Custom outdoor kitchens designed for North Carolina living, installed by contractors who understand what works.
You’re not just adding an outdoor kitchen. You’re creating the space where your family actually wants to spend time.
Picture summer evenings where the heat stays outside instead of filling up your house. Weekend gatherings that flow naturally from your kitchen to your yard without the back-and-forth trips indoors. A setup that works as well for Tuesday night dinner as it does for hosting twenty people.
Your outdoor kitchen becomes the hub that connects your indoor and outdoor spaces. It’s where conversations happen while you’re prepping food, where kids hang out while you’re cooking, and where entertaining feels effortless instead of stressful.
Union Landscaping and Hardscape S Corp has been designing and building outdoor spaces throughout Croft and the surrounding North Carolina area for years. We’re the contractors who handle both the hardscape foundation and the landscape integration that makes outdoor kitchens work long-term.
We’ve seen what happens when outdoor kitchens are treated as afterthoughts or quick additions. They end up being expensive mistakes that don’t get used. Our approach starts with understanding how you actually live and cook, then building something that fits your space, your style, and North Carolina’s climate.
We start with a consultation at your property to understand your space, your cooking style, and your goals. This isn’t about selling you the biggest package—it’s about designing something you’ll actually use.
Next comes the design phase where we map out utilities, plan the layout, and select materials that handle North Carolina weather. We handle permits and coordinate with utility companies so you don’t have to manage multiple moving pieces.
Installation begins with proper foundation work and utility connections. This is where our hardscape experience matters—outdoor kitchens need solid foundations and proper drainage to last. We finish with the cooking equipment, countertops, and any landscape integration that ties everything together.

Every outdoor kitchen project includes design consultation, permit handling, and complete installation from foundation to final details. We work with materials that stand up to North Carolina’s weather—from summer heat and humidity to winter freezes.
You get utility planning and installation for gas, electric, and water connections. Our hardscape background means proper foundation work and drainage that prevent problems down the road. We coordinate everything from appliance installation to countertop fabrication.
The result is an outdoor kitchen that works with your existing landscape and home architecture. Not a disconnected addition, but an integrated space that feels like it belongs. We handle the details that make the difference between a showpiece and a functional cooking space.
