Who can resist the emotion fuelled angst of this Season’s ratings winner….Married at First Sight! With all the scandal of previous seasons (somewhat turned up we might add) we’ve been enjoying the crazy antics and ridiculous matchings the ‘experts’ have put before us. We’ve decided to do our own bit of match making however…

What’s Summer without a great Aussie BBQ! This beautiful time of year just begs for outdoor entertaining and the backyard barbie is usually front & centre. But what BBQ should you choose for your Outdoor Kitchen?

You’ve planned your outdoor kitchen and spent hours deciding on layout, cabinet colours and bench tops. But what about the BBQ? It’s definitely one of the most important choices you’ll make so you want to make sure you get it right. We supply BBQ’s with all of our outdoor kitchens and have showcased some of our favourite picks below for their aesthetic appeal, performance & durability.

Continuing our series on the best Outdoor Kitchen Benchtops, we’d like to introduce the Dekton range. With its sophistication, modern look and high performance features, it’s definitely one to consider when designing your Outdoor Kitchen.

So firstly, what exactly is Dekton we hear you ask? Well in non-technical terms it is a new and very advanced surface that is created by replicating a process that occurs naturally in nature. In nature, this process takes thousands of years and is the gradual compacting of natural stone under high temperatures and pressure. Dekton have perfected this process, calling it ‘Sintering’ and it takes merely hours to do, resulting in a very high performing, strong & resistant surface that looks amazing. But don’t take our word for it…keep scrolling...

Part 1 - Corian by DuPont     

Deciding which colour to choose for your outdoor kitchen cabinets can be tough! There’s a lot to choose from. What’s going to look great? What isn’t going to date? What will the whole family love?

From classic white to contemporary shades of grey and loads in between, choosing your cabinet colours can be tricky. We’ve studied the sales data and listed below the Top 8 Colours our customers have chosen this year. Which one is your favourite?

The hottest show on television right now, Married At First Sight, has taken over the conversation here in the office! To celebrate the end of the Season we’ve matched the last 5 couples up with an outdoor kitchen that we feel best suits their unique personalities.

Whether you’re a Sarah & Telv fan, a Tracey & Dean disapprover or a Troy & Ash admirer, you’ve no doubt grown to love the show like we have. Here’s our take on the outdoor kitchen that would suit the final 5 couples.

Charlene & Patrick

It’s fairly obvious that Charlene & Patrick are heavily in the friends zone. While Patrick is keen for more, Charlene just isn’t going there with the lovable gentle giant. We love Pat though for his strong morals, emotional intelligence and ‘good guy’ vibe that he portrays. We think the perfect outdoor kitchen for these 2 is one of our latest installs pictured here. With plenty of room to spread out this is the perfect choice for family focused Pat & Charlene. Everyone can get together and have a great time without being right in each other’s space. The handy bi-fold windows to inside also means that Charlene won’t miss any of her mother-in-laws scathing comments no matter where she is! It’s win-win for everyone.

Designing your Outdoor Kitchen begins with the most important step of all…deciding on the location.

Many home owners get so excited about their new BBQ and Outdoor Kitchen space that they forget to spend a bit of time really considering the best location. A poor location decision can lead to a lifetime of frustration and regret. Get the team from LimeTree Alfresco out early in the process to help from the beginning.

We get asked this question a lot and the simple answer is YES…when done correctly of course.

If you’re looking to improve the value of your home there are countless ways you could go about it. Renovation, extension, adding a pool or spa, new driveway, patio….the list really is endless. An Outdoor Kitchen however is fast becoming the first choice for homeowners and investors alike when it comes to adding real value to a property.

Spring is well and truly here and with it comes beautiful weather that just begs for outdoor entertaining! But where to start? The backyard is a jungle! You’ve barely stepped foot out there for 3 months. But never fear. An outdoor entertaining space is easier to create than you think…

Designing your outdoor kitchen is an exciting, if not overwhelming job. Outdoor kitchens need to be practical, functional & welcoming and with so many design choices it can be difficult to know exactly what you need. It doesn’t have to be confusing though with our simple list of outdoor kitchen must-haves.
