"Larry was helpful on the phone with lots of information before he even came over. He helped us to repair our blinds. We needed another part but he explained how we could do it ourselves. Once the part came he did everything he could and got us all set up to finish out a small part of it ourselves. We definitely hire him again as needed."
"Dean listened to my requirements for the deck refurbishing, and proceeded to deliver what I asked for. The deck came out just as I had hoped. The job was well worth the money paid."
"Juan also had to resize the cabinets over the oven before he could install the microwave. The cabinets look great. He also had to redo the exhaust ductwork that is inside the cabinet. We also had some drywall work done in another room at the same time. It is really nice having someone who can do all of this so that we have one person who can do all the work and do it very well."
"Got the job done efficiently, for a great price. Was prompt on scheduling and communication, and the job was done in a clean organized manner. We had some coax wiring hidden and installed and a TV mounted, would definitely hire again!"
"We hired Steve at Cransten to assemble and install new cabinets for our kitchen and the results were amazing! His attention to detail, quality workmanship and professionalism greatly exceeded our expectations. We were so happy with Steve’s work that we immediately booked him to install additional cabinets in our dining room."
"I called these gentleman to do a small job and they did such a wonderful job I called them back again. They do excellent work they are fair in what they charge for their work and they are very pleasant. They are honest and didnâ t push to do things that werenâ t needed. It was a pleasure having to have honest hard working contractors"
No. Placing a built-in grill against the house is discouraged due to safety concerns. Building codes and regulations often require a minimum distance (typically 10 feet or more) between a gas grill and any combustible structure, including a house. Placing a grill too close poses a fire hazard and risks damage to the siding or structure, potentially leading to carbon monoxide buildup. It's essential to consult local building codes, follow manufacturer guidelines, and prioritize safety by positioning the grill at a safe distance, ideally in a well-ventilated outdoor kitchen or designated grill area.
Local codes often mandate specific fittings, permits, and vent considerations for permitted function and safety, which are enforced by professionals.
Built-in gas grills typically have a life span of 10 to 15 years. However, their longevity can vary based on quality, usage frequency, climate conditions, and maintenance routines. High-quality models made from durable materials tend to last longer. Additionally, regular cleaning, covering the grill when not in use, and conducting routine maintenance tasks such as cleaning burners and replacing worn-out parts can extend its life. A well-maintained built-in gas grill can provide excellent performance and memorable cooking experiences for a decade or more, making it a worthwhile investment for outdoor cooking enthusiasts.
Safety steps include proper vent installation, connector tightness, and leak testing. A safe environment must be maintained throughout.
While it’s possible to repair minor grill issues like replacing a burner, more serious issues are clear indicators that you need to replace the entire unit. A few signs that your gas grill may be at the end of its life span and it’s time to consider replacing it include:
Rusty or cracked firebox
Weak, yellow, or uneven flames
Flaking, cracking grates
Leaking or cracked propane hoses
Failing igniter
Heavy buildup of grease
