Believe it or not you can save hundreds of dollars by having your grill cleaned and repaired by professionals. But let’s say you need to buy a new grill. Pricing differs based on whether you want a high-end grill with rotisserie, a portable BBQ grill, or something in-between.

Is It Safe to Cook on a Rusty Grill?

February 19, 2020 by admin

Before you know it grilling season will be upon us again. What if your grill has been exposed to harsh weather, has rust, or needs a serious cleaning? Is it safe to cook on a rusty grill? How does your grills design play into cleaning and maintenance? Let’s find out.

Rusty Grills 101

Your grill has to handle a lot of wear and tear. Between grease splatter, food chunks, debris, weather, and high temperature, your grill may have seen much better days. Additionally, whether you grills design is charcoal or gas, a grill left outside will rust and is susceptible to damage from debris and moisture.

The solution?

A thorough grill cleaning will help remove the unwanted rust and clear out debris from each component. Minor rust damage involves a little do-it-yourself elbow grease. Remove and clean the grate with a wire brush. Rinse the grate afterwards. Some grates need complete repair or replacement if the rust does not disappear. Season your grill to prevent rusting.

Many times your grill will need much more than a quick cleaning. Maybe the rust has severely damaged the grill or components do not work properly. You want a safe grill when you cook with your family and friends. A grill covered in dirt and rust does not function properly. No matter the make or model, from Weber to Firemagic, a clean grill will work better and be safer.

A professional inspection will help you see if the grill has any dangerous leaks or needs repair. You might need to replace the grate or other parts. In most cases, a professional cleaning and polish will restore the grill to its original state. Periodic maintenance before the spring will ensure that you can enjoy grilling for years to come.

Repair and Revive Your BBQ Grill

January 17, 2020 by admin

Has your grill been rusting away outside or in your garage? Does repairing a gas grill or charcoal grill seem daunting? Check out these great professional tips to help you restore your old grill.

1. Safety First

Always remember safety when dealing with a gas grill. Disconnect your propane tank. Remove any rocks and the grate. Sometimes repairing a gas grill just involves a good cleaning from a professional to restore functionality.

2. Inspect Burners

Are the burners working? Check them by lighting them. They should burn evenly. If you have any issues, you can replace the burners. They may need a good scraping and cleaning to use.

3. Upgrade

Your grill may need a few upgrades to restore functioning. A cleaning may not be enough. For example, you may have to upgrade the grill. Many cheap grills get worse and worse over time, even after a cleaning. A new stainless steel grate or iron grate may make all the difference. With iron grates, be sure to oil them after each time you use the grill. You may need to replace the ignitor.

4. A Touch of Paint

You want either a professional to repair and paint your grill or choose the right type of paint. You need paint that is used for outdoor grills. This is a special high temperature spray paint. Focus on the outside of your grill. The inside paint job will not matter once you start cooking again.

5. Add Ons

Sure, you might love your grill, but you can add extra features like a rotisserie for a low price. Shop your local grill shop to see what options are available.

Fixing your grill can take a deep professional cleaning. Maybe you need a repair or replacement? Call Ashton BBQ professionals today. We will help you return your grill to brand new! Contact us today. We are happy to help you with our friendly knowledgeable staff.

Repair or Replace? A Quick Grill Guide

August 18, 2019 by admin

The summer might be winding down, but there are still plenty of opportunities to grill with friends and family. But is it time to retire your grill? Or can you refurbish and clean your grill, maybe install custom grill grates, or have it professionally repaired? Here’s a quick grill guide to help you decide if it’s time for a new grill.

Dirty and Grimy Grills

Maybe your grill has seen some better days. Regular maintenance will help your grill last longer. However, not everyone has the time to clean, refurbish, or repair a grill. While regular cleaning after every use, repairs like installing new custom grill grates, or having the grill services will help you enjoy your grill for years to come, how can you know if it’s time to replace the grill?

If you are only dealing with standard grime and dirt, a professional cleaning will make your grill as good as new. Call our professionals today about how we can help you save money by repairing and refurbishing your grill. Our services include a thorough cleaning, checking for leaks, a complete inspection, and even disposal if it’s time to get a new grill.

Signs You Need a New Grill

While most of the time a professional cleaning will take care of any issues, sometimes you do need a brand new grill. Here are a few signs that you need to dispose of your old grill:

Cracked Firebox
Cracked Grates
Cracked Hoses
Unreliable Ignitor
Uneven Flames

Safety Issues

Having a cracked firebox or leaking hoses can present a safety hazard to you and your family. We can check your grill for these safety issues. While some of these fixes can be done, often the cost of the parts can outweigh the value of the grill. For example, cracked grates can cost anywhere from $40 to over $250! Some areas are hard to repair safely, like the ignitor. You will need a professional to come in and repair this type of issue.
