When you’re building an outdoor kitchen, it’s not just about the grill or the fridge—it’s also about how the whole thing looks and holds up outside. The finishes and countertops you pick make a big difference in both style and durability. Here’s a quick rundown of the options we offer and why you might love them.
Finishes for Your Outdoor Kitchen
Longboard
Want that warm, wood-look style without the headache of actually maintaining wood? Longboard’s your answer. It’s aluminum that looks like wood, so you don’t have to worry about it rotting, warping, or fading in the sun. Basically, it gives you the cozy vibe of wood with none of the upkeep.
Metal Finish
If you’re into sleek, modern, or industrial designs, metal finishes are a solid pick. They’re tough, super easy to clean, and look amazing next to stainless steel appliances. Think of it as the “clean and cool” option.
Stack Stone
Stack stone is the classic “outdoor” look. It adds texture, warmth, and blends right in with nature. If you want your outdoor kitchen to feel rustic and inviting, this is a go-to choice. Bonus: it’s tough enough to handle the weather year-round.
Wall Stone
Wall stone gives you that same natural vibe as stack stone, but with a slightly different look and layout. It works great if you want something timeless that feels both rugged and stylish.
Countertop Options for Your Outdoor Kitchen
Granite
Granite is the tried-and-true classic. Every slab has its own unique pattern, so no two kitchens look the same. It’s heat-resistant, durable, and just plain gorgeous. If you like something timeless with a natural look, granite won’t let you down.
Quartzite
Quartzite is another natural stone, often mistaken for quartz, but it’s tougher and more resistant to scratches. It can handle outdoor use really well, and like granite, every slab is unique. If you’re after a balance of durability and natural beauty, quartzite is a strong choice.
Laminam
This stuff is a powerhouse. Laminam can take the heat, shrug off scratches, and won’t fade in the sun. Spilled wine or BBQ sauce? No problem—it’s stain-resistant. If you want something nearly indestructible, this is it.
