DMG Masonry builds outdoor kitchens in Calgary. An outdoor kitchen puts cooking, dining and gathering in one place, so nobody is running back and forth to the house. We build BBQ areas and full outdoor kitchens in masonry, designed around your patio.
An outdoor kitchen is a permanent cooking and dining area, usually a BBQ grill, prep counters, storage and seating built into one masonry structure. It sits outside all year, through heat, moisture and Calgary's temperature swings, so we build it with durable materials and sound construction.
A good layout is what makes it work. From built-in grills and prep counters to bar seating, we plan each feature so the space is comfortable to use and fits your yard.
Layouts planned around youBBQ and entertaining built inMade for outdoor useFor everyday cookingPlanning comes first. We look at how you cook, how much space you have and which materials suit your property, then design for how the kitchen will be used day to day.
We build everything from a simple BBQ station to a full outdoor cooking setup, across north and south Calgary.
Cost depends on the layout, the materials, the size and the features. We give you a clear, detailed quote, so you know what's included before work starts.

The grill is the anchor and everything else is planned around it. A built-in unit sits flush in a masonry surround rather than standing on wheels, which is what turns a barbecue into a kitchen.
The most common regret on a small outdoor kitchen is not enough counter. Landing space either side of the grill is what makes it usable for actual cooking rather than just grilling.
Weatherproof cabinets and drawers keep tools, charcoal and covers outside instead of being carried back and forth from the house. Stainless access doors are the usual choice for Calgary weather.
A sink is optional and adds plumbing, including winterisation so the line can be drained before frost. Worth planning if the kitchen is far from the back door.
Outdoor-rated fridges exist and work, but they need power and most are pulled for winter. We plan the electrical either way so the option stays open.
A masonry pizza oven or a side burner extends what the kitchen can do. These are built in from the start rather than added later, so it is worth deciding early.
Bar seating turns the kitchen into somewhere people gather rather than somewhere one person works. Lighting is what determines whether it gets used after dark.
We didn't have a huge backyard, so I wasn't sure an outdoor kitchen would work. The layout ended up making great use of the space without feeling crowded.
Summer dinners have become a lot more fun since the project was finished. Instead of running back and forth between the house and the patio, everything we need is right outside.
An outdoor kitchen works best when it's planned around how you cook and who you cook for. We build outdoor kitchens in Calgary with practical layouts, so the space gets used.
