Posted by Gappsi Group on

Outdoor-Kitchen-Pavilion-with-Pizza-Oven-Built-in-Dix-Hills-NY3Gappsi completed this Outdoor Kitchen Pavilion with a Pizza Oven in Suffolk County Long Island.

Create your ideal backyard by adding all the conveniences of the indoors.  When you enhance your outdoor living area with a grill, pizza oven, kitchen island, landscape lighting, or outdoor heating you extend the time you can entertain outdoors.

Gone are the days when your friends as well as family leave your outdoor celebration because it’s getting too dark, too cold, or too rainy. When you have an outdoor pavilion with a fireplace and kitchen, your outdoor entertaining can last well into the night. Not only will the fire from the fireplace keep you warm and toasty, but it can also provide a relaxing light source for lighthearted conversation and reminisce of days gone by.

Plus, when you have an outdoor kitchen in your pavilion, you can keep the tasty food cooking throughout the night. Whether it’s burgers on the grill or pizza in your pizza oven, you can cook outdoors in a shaded structure, like a pavilion, no matter the temperature or weather.

The Pavilion was a kit purchased through Country Lane Gazebos.  Each pavilion is built to order and completely customizable to your specifications.  Gappsi is a dealer for Country Lane.  They offer the highest quality, Amish-built Gazebo, Pergola, and Pavilion Kits.  Their outdoor structures are made from durable materials, including wood, vinyl, and aluminum, and designed to withstand the elements.

Have The Outdoor Kitchen of Your Dreams

More and more, outdoor areas include a fully functional outdoor kitchen, fireplaces or fire pits, cozy seating, advanced lighting, and heating systems.  Our recent Pavilion installation included veneered columns for each post to sit on, which enhanced the overall design and aesthetics.  We added a kitchen with an island under it.  The island includes a Tan Brown Granite countertop.  This long-lasting natural granite is appropriate for a variety of indoor and outdoor applications including walls, floors, countertops, and other architectural components.  On one side the counter is raised to bar height.  A bi-level countertop invites contrast from a design perspective, which can help you achieve some visual interest in your Gappsi kitchen design. This contrast could be further emphasized by using different countertop materials for the lower and higher portions of the counter.

Fire Magic Outdoor Kitchen Appliances

The outdoor kitchen included appliances made by Fire Magic and a Summit Refrigerator.  Designed and made in the USA.  Fire Magic Grills combines high-tech features, craftsmanship, styling, & performance to create a superior outdoor kitchen.  Their true-width cooking grids offer some of the largest cooking areas by square inch in their size classes, allowing you to cook more food at once.

Fiorito Travertine Patios and Pool Coping

Posted by Gappsi Group on

Fiorito-Travertine-Patios-and-Pool-Coping2Travertine Patios and Pool Coping are the perfect stone material to use on Long Island NY for your outdoor living space.  Travertine is a natural stone,  created in shallow bodies of water.  The residue of lime settled and built up over millions of years in a massive thick block. The colors of the travertine derive from soil and minerals that contaminated the ground in the area where lime settled. Fossils trapped between the bodies of travertine accumulate and become the exposed holes you see in the travertine surface.

Formed beneath the hot springs over millions of years Travertine is a gorgeous stone material. When geothermal groundwater heats up, water shoots up, thus creating the pits and unique character on the surface of each stone.  The holes on the travertine pavers may appear to be a defect to some people, but it’s not. It is just a natural occurrence that has happened over millions of years during the stone structure formation. The holes and imperfections of travertine surfaces can never be mistaken with any other stone; it is unique and timeless.

It Stays Cool On Those Hot SUMMER Days!

Travertine is very cool on hot summer days due to the fact that the body structure of travertine is pure lime and contains no minerals or iron.  If you could hire Michelangelo to custom paint your patio I am pretty sure he would not be able to create such a remarkable color pattern as you see in this Fiorito Travertine Stone. This particular Fiorito travertine stone is one of the oldest travertine formations due to the multicolor variation and the line of onyx crystallization that appears on the surface of the stone.

Travertine Pool Decks – What Is It?

Ever so popular, travertine remains one of the most favorable stone tiles because of its unique aesthetics and functionality where it is also used as indoor, patio, and path walk tiles for both residential and commercial use.

A travertine pool deck is an outdoor decking system that utilizes the unique natural beauty and function of travertine tiles. Travertine pool decks offer a rustic appearance, but with the color variations available, you will find that travertine tiles as versatile options that can work on any style you are aiming for.

Color variations include but are not limited to white, gray, beige, silver, rustic black, ivory, walnut, and cream. Travertine tiles give a homey feel to your pool deck area and the subtle differences in the color of each stone will surely make your pool area stand out.

Fiorito-Travertine-Patios-and-Pool-Coping1A beautiful weathered look. Travertine tiles are undeniably gorgeous. Investing in a travertine pool deck will add curb value to your property. You can easily create a comfortable, cozy-looking pool deck with travertine tiles as the graining and primary tile colors have a warm natural color tone.

An attractive quality of Travertine is that it can last a lifetime. With proper care, and correct installation, and is not subjected to extreme wear and tear, average-grade travertine tiles could last over 100 years.

Easy workability. Travertine tiles are easy to cut and shape in any design you want. This advantage makes it easy to work with, especially with uneven surfaces and irregular layouts of pool decks.

Easy and low maintenance. You do not need a little more effort in maintaining your travertine tiles compared to ceramic or marble. See examples of marble pool decks here.

Multicolor Travertine Patio and Coping G035 Fiorito

G035 Travertine Fiorito is a natural stone exclusively produced for Gappsi. It is a unique stone with a large range of color variations created together by Mother Nature. The combination of beige, brown, maroon, gray, gold, peach and many other shades and colors are all in this stone. The finish on this travertine is tumbled and honed. The tumbled finish gives the edges of every stone a rustic look and the honed finish gives a matte and smooth texture, enough to give the top of the stones a comfortable surface when walked on.

It is still considered one of the easiest floor surfaces to maintain. Regular sweeping and light setting on your power wash for removing stubborn dirt.

Gappsi recently designed a backyard and installed a pool for a residence in Islip NY. We built a 20×40 vinyl pool with concrete walls. The pool is 5 inches in the shallow area to 66 inches in the deep-end water height. We installed a 2 inches coping and patio with G035 travertine selected from the Gappsi stone collection throughout the backyard, surrounding the pool up to the backyard sliding door.

Gappsi also created 3 sided steps leading to the backyard. We built a pool house with a sitting area to the outside connecting to the indoors with a window to pass through all trimmed with Azek. The floor was carried throughout the inside of the pool house. A bar area was designed including a refrigerator and storage cabinet with a gas fireplace too! We created an open bean look all painted to match the white trim moldings throughout the pool house. Very beautiful functional layout including a bathroom with many details especially in the columns.  Gappsi built pillars below the swimming pool, they are equipped with an auto cover too.

Travertine Veneers Outdoor Cooking Island

Travertine Veneers Outdoor Cooking Island blog post

Travertine Veneers Outdoor Cooking Island setups are one of the most popular projects Gappsi works on.  It is a great conversation starter for its beauty alone!  The beauty of a travertine veneer on your outdoor cooking island is that it has the power to turn your grill island from ordinary into an accent piece.

If you want to have the best summer BBQs and make all the other neighborhood families jealous, then you are going to need the best outdoor kitchen ideas.

Aside from its functionality, an outdoor kitchen should offer durability and aesthetic appeal. Stone veneer masonry is a popular trend among homeowners and professionals on Long Island.  Travertine Veneers are chosen for their authentic beauty and robust composition, making them ideal for a stunning outdoor kitchen transformation.

Beyond installing the best grill on the patio, adding a grill station offers added conveniences that uplevel the entire barbecue experience.  Outdoor cooking islands can have:

  • side burners
  • smokers
  • warming drawers
  • roasting pits.

It really is the next frontier of at-home entertaining. They also have extra electrical outlets to plug in small appliances, and even shelter from the sun and rain.

Outdoor Grill Station Ideas

An important consideration when designing the space for an outdoor cooking island is where to put it so it works best for the home and the people using it.  Some people may like to make sure the grill is close to the kitchen door and located such that you can keep an eye on the lid thermometer through the kitchen window.

An outdoor kitchen doesn’t have to be hardscaped into your backyard also keep in mind. If a built-in grill station isn’t in your timeline or budget this year, look for freestanding outdoor kitchen carts, islands, or cabinets to create your own custom grill area.

Do you consider yourself a true grilling enthusiast?  If you said yes then head on over to our store to check out our ‘Smokers and Italian Pizza Ovens which add their specialty cooking prowess.

Where Can You Use Stone Veneers?

Veneers are versatile and can cover almost every wall in your outdoor kitchen for this reason they are a popular choice among homeowners. Listed below are 4 of the most ideal places to use veneers.

  • Around the grill, – Around the grill veneers will provide excellent protection for the grill and ensure the section blends in seamlessly with the kitchen design.
  • Over the fireplace – If you like a vintage rustic-looking fireplace then place stone veneers around and over it. Your guests will think it was made out of solid stone blocks.
  • Pizza ovens – You can also get rustic-looking pizza ovens by installing stone veneers over them. The veneers will form a solid barrier around the oven and keep heat trapped helping the cooking process.
