Good to Know
> 🎨 **Parts wearing out?** It's normal for burners and other components to wear out eventually, especially in coastal areas. Stainless steel lasts longer but costs more. Sometimes it's worth upgrading parts rather than replacing like-for-like. **Charcoal BBQs too?** Yes - the service is simpler (no gas to check) but I'll still deep clean it, check for rust, make sure vents operate properly, and assess the grate condition. They need maintenance too. **Cover your BBQ?** If you haven't been using a cover, start now. Makes a massive difference to how long components last. A decent waterproof cover costs £20-30 and saves you hundreds in replacement parts. **Exeter's coastal air** accelerates corrosion on BBQs. If you're near the coast (Exmouth, Dawlish direction), check your BBQ over carefully each spring. Salt air is brutal on metal components, especially burners and the frame.
Frequently Asked Questions about BBQ spring service in Dawlish
What's the difference between spring service and season setup?
Spring service is more thorough. It includes a deeper clean of the grates and interior, checking all components properly, and servicing parts that might need attention. Season setup is quicker - just getting it functional after winter. Spring service is what you want if it hasn't been touched in ages.
Will you take the BBQ apart to clean it?
I'll remove what needs removing - grates, burner covers, sometimes burners themselves - to clean properly and check for issues. But I won't strip it down completely unless there's a specific problem. The goal is thorough cleaning and servicing, not a complete rebuild.
How often should I get a spring service?
Once a year is plenty for most people - just before summer. If you use your BBQ year-round or it lives in a really exposed spot, you might want it twice a year. But for typical use (summer only, covered in winter), annual spring service keeps it in good nick.
Can you do it at my place or do I bring the BBQ to you?
I come to you - much easier than hauling a BBQ around. I'll bring what I need to service it on your patio or in your garden. Only thing I might need from you is access to water.
What if you find something that needs replacing?
I'll let you know what's needed and give you options. Small parts like ignition batteries or hose clips I can usually sort there and then. Bigger items like burners or regulators, you might want to source yourself or I can pick them up and come back to fit them.
