Outdoor Kitchens for Backyard Entertaining
From a simple built-in grill station to a full cooking and serving area — built to last outdoors.
Outdoor Kitchen Installation
An outdoor kitchen makes the backyard a place to cook, eat and host — not just a place to set up a grill. Projects range from a compact grill island to a full kitchen with counters, a bar and seating.
Planning starts with location, size and workflow: where you prep, cook, serve and clean up, and how the kitchen connects to the patio, seating, shade and paths. Wind direction, afternoon sun and traffic flow all factor in.
Common features include a built-in grill, counter space for prep, cabinets, a bar for serving, a sink, a spot for a fridge, pull-out trash and low seating walls.
We build with materials that handle Utah weather — stone, block, concrete and paver elements — on a properly prepared base.
We’ll go over utility needs at the consultation and make sure any gas, electrical or plumbing work is done by properly licensed professionals.
Outdoor kitchens are often part of a bigger project with a paver patio, retaining walls, lighting and lawn.
Our Outdoor Kitchen Installation Process
How an outdoor kitchen project runs.
Design consultation
We plan layout, utilities, drainage and access, then recommend design, materials and appliance layout with a timeline.
Build prep and install
We prepare the base, integrate with pavers, coordinate utility work safely, then build the structure, counters and finishes.
Detail work and walkthrough
We finish the details, clean up and walk you through the completed kitchen and its care.
Outdoor Kitchen Installation FAQs
Outdoor kitchen questions.
How much does an outdoor kitchen cost?
It varies widely with size, materials, appliances and utilities. We’ll talk through options and give you a free estimate.
How long does it take to build?
A simple grill island can take a few days; larger kitchens with utilities take longer. You’ll get a timeline with your estimate.
Can it match my patio and backyard?
Yes. We select stone, block and paver finishes that tie into your existing or new hardscape.
What materials work best in Utah?
Durable masonry — stone, block and concrete — with weather-rated counters and finishes that handle sun and freeze-thaw.
Do you handle utilities and site prep?
We handle base and site prep and plan utility runs with you. Gas, electrical and plumbing connections are completed by appropriately licensed professionals.
