Block BBQ using split face block



This seven foot long BBQ is built using split face block to give the surface some texture . We poured a colored concrete counter-top which has a decorative bull-nose and the color matches the trim on the house to tie it together . A BBQ from Barber-Que's Galore was used for this unit , a three burner natural gas stainless steel grill . A nice add-on for entertaining.

This 20 foot BBQ was built at a Troon North home for a customer that really enjoys being outside and grilling !  This was built using concrete block , we incorporated this large boulder to give it a piece of Troon right in the BBQ. The counter top is made of concrete then we overlayed the counter top with a high strength acrylic cement to customize the surface. The counter was given a chiseled edge and a stone grain surface . A 6 burner stainless steel grill was used in this unit , we also installed a small refrigerator , stainless steel sink, plus storage draws . Last but not least to this monster outdoor kitchen , we added a wood pergola which we stained black to pick up the black in the native boulders.

Surface Grinding & Preparation

After grinding the surface we also pressure wash and de-grease surface to insure a clean prepped surface.  At this point the surface is ready for many different options. Such as concrete stain and sealer, stamped overlay, stencil overlays or a high quality, deep penetrating concrete paint. Or the concrete can be resurfaced to bring it back to its original state or but be left the way it is.
