Bespoke Outdoor BBQ Area - London
Enjoy outdoor cooking, whatever the weather. At MJ Kloss Carpentry, we design and build bespoke outdoor BBQ areas with roofs that bring luxury and practicality to your garden.
Whether you’re after a compact covered BBQ area for a small garden or a large outdoor kitchen with storage and shelter, our team of skilled carpenters and joiners will bring your vision to life with expert craftsmanship and clever design.
Outdoor Kitchens, Built to Last
We create fully tailored outdoor kitchens and BBQ areas across London and the surrounding areas. Using durable materials, weather-resistant finishes, and smart design features, we make sure your outdoor cooking space works all year round—not just during the summer.
A well-designed covered outdoor kitchen lets you:
Cook comfortably rain or shine
Keep outdoor appliances and utensils protected
Extend your entertaining space
Add value to your property
Whether you’re planning a simple outdoor BBQ area or a large covered BBQ area in the UK, we work closely with you to create something truly bespoke.
Why Choose a Covered BBQ Area?
Let’s be honest—British weather is unpredictable. A bespoke outdoor BBQ area with a roof gives you the flexibility to entertain outdoors without constantly checking the forecast. A roofed structure also adds a strong architectural feature to your garden, helping to zone the space and make it feel more like an outdoor room.
There are several roofed options to choose from:
Timber-framed outdoor kitchen pergolas
Pitched or flat-roofed shelters
Gazebo-style BBQ enclosures
Fully integrated outdoor kitchen and pergola combos
Each build is custom by our professional carpenters and joiners, with details like lighting, storage, and integrated worktops added as needed.

Covered Outdoor Kitchen Ideas We Love
If you’re looking for inspiration, we’ve worked on everything from Scandinavian-inspired IKEA outdoor kitchen setups to rustic garden barbecue areas with chunky oak beams. Our outdoor structures range from sleek and modern to traditional and cosy. Some of our favourite features include:
Cedar cladding and hardwood decking
Integrated countertops for food prep
Pull-out drawers and outdoor BBQ storage
Overhead lighting and pendant fixtures
Slatted timber screens for privacy
Built-in bar areas with stools
Looking for inexpensive covered outdoor kitchen ideas? We can design modular or semi-permanent BBQ setups that look fantastic without breaking the bank.
Perfect for Small Gardens Too
Not all outdoor kitchens have to be big. We also build small covered outdoor kitchen ideas that maximise limited space. If you have a BBQ area in a small garden, we can create a smart layout with vertical storage, folding counters, and compact seating. Even a small space can host a stylish barbecue area in the garden—it’s all about clever planning.
We specialise in:
Space-saving outdoor BBQ area designs
Wall-mounted shelving and hooks
Multi-functional furniture
Slimline roofing options
- Decking building in London

Built for the British Climate
We don’t just build for summer—we build for the UK. Every covered BBQ area we create uses weather-treated timber, rust-resistant fixtures, and durable finishes designed to stand up to wind, rain, and frost.
Some of the materials we commonly use:
- Pressure-treated softwood and hardwood
Composite decking for low maintenance
Exterior-grade plywood for cabinetry
Polycarbonate or felt roof coverings
Zinc or aluminium trims for longevity
Did you know? A properly sealed timber structure can last over 15 years with minimal maintenance. Choosing the right materials is key—and we only use high-quality, sustainably sourced timber.
Customise Your BBQ Shelter
Every client is different, so every build is unique. Want a garden bar and BBQ area with integrated seating? No problem. Prefer a rustic BBQ gazebo UK setup with reclaimed wood and festoon lights? We’ve done that too.
Popular customisations include:
Built-in pizza ovens
Wine fridges and ice stations
Sinks with running water
Storage for gas bottles and firewood
Slate or tiled countertops
Timber-framed roof for outdoor kitchen
Whether it’s for summer parties, family cookouts, or just quiet evenings grilling with a drink in hand, we’ll tailor your build to suit your lifestyle.

From Sketch to Structure
We handle the entire process—from design consultation to the final fix. Our team of expert joiners and outdoor kitchen specialists works quickly and cleanly, always keeping your garden in mind.
