Custom outdoor kitchens designed for North Carolina living, built to last through every season and gathering.
Picture this: summer evenings where the heat stays outside while you prepare dinner under the stars. No more shuttling between your indoor kitchen and the deck, missing conversations and moments with family and friends.
Your outdoor kitchen becomes the natural gathering spot where kids grab snacks after school and adults linger over weekend coffee. The space works as hard as you do, handling everything from quick weeknight grilling to holiday entertaining for extended family.
When you invest in a professionally designed outdoor kitchen, you’re not just adding square footage. You’re creating a lifestyle upgrade that increases your home’s value while giving you countless reasons to spend more time in your own backyard. Every meal becomes an opportunity to enjoy North Carolina’s beautiful weather, and every gathering feels more relaxed when the cooking happens outside.
Union Landscaping and Hardscape S Corp has been creating outdoor living spaces throughout University City North for years. We understand what works in North Carolina’s climate and what doesn’t.
Too many outdoor kitchens look impressive but fail when it comes to daily use. Countertops that can’t handle the heat, storage that traps moisture, or layouts that make cooking awkward and inefficient.
We focus on building outdoor kitchens that enhance how you actually live. Every project starts with understanding how you cook, how you entertain, and what you need from your outdoor space. Then we design and build something that delivers on those needs for decades to come.
We start with a consultation at your home to understand your vision, assess your space, and discuss your budget. This isn’t a sales pitch—it’s a planning session where we listen to how you want to use your outdoor kitchen and identify any potential challenges early.
Next comes the design phase where we create detailed plans that show exactly what your outdoor kitchen will look like and how it will function. We handle all permits and approvals, so you don’t need to navigate city requirements or HOA processes.
Construction begins with site preparation and utility connections, followed by building the structure and installing appliances. We coordinate all trades and suppliers, keeping the project moving smoothly while maintaining quality standards. Throughout the process, you’ll know what’s happening and when, with regular updates and clear communication about any adjustments needed.

Your outdoor kitchen project includes everything needed for a fully functional cooking and entertaining space. We handle the structural work, utility connections, countertop installation, and appliance integration as a complete package.
Materials are selected specifically for North Carolina’s climate—countertops that won’t crack in temperature swings, cabinetry that resists moisture, and finishes that maintain their appearance through hot summers and occasional winter freezes. We work with appliance brands that offer reliable outdoor-rated equipment backed by solid warranties.
University City North’s established neighborhoods often have specific requirements for outdoor improvements. We’re familiar with local HOA guidelines and city codes, ensuring your outdoor kitchen meets all requirements while enhancing your property’s value and appeal.
