"Rob and his crew tore down and removed a 25 year old lumber retaining wall and replaced it with fayblock. The wall they built was over 100 feet long and 4 feet tall. Did all the necessary work to install the wall and then regraded and reseeded when they were finished. It was a big project and they did a great job!"

"GREAT contractor! Jon and his crew did a really nice job on our projects. He made very good suggestions, he and Carmen were very communicative from the initial contact, they were prompt once the job started, did high quality work, left the site super clean, and were more than fair priced. Definitely will call them again for our outdoor living needs!! Thanks guys!"

"I would highly recommend anybody to consider Bellus Terra for any landscaping, hardscaping and outdoor maintenance of any kind to their homes, buildings and other environments that would require these services. Bellus Terra built us an outdoor pavilion with a beautiful fireplace. They were terrific in helping us create the design, structure, orientation to the house, size and all aesthetic qualities. The building experience was terrific as all expectations were met or exceeded. Stuart takes a lot of pride in what he contracts to do, very experienced, easy to work with and will over communicate to ensure a great experience. If you wind up working with Belle Terra, you will never be disappointed."

"Jonathan contacted me promptly, and stayed in touch every step of the way. My project was complicated -- I had a number of years worth of water damage from a poorly done roof job that resulted in a variety of issues....siding required replacement, sub-flooring damage. The team took a very systematic, thoughtful, and efficient approach to figuring out the work that needed to be done, and then executing it beautifully! I am very satisfied with their work."

"We love our backyard now! West Wall did an amazing job with our outdoor fireplace, pavers, and sitting area. They were well organized, professional and timely with their installation. We absolutely loved our design and the 3D rendering that Brian created for us prior to starting our project. I would defiantly use their services again!"

"Design Craft helped me out with a backyard project. They installed new gravel fire pit area and paver dinning area. They were quick and professional and even leveled out part of my yard they weren't working on for more effective draining at no extra cost! Highly recommend."

"It went really well. Javier was very responsive. He designed a new drainage solution from scratch in an area that gets an enormous amount of run off. The paver installation looks great and is installed using professional approach and materials."

"I needed a complete overhaul of my front and backyard, both of which were filled with too-mature plants and weeds galore. The front yard between the circular driveway and the street contained a very large hodgepodge "garden" which may have been lovingly tended to by previous owners, but was neglected and overgrown. The backyard had an unusable slope, uneven ground and a ton of weeds and random plants. Randy gave me a reasonable quote to tear everything out, level the backyard and install a retaining wall, and sod both the front and back yards. Unfortunately, rain delayed our start by several weeks, but once it was clear enough to start, Randy and his crew jumped right in clearing everything out with a Bobcat and digging out the huge bushes in the front. In a matter of a few days, the retaining wall in the backyard was built and the yard was leveled and graded for optimum drainage. The sod arrived a day or two later and I had a brand new yard! In a matter of a week, the landscaping in the front and back of my 1/3 acre lot was completely overhauled and it looks AMAZING. Neighbors are constantly stopping to comment on how incredible it looks. I was very impressed with Randy's punctuality and professionalism through the whole project, and he even provided documentation for me to submit for HOA approval of the project before starting. He's a great, honest guy, and his crew works really hard and they do a great job. I highly recommend Alliance Landscaping for a large project like mine."

FAQs for outdoor kitchen building service projects in Durham, NC

Building your own pizza oven can be a cost-effective option if you already possess the necessary firebricks or materials and have the skills to complete the project. When you have the required supplies on hand, you save on material costs and labor fees. However, if you need to source every component, a pre-made kit may not deliver the same savings.

Fire bricks are engineered to withstand the high temperatures generated inside a pizza oven, protecting the structure from cracking or spalling. Standard bricks can fail under intense heat, potentially damaging the oven and creating safety risks. By using true fire-rated bricks, homeowners maintain consistent cooking temperatures, preserve the oven’s structural integrity, and reduce the likelihood of costly repairs. The modest increase in material cost is offset by longer service life and safer operation.

An optimal pizza oven installation positions the opening exactly between 36 and 48 inches above the ground to guarantee clear visibility and safe, comfortable access. This height optimizes heat distribution and ergonomic use. In addition, dome height can vary: shorter domes produce the signature soft, charred crust of Neapolitan pies, whereas taller domes are ideal for generating the robust baking environment required for New York–style pizzas.
