About Dining Patios
A dining patio is a room without walls. It needs a level, well-drained floor, space to pull chairs out, shade for midday and warm light for evening, all close enough to the kitchen to carry a platter.
We size the patio to the table you want, pick a surface that stays steady under chairs and plan the pergola, the lights and the planting so the space feels like an extension of the house.
