Chaps,
I know a lot of us are loving the whole pizza thingy and my original thread is still going strong.
Anyway after several years of use my old trusty oven was showing big structural issues so at Christmas I thought I would look at a new lighter weight oven and re configuration of the whole prep area.
I considered brick built, large oak frame but after looking online and doing some work I settled for light weight steel for the main frame. Again reviewing cladding options and wanting to keep it hygienic and maintenance free I have opted for cement based cladding board for the front and probably stainless elsewhere.
Granite was my obvious choice for worktops although trumpy, but I have a friendly supplier who has done me a deal on some stock, I was not fussed about colour.
So, a couple of weeks in and it is slowly coming together........ Of course happy to share any info to anyone considering a similar project this year. The pics..........

Andy
Cheers chaps. Busy the next couple of weeks and then pressing on, the oven is arriving in 3 weeks it’s en-route from Italy.
Let me get it up and running Andy, then we ought to have an east coast pizza GTG. Trust all is well pal.

Hi,
I'm very interested to see the progess on this. However, I am really inpressed with your structure/shelter.
Can I please where it came from or was it a customer build? If so, where did you get it from/ have it designed?? I'd really likke something similar for my BBQ/Smoker set up
Many Thanks
John
Thank you.Originally Posted by johnboy9876
All my own work John, with some assistant to put together. Happy to share dimensions and build info.
Paul
Is it a Valoriani? Friend who bakes great pizzas got one installed and it is semiprofessional allright
What a setup!
Was going to say fingers crossed for a hood summer, but actually it looks like you’ve got year round pizza making covered there - incredible stuff - enjoy!
What about the match mate???
All good?
Paul
What a game!! First one I’ve managed to get a ticket to all season, feel like I got a season’s worth of entertainment in a single match though!
What a match to pick Henry. I have spoken to serval pals who went down and yes, the game of the season..
Paul
Hi Paul,
It looks amazing, you must be very tallented with tools and woodwork!
If you wouldn't mind sharing the information, I'd be very grateful
John
The AS-WAS looks seriously good to me. Can't wait to see what the TO-BE ends up like.
Best Regards - Peter
I'd hate to be with you when you're on your own.
Hiya Buddy,
No, its the 60 x 60 Clementi Family that I have in-coming.
Trusting all is well.
Paul
Perfect day for finally cracking in again.
Oven was delivered Thursday and real touch and go if it was leaving Italy.
It’s not in the exact position as I am knocking a 30mm box stainless steel frame for it to sit on.
Right on with the cladding
Flue outlet seems mighty close to the roof structure........
It’s gonna go through the roof son once in frame made and in the exact position 👍🏼👍🏼
Cladding shot
The kids and I will be there next weekend Paul…. Hope you’re ok with that? You did promise after all!
Grace and Theo say hi x
Looks like the oven in my mates mrs pizza trailer, does it use timber to burn?
Produces lots of pizzas in no time at all.
Mate,
Get this shite out of the way and you and the fam can enjoy a long weekend at pitch Towers to explore Suffolk.
Hugs to the kids and hope they are all well, bugger this year for Grace.
Keep safe mate, that beer at The Rooftop seems a lifetime away.
x
Was just thinking about that…. We had a cuddle and everything! Literally the next weekend everything changed…
Grace is fine - she got into all her top 3 choices for fine art…! So, she’s totally happy!
I’ll give you a shout and we’ll have a virtual beer x
Sorry to thread hijack, but would this be of use to anyone that doesn't have the setups shown in the thread?

Bit more cladding and dry run with the granite.
That’s it until next weekend
Pitch

Stainless splash backs and flue through the roof and done, well hopefully next weekend
Pitch
uploading pictures
Looking good!
Well, that’s decided then;
Next TZ-GTG at the “Pitch Pizzeria”
Spot on Paul!
This looks amazing Paul. I have massive pizza-prep-area envy. Mine is a side in the kitchen.
Suffolk you say? I’m in Bury St Edmunds. I’ll bring the buns.....
;o)
Cheers chaps and it really is a simple and pretty cost effect build.
GTG - yep Jason, lets do it, nice little blat up the dirty dozen for you..
Pitch
Look forward to it mate.
Have a great Easter, enjoy your Pizzas and stay safe.
Jason
Flue delivered yesterday, couple of hours last night and job done.
Just splash backs and we are there. That aside the fire up is very very soon
Pitch
Absolutely fabulous!
Thanks guys, appreciated.
You are quite right Tony, I cringe when I see prices down south, how the heck do youngsters get started.
Just finished dry fitting of the granite worktops and stainless splash backs this evening. Very pleased.
Paul
Looks great, well done on realising your vision.
On a lesser note my Koda 16 is due for delivery tmrw, wish I had the space for a full outdoor set up like yours!
YES!!!!!! I never thought I would see the day Matt. Lol.
You will have some fantastic fun with it mate, from knocking dough up to the cooking and the smiles on friends and family faces. The nine years you have been talking about it will all makes sense 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Can’t wait to see and hear all about it.
Pitch
Hi Paul,
Really enjoying seeing the progress on your re-build. It all looks amazing, I especially like the cupboards and worktops that you have.
I start digging out my new base on Saturday and then it's decision time on Gazebo build and what to get to go in it. Your choice
of pizza oven has started to sway me towards that and away from the smoker I had planned. I already have a gas grill for speed and convenience, but my family
love Pizza too!
Good luck with the finishing off
John
Many thanks John, it has been a lovely little project to work on. Happy to share any info required.

Pitch
Nearly there.......
Worktops and splash backs dry fitted last evening, plan for the weekend is electrics, you will see the holes for the sockets and sealing joints.
I am hoping this evening after a run I will have the first fire up.
Paul

That looks amazing, very well done.

Are you going to have a Consumer Unit (or something) at the point of entry to the Pizzeria/Gazebo so you can terminate all electrics within with the flip of a switch?
Yes, there was SWA laid to the area from the 3-phase supply in our garage (switched and isolated there) with a CU and IP66 rated outlets which were fitted when we build the shelter six years ago, there is lighting and heating out there also.
I will use Flexi conduit to run the twin and earth in inside the units themselves.
Pitch
Really impressive! I'm still on a BBC pizza recipe in kitchen oven using a pizza steel. Think I need to up my pizza game!
Who did the build? what heat have you got in there? nonetheless I all looks mighty impressive.
Many thanks buddy, it is my own design and build, in a previous life I was a carpenter, a lot less stressful.... Regards heat I have some infrared heaters mouthed at high level.
Pitch
The least impressive photo in your thread, but no turning back now!
Just need to find all the dough recipes I have been saving & work out which to do first over the weekend!
I only have fast action dried yeast but assume that is in the pizza app I downloaded and never used!!
Excited does not come close.
It’s looking amazing Paul - how many of us can you accommodate to the grand opening? I reckon you’ll be cooking for at least 100 of us :-)
Yup. Just this.
Fantastic pics. I would love to do this in the garden one day...
