Outdoor Living Builders
in Northeast Oklahoma

Pergolas, pavilions, outdoor kitchens, and fire features.

Covered outdoor space is the addition people actually use. We build cedar pergolas, framed pavilions, outdoor kitchens, fireplaces and fire pits — tied into new flatwork so the whole thing reads as part of the house.

Outdoor Living Builders by Summit Construction in Oklahoma
How we approach it

Structure first: a pavilion or attached cover has to carry real wind and water load, tie into the existing roof without creating a leak, and land on footings deep enough to hold. That's framing and flashing work, not carpentry-on-a-patio.

Then the pour. Patio slabs get slope away from the house, joints that line up with the columns, and a finish that isn't slick when wet. Getting the concrete and the structure from one builder is why the posts land on the joints instead of across them.

Kitchens and fire features need the utilities planned before the slab goes down — gas, water, drain, and dedicated circuits. Retrofitting any of those through finished concrete is expensive and it shows.

On cost

Span, roof type, finish level, and how much utility work the kitchen or fire feature needs set the range.

Questions
we get asked.

Pergola or covered pavilion?

A pergola gives filtered shade and an open feel; a solid-roof pavilion or patio cover gives you the space in rain and full sun. If you want to use it year-round, the solid roof is worth the added cost.

Can you attach a cover to my existing roof?

Yes, and the flashing detail where it ties in is the part that matters. Done wrong it's a leak above your ceiling; we frame and flash it as a roof, not an awning.

Does an outdoor kitchen need permits and utilities?

Gas, water, drain, and electrical work generally need permits and inspection. We plan the runs before the slab is poured and handle the paperwork.

Will the new concrete match my existing patio?

New concrete never color-matches old concrete exactly. We usually design the transition — a joint, a border, or a different finish — so it reads intentional rather than mismatched.
