Request your free site consultationYou love having people over for a barbecue, but the setup never feels quite right. The grill is pushed into a corner, the seating is too far away, and as soon as the sun drops, everyone is left sitting in the dark. It takes too much effort to make the space comfortable.
A dedicated BBQ and seating area solves the layout. You get a space where the cooking and sitting connect naturally. With the right paving, a sheltered place to relax, and evening lighting, hosting becomes effortless. The garden is ready whenever you are.
We design the area so cooking and relaxing happen together, without the need for a fully fitted outdoor kitchen.
- The seating areaA comfortable, paved space for dining tables or lounge seating.
- The cooking zoneA dedicated, safe standing area for your barbecue or fire pit, positioned so smoke blows away from the guests.
- The evening settingIntegrated lighting, warm planting, and the right surfaces to make the space inviting after dark.
- The coverAdd an open pergola or roofed structure so you have a sheltered place to relax.

Green-Builds lays the base, builds the patio, and runs the lighting as one project.
It is easy to buy a barbecue and some chairs, but it takes proper groundwork and landscaping to make them feel like a permanent part of the garden. You get a cohesive space and one point of contact, start to finish.

The questions people ask first.
What is the difference between this and an outdoor kitchen?
A BBQ and seating area provides a structured, paved space for your freestanding equipment and furniture. An outdoor kitchen includes built-in worktops, permanent storage, and often plumbing.
