Proper fire feature design requires careful planning. Our team considers placement, fuel type, ventilation, safety clearances, and local code requirements to ensure reliable performance and safe operation.

When required, we coordinate with licensed professionals to support gas, electrical, or site-specific needs.

Materials & Durability

Outdoor kitchens must withstand heat, humidity, and weather exposure. We select materials, appliances, and construction methods designed for long-term durability and ease of maintenance in Texas conditions.

When required, we coordinate with licensed professionals to support plumbing, gas, or electrical requirements.

“We had a fantastic experience with Sunset! They were professional, timely and listened to our wants and needs when it came to the design, questions throughout the build and accommodating for life as the process pushed forward. Adam designed exactly what my dreams had in mind and Frank was a top-notch project manager, consistently checking that things were not only completed but completed correctly and catching any issues immediately so they could be rectified and was always responsive within minutes when I’d reach out. My kids and I now have the pool we’ve always wanted and I’d recommend Sunset to anyone building a pool!”
