Whether you want the full luxury package or are a DIY'er, you'll feel confident when you hire MODE CONCRETE to work with you in ordering, designing and creating your dream outdoor kitchen.  MODE CONCRETE deals with design professionals, building professionals and home-owners, to create luxury outdoor kitchens in the Okanagan Valley.

We will start by assessing your equipment requirements, available space, budget, and how we can integrate an outdoor kitchen into your overall design.  We have knowledge about the “do's and don'ts” of outdoor kitchen design and can advise you on different outdoor equipment options and various construction materials available.

You can choose to have us build the complete outdoor kitchen or we can just build a outdoor kitchen frame, which you can finish with your own construction materials. You can have confidence that MODE CONCRETE has created all openings, cutouts, and clearances accurately, for your outdoor kitchen accessories and grills.  Our outdoor kitchen frames have amazing structural durability and are designed specifically for each individual project.

When picking materials or finishing products (countertops, siding, doors), make sure to pick things like concrete, natural stone or stainless steel.  To get the most life out of your outdoor kitchen we recommend only choosing the strongest materials that will hold up to the outdoor elements, natural erosion, freezing temperatures, UV light and moisture.

Steps for creating the luxury outdoor kitchen of your dreams:

• set up a consultation with us!
• get ready any sketches, pictures, or ideas you have
• make a wish list of the features you would like to see in your outdoor kitchen and living space
• view our website and our suppliers lines for more ideas (we can also discuss the product line, and the pro's/con's with you at the consultation) 
• after we have dimensions of the space, an idea of what you are looking for, and any specific requests (favorite outdoor grill, must haves) we call in the design experts and start putting together some ideas for you
• if required, we are available to create 3D renderings of your future outdoor kitchen or living space
• you approve your custom outdoor kitchen design
• you select the finishing touches (countertops, exterior)
• MODE CONCRETE will now begin building your outdoor kitchen, if required
• if necessary arrangements for gas, electrical and plumbing may need to be made at this stage
• if required, we install the equipment, accessories and make sure everything is working perfectly

Acid Stain your Concrete Block Retaining Wall - article by concrete staining & sealing specialists at MODE CONCRETE in Kelowna BC

Punch some style into your boring concrete, by staining it!

A concrete retaining wall is an important, functional element in any outdoor living space, especially on your driveway or in your backyard.  Concrete left unfinished however, can be plain, boring and totally yawn worthy.  At the very least, you should seal your concrete to protect it from the elements and give it a little luster.  If your concrete surface needs more style consider staining your concrete.  An experienced concrete staining specialist will have a multitude of stains, colors and finishes to choose from.  

Before                                              After

 Before                                               After

After the stain has been applied, we always recommend sealing your concrete to further protect and enhance the concrete's appearance of the stained finish.  MODE CONCRETE can also apply a wide range of concrete sealers... simply alone, or on top of any concrete stain.  Concrete surfaces like walls, driveways, patios, sidewalks, floors, pool decks, garage floors all require sealers to protect them from damage, wear/tear and the natural environmental factors the surface is exposed to.  By properly maintaining and protecting your concrete, you will add years of life to your concrete surface.

Here is the plain concrete block (left), next to a stained concrete block (right).

Water Front Concrete Repair, Reinforcement and Maintenance - water erosion reparied by the specialists at MODE CONCRETE in Kelowna BC

When you are lucky enough to have a lakefront home, you have to deal with the natural erosion that inevitably occurs.  Erosion is a natural process that causes a gradual wearing away of surfaces by water, ice and wind. Erosion causes slumping, surface runoff, silt deposits, and if left unchecked, major property, building damage and concrete deterioration. Protect your shoreline by creating a buffer zone and repair deteriorating items as soon as you spot them.

We were hired by a client to help repair this crumbly, hollow, water front concrete pad.  With old or aged cement or concrete docks, the only option is repair the concrete and try and work with what exists already.  As far as we know, it is against the current bylaw's to fabricate new concrete docks or patios this close to the water.  Homes or properties with existing concrete shore-side have the option of structurally reinforcing what is already there... the zero-waste and green option!

Repairing the concrete or cement that is already there, is a great option because... 1) it's affordable 2) it's green and creates zero waste 3) concrete is stronger than any other material 4) takes minimal time to repair and concrete dries quickly 5) concrete can be stained to disguise the repairs 6) you can top the concrete with any material of your choice if you'd prefer 7) is easily repaired by concrete experts who have plenty of experience.

Home or properties with existing water front concrete have the option of structurally reinforcing what is already there, the zero-waste and green option.

 

The concrete was hollow and crumbly underneath this slab, so we created large holes that were filled with concrete and large lengths of rebar, all tied into the existing concrete surface.

  

After these are the after shots (the concrete appears darker since it's still fresh, but once dry you'll barely notice the repair).  Another happy client ready to enjoy the beautiful beachside, BC weather!

Every project is different, but an experienced concrete contractor should easily be able to assess your project, give you options, show you samples and work with you to achieve the results you desire within your budget and estimated price.  We are experts at concrete installation, forming, concrete refinishing and all decorative concrete applications.
