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.
