ChefGarageFix
ChefGarageFix transforms ordinary garages into raw, creative culinary studios for food lovers, aspiring chefs, and local makers. These industrial-style kitchen-reno projects combine open-plan layouts, repurposed tools, and chef-crafted stations into gritty yet stylish spaces where passion meets flame. Whether you're hosting a supper club, filming food content, or just cooking with friends, our chef-garage concepts turn the act of making food into a bold, hands-on experience.
Who are we
At ChefGarageFix, we believe great food doesn’t need polished countertops—it needs soul, flame, and a space to experiment. We design and retrofit garages into fully functional culinary workspaces with a raw, industrial edge. Inspired by street food, DIY culture, and maker ethics, each ChefGarage blends the character of the garage with the efficiency of a pro kitchen.
From repurposed metal benches and vintage tool racks reimagined for spice jars, to concrete floors designed for heavy-duty use, our conversions are as functional as they are atmospheric. Whether you're a chef seeking a personal lab, a content creator needing a bold backdrop, or a food lover dreaming of your own edgy test kitchen—we build the playground for your culinary vision.
We also offer chef collaboration packages, mobile setups, and custom finishing touches to keep the garage spirit alive and sizzling.

Garage-Based Culinary InnovationWe specialize in converting garages into working culinary spaces that combine grit, fire, and flair. The raw bones of a garage—cement, steel, open ventilation—become the foundation for high-performance cooking with a streetwise soul. - Chef-Centric LayoutsEach space is designed with culinary flow in mind: knife zones, prep tables, smoker stations, and built-in racks for tools. We work with chefs and cooking enthusiasts to fine-tune ergonomics, lighting, and ventilation to match real-life cooking rhythms.
- Creative Industrial AestheticForget sterile white kitchens—our builds feature weathered wood, exposed beams, enamel signage, and metal accents. The look is intentionally raw but hyper-stylish, ideal for pop-up events, filming, or creative hosting.
- Multi-Function CapabilitiesChefGarage spaces are not just for cooking. They're perfect for private tastings, content shoots, workshops, and experimental food labs. We build in seating, camera-ready angles, and utility hooks for adaptable use.
- Sustainable Repurposing ApproachWe use recycled materials wherever possible—reclaimed counters, repurposed bike parts for handles, salvaged shelving. It’s an upcycled ethos that honors both the environment and the garage's history.
- Support from Concept to FlameFrom first sketch to final seasoning, our team supports every step: design, equipment sourcing, ventilation solutions, and chef consultation. We offer post-install help, tuning, and culinary startup resources to launch your garage-kitchen journey.
What can we do
Full Garage-to-Kitchen Conversions
We handle complete garage renovations into culinary spaces, including architectural planning, zoning checks, appliance integration, plumbing, and fire-safe ventilation. Each space is custom-built to match your cooking style—grill-heavy, baking-focused, fermentation-based, or fully vegan. We transform garages into creative command centers with soul.
Chef Collaboration & Customization
We partner with chefs, home cooks, and culinary content creators to co-design garage kitchens with signature touches: spice walls, fire pits, sous-vide stations, fermenting chambers, or even beer-brewing corners. This service includes 3D mockups, layout prototyping, and testing for heat and workflow efficiency.
Pop-Up & Mobile Setup Services
For those looking to go temporary or modular, we offer mobile garage-style kitchen units for festivals, markets, or content tours. These can be set up in parking lots or indoor venues and disassembled with minimal effort—while still packing the full ChefGarage vibe.
Industrial Decor & Styling Packages
We provide interior kits with vintage industrial elements: retro bulbs, cast-iron wall hooks, neon signs, metal pegboards, and enamelware storage. You can choose themed styles like "Urban Butcher," "Retro Smoker Lab," or "Modern Punk Cantina" to bring atmosphere to every session.
Post-Build Support & Upgrades
We stay with you after the build. Our ongoing services include equipment tuning, burner replacement, wear-and-tear fixes, grease management systems, and appliance upgrades. We also help with lighting enhancement or heat-resistance coatings to keep your space durable and safe.
Content Studio Enhancements
If your garage kitchen is also your filming zone, we offer lighting rigs, softbox setups, soundproofing, and camera rail installation. Whether you're recording reels, livestreaming cookalongs, or building a food brand, we make your space production-ready with minimal visual interference and full aesthetic immersion.
