The pool is where you swim. The deck, kitchen, shade, and fire are where you live. They should be designed together.
Outdoor living is everything on the deck side of the coping: the decking itself, an outdoor kitchen with real appliances, a pergola or insulated cover with fans and lights, fire bowls and fire pits, and the landscape and lighting that finish the yard. We design it with the pool so utilities, drainage, and finishes are planned once. Call (941) 555-0142 to schedule a free design consultation.
Included with every outdoor living project
Kitchen, cover, and fire are in the same 3D model as the pool, not added later.
Gas, water, drain, and power are run during the pool build so nothing gets torn up.
Covers and pergolas are permitted and engineered to local wind code.
Every element itemized in the same agreement as the pool.
Deck, masonry, and carpentry by Kingfisher employees.
Coping, deck, veneer, and countertops chosen together so they belong together.
Outdoor living fails when it is bolted on after the pool. Every deck, kitchen, and cover we build in Sarasota and Manatee is designed with the pool and includes these, already in your fixed price.
Travertine and light pavers run far cooler than poured concrete in a Sarasota August, so the deck is usable at 3 pm.
Gas, water, drain, and electrical are run before any paver goes down, so nothing is ever cut into a finished deck.
Pergolas, insulated covers, and louvered roofs are engineered to code, permitted, and anchored to poured footings.
A compacted base, deck drains, and a consistent slope away from the house come standard, so summer storms leave no puddles.
A new deck and coping starts around $18,000, a deck with kitchen and cover around $48,000, and a full outdoor living space around $85,000. Every yard is different. Here is the honest ballpark, and what comes standard with every Kingfisher backyard.
Placeholder starting ranges. Outdoor living is itemized on the same fixed-price agreement as the pool, so you can phase it if you prefer. See the Pool Buyer’s Guide for what drives cost.
Every deck, kitchen, and cover here was designed with the pool and built by the same crew.

We model the house, pool, and lot, then render the deck, kitchen, cover, fire, and planting at full scale, in daylight and after dark. You walk through it on screen and change anything you like. The design is free, and it becomes your fixed price.
We measure, note sun and wind, and ask how you cook, sit, and host.
Your designer builds the deck, kitchen, cover, fire, and planting around your pool, day and night.
Move the kitchen, extend the cover, swap the pavers. When it is right, every element is priced in writing.
Tap a pin or a feature to explore it. Toggle on what you want and we will design and price the whole list with your pool.
Structures, kitchens, decks, utilities, and lighting each carry a written term on the same agreement as the pool. Pick a term, or click an element in the cross-section.
