Outdoor kitchens · Danvers & the North Shore
Outdoor kitchens in fieldstone and granite, laid out around how you cook.
Grill islands, bars and fireplaces built on your patio. Start with a grill island this year and add the bar next year, or build the whole outdoor room at once.
- Free on-site estimates
- Gas & electric planned in
- Owner-run, based in Danvers
01What we build
Cook outside without running back to the house.
Some people want a grill with somewhere to set the platter down. Some want the whole setup: bar, fireplace, TV, lights. We build both, in stone that looks like it belongs on a New England property.
Grill islands
A built-in grill with landing space on both sides, storage drawers and room for a fridge. The one piece most outdoor kitchens start with.
Bars & seating
A raised counter so whoever's cooking can still talk to everyone. Stools on one side, the grill on the other.
Outdoor fireplaces
Fieldstone fireplaces with granite hearths and seat walls. They keep the patio going into October and November.
Covered porches & TV walls
Kitchens under a deck or porch roof, with a TV wall, lighting and outlets planned in from the start.
02Planned before it's built
The layout matters more than the grill.
A great outdoor kitchen is mostly decisions made before anything gets built: where the grill goes, where people sit, where the gas and power come from. Get those right and it gets used every weekend.
- Laid out around the cook
- Grill, prep space and serving counter in the order you actually use them.
- Gas and electric first
- Lines and outlets are planned before the patio goes down, so nothing gets cut in later.
- Smoke and wind
- We place the grill so smoke drifts away from the house and the seating.
- Built for freeze-thaw
- A solid block core on a proper base, granite tops, and outdoor-rated stainless.
03Any size, any budget
Start with a grill island. Grow it from there.
You don't have to build the whole outdoor room at once. We'll design the full plan, build the part that fits your budget now, and leave room and gas lines for the rest.
1Start with the grill
A grill island on your patio
Stone-faced, granite top, built-in grill. Leaves room to add a bar or fireplace later.
2Add a feature
A bar, a fireplace or seat walls
The piece that turns cooking outside into having people over.
3The full outdoor room
Kitchen, bar and patio together
Designed as one project, built in phases if you'd rather spread out the cost.
Or call 617-686-0468 and tell us what you're thinking.
Stone & finishes
Real stone, picked to match the house.
We face islands in fieldstone or stacked stone veneer and top them with granite. We'll bring samples out so you can see them against your siding and patio.
Fieldstone
Rounded New England stone. Warm, old-house look.
Stacked stone veneer
Clean, linear, a little more modern.
Granite tops
Stands up to heat, spills and New England winters.

How an outdoor kitchen project goes.
- Step one
We walk the yard with you
Grade, drainage, access, sun, how you want to use the space. We measure while we're there.
- Step two
You get a written quote
Materials, layout and price in plain terms, with options if you want to phase the work.
- Step three
We build it and clean up
Excavation to final sweep. We haul debris away and leave the lawn around it seeded.

How much does an outdoor kitchen cost?
It depends on the size, the stone, the appliances and what it takes to run gas and power. A single grill island costs far less than a full kitchen with a bar and fireplace. We give free on-site estimates with a written price, and can build in phases.
Do you supply the grill and appliances?
We can build around appliances you've already picked out, or help you choose. Either way we size the island to the actual grill and drawers so everything fits.
Can you run the gas line and electric?
Yes. We plan gas and electric with the layout so lines go in before the patio and island are built, and coordinate the licensed trades that hook them up.
Will it hold up to a Massachusetts winter?
Yes, when it's built right: a solid block core on a proper base, stone or veneer facing, granite tops and outdoor-rated stainless. Covers for the grill and a little care in the fall help too.
Can you add a kitchen to my existing patio?
Often, yes. It depends on the patio's base and where gas and power can come from. We'll look at it on the site visit and tell you straight.
Fieldstone or stacked stone?
Fieldstone has the rounded, classic New England look. Stacked stone veneer is cleaner and more linear. We'll show you finished jobs in both and bring samples to the site.
