Custom outdoor kitchens designed for North Lake’s lifestyle, built to last through Carolina weather year-round.
Picture this: weekend mornings grilling breakfast while coffee brews, evening dinner parties where you’re not stuck inside missing conversations, and holidays where everyone naturally gravitates to your outdoor space. That’s what happens when your outdoor kitchen actually works for how you live.
You get more than just another place to cook. You get a space that extends your home’s footprint, keeps you connected to guests while you prep, and handles everything from quick weeknight dinners to elaborate entertaining. The right outdoor kitchen design transforms how you use your entire backyard.
Most importantly, you stop feeling like outdoor cooking is a hassle. Instead, it becomes the reason people want to come over, and the space where your family naturally spends time together.
Union Landscaping and Hardscape S Corp has been handling outdoor kitchen projects throughout the North Lake area for years. We understand Lake Norman’s building requirements, HOA guidelines, and what materials hold up in North Carolina’s humid summers and unpredictable winters.
You won’t find us cutting corners on weatherproofing or skipping permit processes. We handle the technical details so you don’t have to worry about code issues or callbacks two years down the road.
Our approach is straightforward: we listen to how you want to use your space, design something that makes sense for your property, and build it right the first time.
We start with a site visit to understand your space, utilities, and vision. No generic designs or cookie-cutter approaches. We measure everything, assess your existing landscape, and discuss your cooking style and entertaining needs.
Next comes design and planning. We create detailed plans that show exactly what you’re getting, handle all permit applications, and coordinate utility connections. You’ll know the timeline, materials, and costs upfront.
Construction happens in phases: site preparation, utility rough-ins, structural work, and finishing. We keep you updated throughout and handle inspections as needed. The goal is a finished outdoor kitchen that’s ready to use immediately, with all systems tested and working properly.

Every outdoor kitchen project includes complete design services, permit handling, and construction management. We source materials that work in North Carolina’s climate and coordinate all utility connections including gas lines, electrical, and plumbing.
You get weatherproof construction designed for our area’s conditions. That means proper drainage, sealed surfaces, and materials that won’t deteriorate in humidity or freeze-thaw cycles. We also handle integration with your existing hardscape and landscaping.
Our projects include appliance installation, countertop fabrication, and final cleanup. We test everything before calling the job complete and provide you with maintenance information and warranty details. The outdoor kitchen is ready to use when we’re done.
