Outdoor Kitchen
Built-in outdoor kitchen and grill station installation for Davis and Weber County homes. Concrete countertops, stone veneer, and outdoor-rated cabinetry — all tied into your existing patio or new hardscape.
Components: what goes into a built-in outdoor kitchen
A built-in outdoor kitchen starts with a masonry or steel-framed structure — not furniture that can be moved. The frame is built to stay. On top of that frame goes a concrete or stone countertop, the grill station, and whatever additional components you want: built-in refrigerator, side burner, storage drawers, trash pullout, keg tap. The structure is typically clad in natural stone veneer, concrete block, stucco, or porcelain tile chosen for outdoor durability.
The site utility connections are roughed in before the structure goes up: gas line for the grill and side burner, electrical circuit for refrigerator and lighting, and water and drain if a sink is included. Getting these routed before construction is how you avoid cutting through finished stone later. We coordinate with licensed plumbers and electricians for any code-required work and tie the utility rough-ins into the overall project timeline. Outdoor kitchens that are bolted to an existing paver patio or concrete patio are the most common; we can build both the patio and the kitchen as one coordinated project.
Materials and the Utah climate question
Outdoor kitchens in Utah need to be built for real winters. Painted wood cabinetry fails. Standard indoor granite countertops can spall. Materials we use: concrete block or powder-coated steel for the frame, natural stone or porcelain tile cladding, GFRC (glass fiber reinforced concrete) or granite countertops sealed for outdoor exposure, and marine-grade or polymer outdoor cabinetry for drawer and door boxes. These aren't special orders — they're standard choices for any outdoor kitchen that needs to last in a climate with 6-month winters.
Pergola and shade structure integration is often done alongside an outdoor kitchen build. We can coordinate with a pergola contractor or handle simple post-and-beam structures ourselves, depending on the design. The goal is a cohesive outdoor living space rather than a standalone grill bolted to the patio — a kitchen, a dining area, and weather protection that feels like a room, not an appliance store.

Outdoor Kitchen Questions
Common questions about outdoor kitchen installation, materials, and costs in Utah.
A basic built-in grill station with stone veneer and concrete countertop runs $8,000 to $15,000. A full outdoor kitchen with grill, storage, refrigerator, and sink is $15,000 to $50,000+ depending on size and appliance selections. The patio or hardscape under and around the kitchen is priced separately if it's a new build.
For the frame: concrete block or powder-coated steel. For countertops: concrete, GFRC, or granite sealed for outdoor use. For cladding: natural stone, porcelain tile, or exterior stucco. For cabinet boxes: marine-grade plywood or polymer outdoor cabinetry. Painted wood fails in Utah winters. We don't use it.
Yes, if you want a natural gas grill or side burner. We coordinate with a licensed plumber for the gas line rough-in, which happens before the kitchen structure is built. We can also work with a propane setup if your property doesn't have natural gas. Specifying the fuel source is one of the first decisions we make during planning.
The build phase for a standard outdoor kitchen takes 1 to 2 weeks. If we're also pouring a new patio, that adds time for the concrete cure. Utility rough-in (gas, electric, plumbing) happens before the build and may require additional contractor scheduling. We give you a full timeline at the start of the project.
Generally yes, particularly in Utah where outdoor living season runs April through October. Built-in outdoor kitchens are a sought-after feature in the Davis County housing market. The return on investment varies — high-end custom kitchens typically return 50 to 80 cents on the dollar in home value, though the enjoyment during ownership is often the more meaningful factor for most homeowners.
