What is an Outdoor Living Kit?

An outdoor living kit is a pre-designed package that includes all the necessary components to create a functional and aesthetically pleasing outdoor space. These kits can range from simple fire pit setups to elaborate outdoor kitchens, fireplaces, relaxing areas, and even fully-equipped outdoor entertainment zones. Designed for easy installation, our kits provide everything needed to transform an ordinary backyard into a splendid outdoor oasis. You will get everything you need to complete your kit- no running back and forth to the hardware store. Moreover, you will know exactly what to expect and the dimensions of your kit. There will be no second-guessing the outcome or designing, changing, and troubleshooting as you build.

Who Are Outdoor Living Kits For?

Outdoor living kits are for anyone looking to enhance their outdoor space without the hassle and expense of custom landscaping projects. They are particularly appealing to:

  • DIY Enthusiasts: Those who enjoy the satisfaction of building something with their own hands.
  • Homeowners: Individuals who desire a quick and efficient way to upgrade their outdoor living areas.
  • Busy Professionals: People who appreciate the convenience of a pre-planned design that can be implemented quickly.
  • Entertainers: Those who love hosting gatherings and want an inviting outdoor setting for their guests.

Get results FAST with our easy-to-build DIY kits

Juggling multiple variables of hardscape design and installation can be quite daunting. Identifying the most proven materials and products on the market can be overwhelming. Moreover, troubleshooting bespoke designs can result in a waste of valuable resources. Our curated products help you avoid the pitfalls of unproven solutions, saving you time and money.

  • All the materials you need are included. You get extra pieces, so you won’t be held up by a missing or damaged piece.
  • You don’t use mortar. All the pieces are glued together. We even include the adhesive.
  • You don’t cut anything. All the pieces come pre-cut to the size you need. Simply lay them as the instructions show.
  • No special skills are required. You only need to be able to use a level and a caulk gun.
  • Pieces are easy to manage. Unless you install stone slabs (pier caps or countertops), the heaviest piece is 30 pounds.
  • You can build it on a weekend. Once your foundation is ready, your kit can be built quickly. You stack and glue.

What to Expect When You Order an Outdoor Living Kit

Ordering an outdoor living kit is a straightforward process that leads to exciting results. Here’s what you can expect:

  1. Selection and Customization: Choose a kit that fits your space and style preferences. We offer customization options and functional upgrades to tailor the kit to your specific wants and needs.
  2. Delivery and Unpacking: The kit containing all the necessary components, from building materials to instructional guides, will be delivered to your house curbside.
