Cook, Eat, and Stay Outside All Day Long
The real test of an outdoor kitchen is whether you stop walking back inside.Â
That comes down to how close the grill, prep counter, fridge, and trash are. When they’re all within a step, you can cook and eat out here while the indoor kitchen stays clean.Â
We take pride in our vertical work. Walls, steps, raised counters, and multi-level builds are what we specialize in, and an outdoor kitchen is exactly that: a bar and its footings built up off the ground to hold through Colorado winters.

Outdoor Kitchens We've Built Around Denver
Outdoor Kitchen FAQs, Answered
Outdoor kitchens are great because they keep the mess outside your home during gatherings. You can cook for everyone outdoors without needing your other kitchen.
Another great benefit is that cooking outdoors is more relaxing and enjoyable. Nothing compares with admiring the views while cooking the best steak ever.
Generally, a medium-sized outdoor kitchen takes us about 1 month to finish. First, we’ll do the design, which takes anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks.Â
We’ll order the materials and wait another 2 weeks or more, depending on availability. From there, we’ll start installing the paver patio, build the bar, and install the countertop, backsplash, and appliances.
How Your Outdoor Kitchen Connects to the Rest of the Yard
A grill retailer sells you the appliance and the stainless cabinet it sits in. Everything around it is a design decision. That’s why at Land Designs By Colton, one crew draws and builds the whole yard.
- Grade and levels. Most Denver yards slope, so the kitchen needs a retaining wall or a set of steps to sit level.
- Materials for how you use it. The counter surface has to handle drinks being set down every few minutes, and the paver patio has to take a full evening of traffic for years without shifting.
- After dark. A pergola or a fire feature keeps the space usable once the sun sets behind the Front Range.
- Water and drainage. The grade is planned carefully so water drains away during a hard August storm.
- Built and permitted. Because these are structures on footings, the work meets City of Denver plan review and permit requirements where they apply.

These guys were SO awesome to work with! They took my dirt backyard and turned it into a beautiful, relaxing space with great spots to hang out. Everyone on the crew was super polite and did such a great job. I’m so happy with how it turned out!
