Outdoor kitchens are up heating

IC ERNST/PNG files

Self-contained outdoor living spaces are the latest trend in landscaping, but taking your kitchen outdoors requires careful planning.

Have a plan for the big move LISA EVANS POSTMEDIA NEWS More and more, Canadians are making use of their home’s exterior space in a

big way. Take Matt Young and his wife, Cheryl, for example. At least a few times a week, they abandon their indoor kitchen and head outdoors, not to use a standard barbecue — but to cook in their beautiful outdoor kitchen. “ We a lw ay s e n j o y e d spending time outdoors, (so) we wanted something very indoor-like, but outside,” Young says.

An angular bar on the patio contains a built-in barbecue and storage underneath for cooking condiments, napkins, glasses and utensils. Robert Ewing of Outdoor Kitchens and Patios designed the space and says self-contained outdoor living spaces are the latest trend in landscaping. “Outdoor kitchens are becoming more complex,” he

says. He often sees requests for kegerators (a refrigerated unit designed to hold a beer keg), under-counter refrigerators, garbage pullouts, built-in drawers for extra storage, smokers and, of course, barbecues. Taking your kitchen outdoors requires careful planning and safety considerations. Before hanging your chef ’s hat on your patio, Ewing recommends taking

these steps.

The location Although an outdoor kitchen can be self-contained — even including a sink and refrigerator — Ewing suggests locating the outdoor kitchen close to the entrance of the house to avoid disruptions to the flow of traffic throughout the rest of the yard. “When you’re grilling or

smoking, you’re probably still moving food from the inside kitchen (to the outside kitchen).” The seating area should be close enough to the grill to avoid a disconnect between the chef and guests, but not so close that smoke wafts over the dining table. And the outside kitchen should be positioned away from windows.

C o m m e n ta r y

Our economic health is tied to housing market need to put in context. No other city in Canada has seen new home prices escalate like Regina has, with increases of 60.2 per cent over all since 2007. Last week, Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation (CMHC) announced housing starts in Regina have moderated so far this year and are trending to finish at approximately 1,900 for 2014. It all can sound like a bit of a cliff when you consider that in 2012 and 2013 Regina started over 3,000 new homes each of those years. Again we need to add some longer term context to these numbers. When I moved to Regina in the early ’90s there was all of 189 new housing starts that year. Our country was coming out of recession and people were leaving this province by the truck load. By 2004, our province seemed more stable and we built 1,242 new homes that year. When the stock market crashed in September of 2008 and the great recession took hold around the world in 2009, I remember people in Regina feeling a little bit like we dodged a bullet. We had 930 housing starts that year. After one of the largest housing price escalations in Regina’s recent history and the term Sask-a-boom showing up in the

Stu Niebergall New stories about the Regina housing sector have been popping up over the last few weeks that have a different tone than what we have become accustomed to over the past few years. The start of May brought the Globe and Mail headline, “Why Regina has seen the steepest home price declines this year.” The article described Regina’s average home price dropped in March year over year by 1.93 per cent, while the aggregate for major Canadian cities had grown 5.19 per cent. These figures, however, need to be put in context. Since March 2011 the average home price in Regina has actually risen by 12.44 per cent, and has increased by 30.5 per cent since March 2009. Statistics Canada New Home Price Index tells a similar story. From March 2013 to March 2014 the price of purchasing a new home in Regina only increased by 1.6 per cent. Once again, these figures

headlines, in 2011 1,694 new homes were created. My point is that with CMHC predictions of 1,900 housing starts for 2014, from an historical perspective, we are still well within what is considered a healthy housing market in Regina. Although some slowing in the housing industry does actually provide some important relief from the upward pressure on home prices, it is too easy to write these fluctuations off as simple market cycles. It is important that as citizens we hold our municipal and provincial leaders accountable to not take the growth we have enjoyed for granted. The health of housing is key for the overall state of our local and provincial economy. The housing industry’s new and resale markets is an engine of job growth and wealth creation for citizens when the right polices are in place. The expansion of new homes and neighbourhoods in Regina has direct economic benefits because home building and associated businesses provide such a wide range of employment creating an enormous ripple effect. When new housing is created not only do framers, electricians, plumbers and carpenters benefit, to name a few who are eco-

nomically engaged in our industry, but other jobs are spread over other sectors of the economy, including retail, manufacturing, wholesale and other business services. While home construction will continue to be an important part of our local and provincial success, the residential construction industry does see new headwinds arising. Increasing material prices and worker shortages are part of those challenges, but access to affordable residential lots is becoming a significant issue, and this is directly impacted by municipal and provincial policy. This, mixed with increasing regulatory environment from all levels of government and increasing red tape at the municipal level only drives additional cost into the price of a home. All too often, governments at all levels justify loading up an ever broader array of fees, levies and charges onto the price of homes, and this is true right across the country. What gets ignored is how these ever-increasing charges get passed onto new home prices, artificially increasing the price of existing homes as well. Now we have come to a place where this has contributed to home ownership prospects ultimately being reduced for

younger Canadians. There is a great deal at stake. The long-term stability of existing housing markets will be greatly affected when first time home buyers are locked out of the market. For when existing homeowners who want to sell, have a diminished number of buyers, the price and equity of their homes will also be diminished. One item that we are also hearing more of these days is that with the rising cost of housing, Canada’s middle class is also impacted with significant increases in their amount of household debt. Seven years ago this month the City of Regina announced its new vision, “Canada’s most vibrant, inclusive, attractive, sustainable community, where people live in harmony and thrive in opportunity.” Since that time little consideration has occurred by the municipality on the numerous large and small public policy decisions that the City of Regina has made that have a negative impact on housing affordability. The City vision cannot be fully realized when the dream of home ownership for first time home buyers and for the middle class is eroded even further.

Kitchens Continued from F1 “They can’t handle the heat,” says Ewing, who has seen windows break from extreme heat radiating from grills and steamers.

The design Design the outdoor kitchen around the yard’s landscaping. Whether you’re building a simple or extravagant setup, the design should blend in with the rest of your home’s exterior. “You want to do something to complement the other materials in the space. If there’s retaining walls, steps, raised planters, we will try and match the materials being used to those other structures in the space.” And you need to work with the space you have.

Your outdoor kitchen can be simple with a barbecue and a small counter or as complex as this one above.

The amenities

LL CA

Your outdoor kitchen can be as simple as the one the Youngs have, with a barbecue, small counter preparation area and minimal storage, or as complex as refrigerated drawers, a wood-burning pizza oven and a smoker. Ewing provides clients with a list of all possible amenities and asks them to prioritize and narrow it down to the items they really need.

The cost

Terrie Dunand 306-530-9050

An outdoor kitchen is a luxury, but it doesn’t have to cost a fortune. To reduce costs, Ewing recommends scaling back appliances and accessories and shortening the countertop. “If you don’t require seating at the counter, you can reduce the depth of the countertop, (which) can save you some money,” he says.

MAKE IT RIGHT

Gardening this weekend? Keep your house in mind MIKE HOLMES Make it Right

It’s been a long and brutal winter, but it’s finally Victoria Day weekend — the official start to barbecue season. Many Canadians will be firing up the grill, but not before rolling up their sleeves and getting dirty. This weekend is one of the most popular weekends to do home projects, especially small outdoor jobs like landscaping and gardening. If you’re getting ready to gear up this weekend, here are a

few things to keep in mind. Before you buy landscaping tools, plants, grass seed and soil, take an inventory of your house. Look at the exterior, including the roof, windows, exterior siding and foundation. Are there any new leaks? Are there any new cracks in the foundation, or have older cracks become bigger? What about your windows? How do the framing and windowsills look? Are there cracks in the bricks, or are they flaking or spalling? Is there missing mortar? These are things you — or the right pros — need to fix before you worry about making things look great on the surface. When everything checks out, then you can start to

think about investments — like landscaping — that will enhance the value of your home. Can you imagine spending time and money working on your yard and garden only to have it stomped and trampled by someone who is trying to fix the framing around your windows or sealing a crack in the foundation? If you decide to do some landscaping this weekend, don’t plant anything next to your foundation. Every time you water the plants there you would be directing water right to your foundation. Yo u r h o u s e n e e d s t o b re at h e. I f t h e re i s n’ t enough space between your house and any shrubs or plants, moisture builds up, potentially leading to mould,

termites and other insects. You don’t want to create the perfect environment for these types of problems. And don’t forget about maintenance. How often do you need to water the plants you’re choosing? How often do they need to be pruned? If you don’t have a green thumb, get low-maintenance greenery. You could save yourself a lot of money, time, sweat and tears. You’ll also be saving many plants. If you’ re planning to plant a couple of new trees, choose the right ones for your property and make sure you plant them in areas where they won’t damage your home or your neighbour’s. That means as far away from the house as pos-

sible and ideally away from the sanitary line. Large trees have large branches and foliage that can direct more water to the house, including the roof, siding and foundation. This leads to more wear and tear. And remember, a tree’s roots can be two to three times wider than the tree. Find out how big the tree’s canopy can grow to be — its root system will be just as wide or wider. Tree roots can do a lot of damage to your plumbing and weeping tile. If you have mature trees on your property, contact a professional plumber who can scope your plumbing lines to make sure there aren’t any roots causing damage to your underground pipes.

If you catch the problem early, you can prevent water or sewage from backing up into the house. I don’t know a single homeowner who wouldn’t want to prevent that. Small landscaping projects are good ways to get outdoors and improve your home. But if you don’t know what you’re doing, you could cause problems like messing up the grading or drainage around your property — or worse, your neighbour’s. If you aren’t 100 per cent sure about something, hire a pro. It’s your safest bet. Watch Mike Holmes on Holmes Makes It Right on HGTV. For more information, visit makeitright.ca.

Regular maintenance extends the longevity of your house moisture around bathroom fan vents. With the snow melting and weather improving, Erletz says homeowners should be looking at the exterior of their houses for peeling paint and sealant. “It is important to look for any exposed wood,” he says. “Especially for places on the West Coast, where we get a lot of rain, it is very important that wood has proper weather protection.” Monitoring the quality and integrity of the sealant around doors and windows, and around the fixtures in bathrooms and kitchens, is also necessary to avoid any potential moisture buildup and leakages.

MEGAN COLE THE CANADIAN PRESS VICTORIA — There’s no getting around it: home maintenance is a chore. But the reality is that regular tasks can help extend the longevity of a house and may even defer the need for major repair projects. Marty Erletz, owner and operator of Victoria’s Pillar to Post home inspections, says it’s important to take the time to inspect and monitor your home for signs of deterioration. “A big thing people don’t do is inspect their crawl spaces enough,” says Erletz. “It isn’t a lot of fun going

(protecwindows.com) and I believe worthy of investing in. If it were my project, Phase 1 would include the installation of the oversized doors and windows along with the decking. At the same time, run your gas line and electrical for the outside kitchen that will be installed with Phase 2. You probably currently have a propane barbecue and can make do (like many of us) for another summer. You mention wanting a hot tub. This too is probably on the list for Phase 2. Specify the actual unit you want so you know what to plan for, and speak with a dealer to ensure it won’t be discontinued next year when you go to purchase. As I’m sure you’re aware, outdoor fur niture comes in all price ranges. If your tastes run to the expensive, I suggest waiting to take advantage of end-of-season sales. I assume you have been getting by with some kind of furniture and if you don’t have your ideal pieces this summer, so be it. And remember, feel no shame and make no excuses to your friends for your two-year backyard project. You’re operating with the master plan in mind and fine design is worth the wait.

Q: My husband and I bought a 100-year-old, 4,000-squarefoot home a few years ago. We absolutely love it and have spent the time since moving in concentrating on the interior. We ’ve re f i n i s h e d t h e floors, updated the bathrooms, wallpapered and collected some lovely furniture. We love the juxtaposition of mixing our modern tastes with our Victorian home. What we have completely ignored is the backyard. The kitchen is at the back of the house and we have a standard door that leads into the backyard. We would like French doors, and we have the space because the back of the house is 20-feet wide with the door and a window. Other items on our wish list are a hot tub and outdoor cooking and entertaining area. The difficulty we’re facing is not being able to afford everything we want all at once. Do you have any suggestions on how we could stagger this project over a couple of years so we don’t have to compromise on design. Also, any ideas for a cleanlined french door to open up the back? Thank you. A: It sounds as if you and your husband share my patience for taking the time to do a project correctly. I would rather do my project

in phases and end up with exactly what I want than compromise and have the watered-down version. That said, I think by doing your backyard in two phases, you can achieve your goals without feeling as though your outdoor life is on hold until it’s complete. Phase 1 involves putting the structure into place so you can build on it with Phase 2. First, I would prioritize the wall that leads to your backyard. You mention French doors, but I recommend investigating floor-toceiling doors and windows that give the illusion of a glass wall. Think of how this will completely change your kitchen and back of house with all the light streaming in. The photo I am showing for inspiration is from the award-winning architecture firm, Taylor_Smyth Architects (taylorsmyth.com). I’m not suggesting this is the width or style of your house but I do believe you could achieve the overall look of this outdoor area by choosing the correct patio doors and windows. You mention the juxtaposing styles of your interior and I think you should carry that theme through to your backyard and exterior for a Modern-meets-Victorian feel outdoors as well. The windows and doors used in this Taylor_Smyth project are from Pro Tec
