It’s a great question! After all… Installing your patio will factor into your overall outdoor kitchen budget. Of course, there isn’t an exact science to calculate cost. Between labor costs, materials, and the size of your patio… The price range varies widely. However, it is possible to get a ballpark estimate in a few ways.

And while we can’t estimate the exact labor costs… We can give you an idea of how much popular materials cost. Some of the most popular outdoor kitchen patio materials are concrete, pavers, bluestone and flagstone. Concrete will cost anywhere from $8-$20 per square foot. Pavers will sit around $15-$35 per square foot. Bluestone will range from $20-$40 per square foot. And finally, flagstone will cost you around $15-$30 per square foot.

As you can see… The materials you choose will significantly affect the final price tag! If you want a more budget-friendly outdoor kitchen patio… Concrete may be the material of choice for you!
