SAN JOSE, CA / ACCESS Newswire / September 18, 2026 / Fire and Metal, Inc. (formerly Sparkle Grill Cleaning of the Bay Area, LLC), the Bay Area’s trusted name in outdoor appliance cleaning, repair, and warranty service, today announced the launch of Fire and Metal Outdoor Kitchens, the company’s new design-build brand for full-scale outdoor kitchen and outdoor living construction. Operating as a licensed general contractor (CSLB #1147743) and authorized dealer for leading appliance brands such as Kalamazoo, Hestan, Alfresco, Fire Magic, DCS, Coyote, Napoleon, and more. Fire and Metal Outdoor Kitchens will open a showroom and live-use outdoor kitchen demonstration campus in San Jose later this year – featuring more than ten fully functional outdoor kitchens where customers can cook and test the appliances with their families before purchasing them.
For more than 10 years, Fire and Metal has built its reputation grill by grill – earning status as an authorized warranty provider for leading major outdoor appliance brands and completing thousands of laser and steam cleanings, repairs, warranty services, and equipment installations for homeowners throughout Northern California. That hands-on relationship with backyard cooking spaces revealed a clear pattern: customers who trusted Fire and Metal with their grills increasingly wanted the same trusted team to design and build the kitchen and living space around it.
“Our customers kept asking the same question – ‘you’ve been in the backyard, you know how we like to spend time with friends and family, can you build out the rest of the backyard too?’” said Ryan Schellhous, President and Owner of Fire and Metal. “This is a natural next step. We’re taking the precision and expertise we’ve built cleaning and repairing equipment and applying it to full outdoor kitchen and backyard design, construction, and remodeling – amazing appliances, hardscape, concrete, custom cabinetry, gas and electrical, structures, all of it.”
Expanded Services
Under the new Fire and Metal Outdoor Kitchens brand, the company now offers complete design-build services for backyard kitchens and outdoor living spaces, including:
- Fully backyard design, plans, and permitting
- Authorized dealership for major luxury outdoor kitchen appliance brands, with appliance try-before-you-buy, selection expertise, and installation
- Custom outdoor cabinetry, including prefabricated cabinetry systems from Kalamazoo, Urban Bonfire, Stoll, Tru Innovative, and WeatherStrong
- Hardscape, landscape, concrete and masonry work
- Gas and electrical line installation
- Structural elements including pergolas and covered kitchen areas
- Ongoing maintenance, cleaning, and repair – the services that built the company’s reputation
A New Home in San Jose
Fire and Metal Outdoor Kitchens will be headquartered at the company’s new San Jose campus, which combines a 2,000 square foot indoor showroom, 8,500 square foot, live-use outdoor kitchen showspace, warehouse, offices, and a technician service center. Design-build projects will focus on the greater Bay Area, while Fire and Metal’s cleaning, repair, and warranty services continue across the company’s full Northern California service area – from north of Santa Rosa to Carmel and into the Central Valley.
A Foundation Built on Trust
Fire and Metal, Inc. has spent over a decade earning a reputation for precision, safety, and craftsmanship, backed by hundreds of five-star reviews and strong repeat business across the region. That foundation – not a new set of promises – is what customers can expect as the company takes on larger, full-scope backyard design, build, and remodel projects.
“We didn’t want to be another outdoor kitchen company chasing a trend,” Schellhous added. “We wanted to be the same reliable team our customers already know, just able to do more for them. A single place where customers can come to learn about appliances and all other components of an amazing backyard and have it designed, procured, installed, and serviced by the same team.”
