Outdoor Living Areas
Outdoor Living Spaces You'll Actually Spend Time In
A covered patio or outdoor kitchen changes how a family uses their property. Tocher Construction builds outdoor living spaces designed around the way you already gather, whether that’s weeknight dinners, weekend cookouts, or somewhere to sit through an Oregon rain. Our crews handle the framing, roofing, and finish work with the same attention to detail we bring to a full home build, so the space feels like part of the house rather than an afterthought.
No Cutting Corners, Even on a Patio Cover
Troy started Tocher Construction on a simple standard: do the job right or don’t do it. That applies whether we’re framing a new home or building a covered outdoor kitchen. Our crews and subcontractors are vetted, experienced, and easy to have around your family. You’ll know what’s happening at every stage, and you’ll never have to chase us down for an update.
Frequently Asked Questions
What kinds of outdoor living projects do you build?
Covered patios, outdoor kitchens, pergolas, and combined living spaces that connect to the main house. We’ll talk through how you use your backyard and design around that, rather than building a generic add-on.
Will the outdoor space match the style of my existing home?
Yes. We design outdoor living areas to feel like a natural extension of your home’s style and materials, not a separate structure bolted onto the back of it.
Can you work with an existing patio or deck, or does it need to be torn out?
It depends on the condition and layout of what’s already there. In many cases we can build onto or around an existing structure. We’ll assess it during our first walkthrough and give you an honest recommendation either way.
Do outdoor kitchens need special plumbing or electrical work?
Most do, especially if you’re adding a sink, refrigerator, or lighting. We coordinate that work as part of the build so everything is planned and installed correctly from the start.
