"Alive maintenance was prompt, professional, and affordable. I was embarrassed by the condition I allowed them to get to. Alive's employee never made me feel like I had been neglectful, I really appreciated that."
"Shane was very prompt. He did what was asked of him, I had a lawn that I was unable to mow and it got wild. The grass was knee high, I would hire him again"
"Chris and his son worked together efficiently and carefully in the hanging of two decorative mirrors and a Turkish-style light fixture. I‘d always heard you should measure twice and cut once; Chris checked measurements and level at least three times with each task! The work was done quickly, neatly and professionally, with Chris explaining the work and his reasoning, as he went along. Most importantly, for a woman who lives alone, I felt comfortable and safe while Chris and his son were in my home. I would gladly recommend Green Earth Property Maintenance and will call on them for future projects."
"The handyman I hired was the owner and came from Sheboygan to New Berlin. Showed up on agreed day and time. His hourly rate was by far the best I found. He did all the work in a timely manner even though I didn't have enough material to complete the job but got the main part I couldn't do done. Very little waste of materials and he saved me the smaller cut pieces I could use for trim pieces. I would definitely hire him again!"
The cost of a gas grill burner ranges from $10 to $100 or more, depending on the brand. If you’re replacing one burner, consider replacing all the burners simultaneously. Although it will cost more upfront, it will save you the hassle of replacing a burner every few months, and your grill will cook more evenly and efficiently.
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.
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
Appliances typically connected to a gas line include gas stoves, water heaters, furnaces, and gas fireplaces. Essentially, any appliance in your home that uses gas needs to be connected to a gas line, which connects your home with the main gas line owned and operated by your gas company.
On average, a gas grill can last from five to 15 years. The exact lifespan depends on several factors, including the brand and quality of the grill, frequency of use, and whether the gas line is buried or above ground. With proper maintenance and care, such as regular deep cleanings to remove food, grease, and carbon deposits, a grill's life can be extended. Protecting the grill from the elements with a cover can also prevent rust and reduce the need for repairs. Most grill manufacturers also offer extended warranties, which vary in coverage and terms.
