Our Outdoor Kitchen Services
Design, construction, and repair for custom outdoor kitchens across Santee and East County San Diego
Our Outdoor Kitchen Services
Every outdoor kitchen project is different — some homeowners want a full custom build from an empty yard, others just need a BBQ island added to an existing patio, and some are dealing with an older setup that needs repair. Below is the full range of services we offer, along with what each one typically involves.
Outdoor Kitchen Design
Not every project starts with a finished plan. Our design process covers layout, appliance selection, traffic flow between the kitchen and seating areas, and how the space connects to your home’s architecture and the rest of your yard. Good design accounts for your lot’s slope, sun exposure, and how you actually plan to use the space — not just how it looks in a rendering.
Typically includes:
- Site walk and layout planning
- Appliance and material selection guidance
- Coordination with construction so the design is buildable, not just conceptual
Outdoor Kitchen Installation
For homeowners who already have a patio or hardscape in place, we install a complete outdoor kitchen — cabinetry, countertop, grill, and any additional appliances — without a full-scale renovation. This is often the most direct path to a functional outdoor kitchen when your existing layout, drainage, and access to utilities are already in reasonable shape.
Typically includes:
- Site evaluation of your existing patio or slab
- Cabinetry and countertop installation
- Grill and appliance integration
- Gas and electrical connections tied into existing lines where possible
Custom Outdoor Kitchen Construction
For a full build from the ground up, we handle every stage of the project as one coordinated process: site prep, framing, gas and electrical rough-in, countertops, and finish work. This is the right approach for larger entertaining spaces, hillside or sloped lots, or yards where the patio itself needs to be built or reshaped before the kitchen goes in.
Typically includes:
- Site prep and, where needed, grading or leveling
- Framing and structural build-out
- New gas and electrical line installation
- Countertop, cabinetry, and finish material installation
BBQ Island Installation
A BBQ island is often the right scope for homeowners who want more than a freestanding grill but aren’t ready for a full kitchen. We build islands sized to fit your patio, with options for a side burner, storage drawers, and a small prep counter.
Typically includes:
- Island framing and structural base
- Grill cutout and integration
- Counter surface and storage cabinetry
Built-In Grill Installation
If you already own a grill you like, or want to select a specific unit, we handle the framing, gas line connection, ventilation, and surround construction so the grill is properly and safely integrated into the structure.
Typically includes:
- Framing sized to your specific grill
- Gas line connection and ventilation
- Surround and finish material installation
Outdoor Kitchen Repair
Outdoor kitchens take on weather exposure most indoor kitchens never see. We repair failing grout and stone veneer, replace worn or cracked countertops, fix gas or electrical issues, and address structural problems in aging islands and cabinetry.
Typically includes:
- Diagnosis of structural, gas, or electrical issues
- Countertop and veneer repair or replacement
- Cabinetry and storage repair

Each of our six services has its own calculator. They are built from the cost figures published on these very pages, so the numbers you get here will not contradict the ones you read there.
Every calculator gives a planning range with a full cost breakdown — it is not a contractor quote.
