials throughout the construction, guaranteeing a safe and enjoyable experience.

Other Custom Masonry Features: Defining Details
Beyond kitchens and fire features, our masonry expertise allows us to craft a variety of other custom elements that add distinction and elegance to your landscape, utilizing the durable beauty of stone and brick.

• Entry Pillars & Gateways: Enhance the entrance to your property or garden with custom stone or brick pillars that add architectural grandeur and a sense of arrival. These can support gates or simply stand as decorative statements.
• Stone Bench Seating: Integrate durable and naturally beautiful stone benches into “retaining walls,” garden beds, or as stand-alone features, providing permanent, low-maintenance seating options that blend with the landscape.
• Decorative Planters: Bespoke masonry planters crafted from brick or stone provide unique, permanent homes for your favorite plantings, adding structure and sophistication to patios, entries, or garden areas.
• Artistic Masonry Accents: From specialty brick patterns in a paved area to unique stone overlays on existing structures, we can create custom accents that provide unique character and highlight specific areas of your landscape.
