Grill repairs FAQs

A few potential problems can cause your gas grill to stop working:

Burners aren’t properly aligned.
Food debris is clogging the burners.
Hose connections may be blocked.
Burners may not be getting enough gas.
Gas valve is not working properly.

If you’re experiencing any of those problems with your gas grill, hire a local grill repair professional to inspect your grill for issues and implement a plan to resolve them.

Heavy buildup of grease

If your grill is relatively new or under warranty, it’s worth fixing. If the warranty has run out, find the cost of parts (usually a burner or grate that’s rusted out). If the parts cost more than half the price of a new grill, it’s worth buying a new one.
