Outdoor Kitchen Builders in Joppa, MD


Masonry Outdoor Kitchens From a Family-Run Joppa Crew

M.E.V. Outdoor Solutions are outdoor kitchen builders based in Joppa, MD, run by three brothers who started the company in August 2016. We build masonry outdoor kitchens around Bull and Blaze grills, with counters, storage and bar seating set right on your paver patio. Planning a new patio too? We build both, so the kitchen and the stone under it come from one crew.

What Outdoor Kitchen Installation Involves

1. Design Visit: We look at the yard, the door you carry food through, where the smoke will drift and how you like to cook. Custom outdoor kitchen design starts there, not from a catalog.

2. Written Quote: You receive a detailed proposal covering equipment, layout and finishes, so the price is settled before any block goes down.

3. Base and Masonry: The island sits on a solid, level base, then we build the masonry shell that holds the grill, doors and counters.

4. Utilities, Appliances and Finish: We handle plumbing, electrical and appliance installation, then set countertops and lighting so the kitchen is ready the first night you fire it up.

Outdoor Kitchen Projects That Usually Start With the Patio

Most outdoor kitchens we build grow out of one of these situations

The patio is finished but bare, and someone is always running plates back inside. The yard slopes, so it needs a retaining wall and a level pad before a grill island can go in. Or the old rolling grill finally rusted out and you want something built to stay.


How Our Outdoor Kitchen Builders Plan the Layout

  • Grill Islands: A straight run of masonry with a Bull or Blaze grill, storage doors and counter space on both sides. Right for a smaller patio.
  • L-Shaped Layouts: Prep on one leg, cooking on the other, so two people can work without bumping elbows.
  • U-Shaped Kitchens With a Bar: Bar seating wraps around the cook, which keeps guests talking to you instead of crowding the grill.
  • Covered Kitchens: Built under a pavilion or pergola that gives you light and shade, so a passing shower does not end the cookout.

Outdoor Kitchen Cost and Financing

Every outdoor kitchen is priced from the layout and appliances you pick, so we do not post a flat number. A grill island costs far less than a U-shaped kitchen with a bar, fridge and sink. The estimate is free, financing is available, and you see the full number in writing before anything gets built. Want ideas first? Look through finished projects in our photo gallery.

Outdoor Kitchen Questions From Joppa Homeowners

Do you build outdoor kitchens around Bull and Blaze grills?

Yes. We build masonry outdoor kitchens around Bull and Blaze appliances, with the counters, storage and bar seating laid out around them.

How much does an outdoor kitchen cost in Joppa?

It depends on the size, layout and appliances. A simple grill island and a full U-shaped kitchen with a bar are very different jobs. The estimate is free and financing is available.

How long does outdoor kitchen installation take?

Our average project turnaround is about four days. Your written proposal shows the schedule for your kitchen before work begins.

Can I use an outdoor kitchen year-round in Maryland?

With planning, yes. A pavilion or pergola overhead and a fireplace or fire pit nearby stretch the season well past summer.

More than likely yes. If you found us searching for outdoor kitchen builders near me anywhere in Harford County or northeast Baltimore County, give us a call at (410) 340-9403.
