Custom outdoor kitchens designed and built for North Carolina living, weather, and your lifestyle.
Your backyard becomes the place everyone wants to gather. No more running back and forth to the indoor kitchen while your guests wait outside. No more missing conversations because you’re stuck inside prepping food.
A properly designed outdoor kitchen changes how you use your space. You’ll find yourself cooking outside more often, even on weeknight dinners. Weekend gatherings become effortless when everything you need is right there – prep space, cooking surfaces, storage, and cleanup areas all designed to work together.
The right outdoor kitchen fits your cooking style and your space. Whether you’re grilling for two or hosting neighborhood parties, every element gets planned around how you actually use your outdoor space. And because we build these to handle North Carolina weather, you’re not dealing with constant maintenance or replacing components every few years.
Union Landscaping and Hardscape S Corp has been creating outdoor living spaces throughout Druid Hills North and the surrounding areas. We understand North Carolina’s climate challenges – the humidity, the temperature swings, the occasional severe weather that can destroy poorly built outdoor installations.
Our approach combines landscape design expertise with hardscape construction skills. That means your outdoor kitchen integrates seamlessly with your existing yard, drainage patterns, and outdoor living areas. We’re not just installing appliances and countertops – we’re creating cohesive outdoor spaces that work with your property.
Every project gets handled by our team from initial design through final cleanup. We handle permits, utility connections, and coordinate with any needed subcontractors so you’re dealing with one point of contact throughout the entire process.
We start with a site visit to understand your space, how you cook, and what you want from your outdoor kitchen. This isn’t a generic sales pitch – we’re looking at drainage, utility access, sight lines, and how the kitchen will connect to your existing outdoor areas.
Design comes next, where we create detailed plans showing exactly what gets built where. You’ll see material selections, appliance placement, storage solutions, and how everything connects to gas, electric, and water lines. We handle permit applications and get everything approved before any construction starts.
Construction begins with site preparation and utility rough-ins. We install the foundational elements first – concrete work, utility connections, and structural components. Then we build up the kitchen structure, install appliances, add countertops and finishing materials. Throughout the process, we coordinate inspections and keep you updated on progress.
Final walkthrough happens when everything’s complete and tested. We show you how everything works, provide care instructions for materials and appliances, and make sure you’re completely satisfied before we consider the job finished.
