Commercial Grill Repair
A commercial grill that goes down mid-service stops the entire line, and every steak, burger and grilled order waits with it. Wilson & Myers provides commercial grill repair across Denver Metro for restaurants, steakhouses, diners, bars, hotels and catering kitchens. Our insured technicians service gas and electric charbroilers, griddles and flat tops, broilers and salamanders, and we check the ignition, burners, gas valve and thermostat before recommending any part.
Every repair carries a 100-day labor warranty, and we take service calls seven days a week with fast response, because a grill station can’t sit idle for long.
Common Commercial Grill Problems We Fix
Charbroiler Not Lighting
This is the most common charbroiler call we get. On electronic ignition models, a cracked or carbon-fouled igniter electrode is almost always the cause: grease builds up on the electrode tip and prevents the spark from jumping to the burner. Cleaning resolves mild cases. A failed igniter module requires replacement.
On standing pilot models, a pilot that won’t stay lit almost always means a failed thermocouple that doesn’t sense the flame and holds the gas valve closed. If it still won’t ignite after the electrode is cleaned, look for a module or module wiring fault. Igniter repair is a routine fix on all major brands across Denver Metro Area.
Commercial Griddle Not Heating
When a commercial griddle reaches temperature slowly or won’t heat at all, a failed thermostat is the most common cause. It stops the heat call before the gas valve opens or before the electric elements engage. A failed gas valve on gas models receives the signal but doesn’t open.
On electric griddles, a burned-out heating element cuts the circuit entirely. Uneven heat across the surface points to a partially failed thermostat, a burner orifice blocked by grease deposits, or a worn griddle plate that no longer distributes heat uniformly. Thermostat repair is our most frequent flat-top service call across Denver Metro Area.
Commercial Griddle Not Heating Evenly
Uneven heat across the griddle plate creates cold spots that undercook food and hot spots that burn it. The most common causes are a single failed burner orifice restricting gas flow to one zone, a thermostat that is calibrated inconsistently across its range, or a warped griddle plate from years of thermal cycling. On electric models, a single failed heating element produces the same result. Regular cleaning of burner orifices prevents most uneven heating calls on gas flat-top grills.
Commercial Grill Burner Repair
Individual burner failures on charbroilers and griddles are among the most common commercial grill repair calls. A burner that won’t light despite a working igniter almost always has a blocked burner orifice: grease and carbon deposits restrict gas flow until the burner won’t sustain a flame. A burner that lights but produces a weak or uneven flame is partially blocked.
A full burner repair involves removing, cleaning, and testing each orifice, then replacing any that are damaged beyond cleaning. In high-volume kitchens, this is a quarterly maintenance item rather than an emergency repair.
Broiler and Salamander Repair
Broiler and salamander calls most commonly involve a failed igniter, a blocked burner, or a faulty thermostat that prevents the broiler from reaching operating temperature. Salamanders run at extremely high temperatures and experience accelerated component wear compared to standard broilers. An infrared broiler that produces no heat typically has a failed infrared emitter or a faulty gas valve.
A salamander that lights but doesn’t reach full temperature usually has a blocked burner or a partially closed gas valve. Both are routine repairs on most commercial brands across Denver Metro Area. Book online to schedule service.
Gas Valve and Pilot Assembly Repair
A faulty gas valve is one of the most serious commercial gas grill repair calls. Symptoms include burners that won’t light despite a working igniter, inconsistent gas pressure across the cooking surface, or a unit that lights intermittently. On standing pilot models, a pilot assembly that lights but won’t stay on after releasing the knob confirms a failed thermocouple. Gas valve and pilot work belongs with insured technicians experienced with commercial gas equipment, and that is how Wilson & Myers handles every gas component repair across Denver Metro Area.
Commercial Charbroiler Thermostat and Temperature Issues
A charbroiler that runs too hot or too cool affects food quality and increases fuel costs. On gas charbroilers, a miscalibrated or failed thermostat prevents the gas valve from modulating correctly. On electric models, a faulty temperature sensor feeds incorrect data to the control board.
Griddle and charbroiler thermostat replacements are routine fixes on most major commercial brands. Regular calibration checks on high-use units prevent most temperature drift issues before they affect service.

Ryan was great with my dryer repair. He complete the task in less than 1 hr and was great with responding quickly! Thank you.
Isabella RiccaThey responded very quickly to my call and arrived timely (appreciated the text that they were on the way & when they arrived). They were very nice and explained everything that they found wrong with my dryer and walked me through the process of how they would repair the issues prior to repairing it. Would recommend!
AvaTechnician arrived on time and was courteous and professional in their explanation. I felt comfortable with their recommendations. Appreciate the level of service from this small company
Isabella KlaimyHad our washing machine break mid-cycle on a Sunday. Within a few minutes of reaching out to them, the team at Wilson and Myers had contacted me with available times including that very evening, no additional fees for a weekend. The tech that arrived was really friendly and professional and got the job done quickly and below the amount I had prepared myself to pay. Will definitely use again if needed!
