Custom outdoor kitchens give you more reasons to enjoy your backyard in Chadds Ford, Pennsylvania, with a dedicated place to cook, serve drinks, entertain guests, and spend more time together outside. Dutchies Stoneworks & Outdoor Living designs and builds outdoor kitchens in Chadds Ford, PA that pair everyday convenience with fine stonework that complements your home and landscape.
Natural stone brings distinctive texture, character, and lasting durability to your backyard setting. Thoughtful material selection can connect the cooking area with an existing patio, your home’s architecture, and the surrounding landscape for a cohesive appearance. If another material better suits your vision, we bring the same attention to detail and quality standards to every installation.
Stone masonry is at the heart of Dutchies. Owner Dave “Dutchie” Fisher is a third-generation stonemason, and that background influences the care we bring to material selection, construction, and the details that give each project its finished character.
You receive that same level of care throughout your experience. We listen to how you want to use your backyard, guide you through materials and features, and communicate clearly as work progresses. Our hospitality-inspired approach extends to the jobsite, where crews respect your home, property, and neighbors.
We have a passion for creating a positive experience and a lasting landscape—and we appreciate it when our clients notice our commitment to our craft and attention to detail. Visit our Testimonials page to learn more about what it is like to work with us.

We first strive to ensure we are the right fit for your project. If so, we proceed with a process that prioritizes efficiency, transparency, and client satisfaction:
Fill out our contact form to tell us more about your vision and landscaping needs. You will have the opportunity to schedule a 15-minute call at your convenience, and we will send you more information so you can prepare for our conversation. Check out our budgeting guide to get a sense of what is possible with your investment.
Discuss your options for plants and hardscaping materials, placement of features, and budget considerations with our Project Strategist. This is a great time to ask questions so you can feel confident in your decision to proceed with us.
At your convenience, you will meet with someone from our team for an hour to review your outdoor space. We will take pictures and measurements and offer recommendations based on our experience and your ideas.
Typically within one week of your onsite consultation (or within two weeks for larger projects), we will meet with you on your property to review the 2D renderings, making it easier for you to visualize the completed project. 3D renderings are also available for an additional cost. At this meeting we will discuss a price range for your complete landscape.
For larger projects, we meet again to review and finalize the design and help you make your material selections. You will approve every detail, and we will make any necessary revisions to ensure the plan meets your needs and expectations.
When you are thrilled with your design, you will receive a detailed quote, sign the agreement, and make a deposit. We will review your payment plan with you so you know what to expect as we proceed, and your project will be added to our construction calendar.
Two weeks before we start the installation, you will meet your Project Manager and crew leader. You can expect the team to work with respect for your property and the entire neighborhood, and they will leave the site clean each day. Your Project Manager will be your primary point of contact, and you are welcome to reach out at any point with questions and concerns.
You are invited to take a walk with us through the finished project to make sure you are satisfied with every detail. We will share all the details of the manufacturer’s warranties on your hardscaping and the five-year warranty on our craftsmanship. This is also when we will collect your final payment.
Like the landscape itself, we are with you for the long haul. After one year, we will return to make sure the work is holding up and see if you have any questions or concerns.
Inspired designs. Expert construction. No matter what you envision for your outdoor space, our team can transform those ideas into a lasting landscape with a range of services and a meticulous approach.
