Outdoor Granite BBQ Countertops in San Diego, CA
Project Backstory
The project involved Rock-It Surfaces providing a solution for an outdoor BBQ area in San Diego, where the customer specifically required a counter surface that could withstand external weather conditions. The design challenge centered on selecting a material that was not only durable and suitable for outdoor use but also visually appealing, complementing the intended aesthetic of the outdoor cooking space.
To meet these requirements, Rock-It Surfaces recommended and installed Azul Celeste granite with a leather finish for the 56 square feet of counter area. This specific material was chosen because its composition is inherently durable and well-suited for outdoor environments. Furthermore, the Azul Celeste granite provided the desired color palette, featuring warm browns and greys accented with a hint of blue, which satisfied the customer’s aesthetic preference while ensuring longevity in the San Diego climate.

Frequently Asked Questions
Find answers to the most common questions about our granite countertops here.
Yes. Granite is a natural stone known for its strength and durability, which makes it well suited for outdoor applications. Certain granite colors and finishes perform especially well outside when properly fabricated and installed, even in climates exposed to sun, heat, and changing weather conditions.
Granite is one of the hardest natural stone countertop materials and resists scratches from everyday use. While it is very durable, strong impacts or heavy objects hitting edges or corners can cause chips. Professional fabrication and installation help minimize this risk.
Granite is relatively low maintenance compared to many natural stones. Routine cleaning with mild soap and water is typically all that’s needed to keep it looking its best. A fabricator can provide guidance on care recommendations specific to the granite selected and how it’s used.
What our Customers are Saying
"This is the second time we have used Rock-It Surfaces for new countertops and this company does not disappoint. We were happy with the process from the beginning selection (many wonderful choices) to the final installation. The attention to detail and quality of the work was outstanding. Also, the Quartz extra-large slab we chose resulted in no visible seams which was really surprising to us. They installers were professional and extremely meticulous in their work. Rock-it installed our new countertops in 2 bathrooms and our kitchen in one day and we are thrilled with the results. We highly recommend Rock-It surfaces."

"As an interior designer, I went to several places to find stone for our own countertop remodel. I decided to go with Rock-It as they not only had the stone we wanted but also do their own fabrication and install which is amazing and much more cost effective. It also helps to go to a one stop shop that provides great customer service. The install was smooth and Rock It was great to work with as I asked for a few out of the ordinary details in which they delivered with a smile!! Highly recommend!"
