Built-in grills, counters and bars that make the backyard the place to gather.
An outdoor kitchen transforms your San Marcos backyard into the gathering place where neighbors and family actually want to be. If you own a river property, a home in Kissing Tree, or one of the older rentals in Blanco Gardens, you've got the land to make this work and the weather to use it year-round. The real challenge isn't dreaming up the layout-it's getting it right the first time, with utilities that work, surfaces that hold up, and a grill placement that doesn't bake you in August heat.
San Marcos sits on spring-fed riverland where drainage and soil composition matter more than in other Hill Country towns. Our thin upland soils don't hold moisture, which is actually your advantage: water runs clean and fast, and your kitchen pad won't settle unevenly like it might in harder clay. We handle the grading and utility coordination ourselves, so you're not chasing separate contractors or waiting weeks for inspections.
Corral Bros builds outdoor kitchens the way a good crew leader thinks through a job: custom layout first, then stone and counter surfaces that match your land and your budget. We schedule no-obligation on-site estimates, usually within 48 hours. Call us at (737) 404-9343 to walk through what's possible on your property.
We're a local, family-built company that treats your San Marcos property like our own — tidy crews, clear pricing, and outdoor kitchens that holds up to Hays County conditions. Available as a one-time project or part of an ongoing plan.
Outdoor kitchen cost ranges widely based on size, the counter and masonry materials, and the appliances you choose, from a simple built-in grill island to a full kitchen with a bar, fridge and storage. We design to your budget and provide a clear, itemized quote.
A Central Texas outdoor kitchen commonly includes a built-in grill, durable stone or masonry counters, storage, and often a bar, side burner or fridge, with shade overhead for summer use. We design the layout around how you cook and entertain.
Our thin upland soils are actually ideal for drainage. We grade the pad, ensure proper slope, and set your foundation so water doesn't pool around posts or under counters. River properties need extra attention to floodplain clearance-we verify that with you during the estimate.
That depends on your grill choice, counter materials, and whether you want a full bar or simple prep space. We give free, honest on-site estimates. We've built everything from straightforward masonry and stainless steel setups to high-end kitchens with multiple zones. Call (737) 404-9343 to get a real number for your space.
Yes. We coordinate with licensed electricians and gas technicians, pull permits if needed, and make sure everything meets code. You don't patch together multiple vendors-we own the whole project from design to final inspection.
A straightforward kitchen usually takes two to four weeks once the design is locked. Larger projects with bar seating or multiple appliance zones run a bit longer. We give you a timeline during the estimate and stick to it.
Yes. Many San Marcos university-town rentals benefit from a kitchen that generates tenant interest and justifies higher rent. We design durable layouts using commercial-grade materials that don't require constant upkeep.
Fall through spring is ideal-you're not working in brutal heat, and rain doesn't wash out your timeline like it does in summer. We start estimates year-round, but scheduling an early spring or fall build means faster completion and better working conditions.
