Outdoor Kitchens in Matthews, NC
Built-in outdoor kitchens with stone or masonry islands, grills, counters, storage and utilities run correctly the first time.

Outdoor Kitchens built for Matthews properties
Matthews combines a historic downtown with established neighborhoods and mature trees. Many homes are 20 to 40 years old, so projects often replace worn patios, failing walls and tired plantings while working around large roots.
We build outdoor kitchens on a masonry or steel-framed structure, faced in stone, brick or stucco and topped with granite, quartzite or concrete counters. Layout is planned around real cooking: landing space beside the grill, prep counter out of traffic, storage where you will actually reach for it, and seating that faces the rest of the yard.
Utilities are the difference between a kitchen and a grill on a slab. We coordinate gas, electric, water and drainage lines under the hardscape before anything is set, so there is no trenching through a finished patio later. Task and ambient lighting, ventilation and weather protection are designed in.

Common Questions
Outdoor Kitchens in Matthews: FAQs
Do you offer outdoor kitchens in Matthews, NC?
Yes. Matthews is part of our regular service area from our base in Cornelius, NC. We work in downtown Matthews, Sardis Road, Fullwood and neighborhoods off Weddington Road, and every project gets a free on-site visit and a written quote.
Do I need a permit for outdoor kitchens in Matthews?
Gas lines and permanent masonry fireplaces usually need a permit, and wood-burning fire pits must follow local burn rules. Matthews handles zoning and tree rules, and building permits run through Mecklenburg County Code Enforcement. We confirm the requirements for your address before work starts.
How soon can you start a project in Matthews?
We usually schedule the on-site visit within a few days of your call. Start dates depend on the season, the size of the job and any HOA or permit approvals, and we give you a clear schedule window in your written quote.
Can an outdoor kitchen go on my existing patio?
Often yes, if the base and slab can carry the load and utilities can be routed. We inspect first — if the base is not adequate we will say so rather than build on it.
Do you also build indoor kitchens?
Yes. Our interior remodeling crews handle indoor kitchens, so many clients do both at once and keep one contract and one schedule.
What about winter weather?
We spec outdoor-rated appliances, doors and finishes, and detail counters and cabinets to shed water so the kitchen holds up year round.
