Grill repair in Memorial.

Memorial's tall pines drop needles onto every lid and into every grease tray, and squirrels and rats living in the canopy find a covered grill a snug place to nest, so needles and nests are cleared before the igniter or valves are judged.

What Memorial does
to a grill.

Memorial runs along Buffalo Bayou west of Downtown, with Barker Reservoir on its west side and the Memorial Villages on its east.

Its forested neighborhoods mix residential styles, mid-century modern above all, and most of Memorial Bend's roughly 350 houses date from the late 1950s and early 1960s.

Terry Hershey Park, a linear park straddling Buffalo Bayou between Barker Reservoir and Beltway 8, borders the western two-thirds of Memorial to the south.

For a Memorial tenant in an apartment building without sprinklers, Houston's fire code allows only charcoal pits and tabletop propane grills with cylinders of 2.5 pounds or less on a patio or balcony.

Family houses

Suburban grills used for weekly family dinners wear their igniters and grates steadily, and grass clippings and leaves drift into the grease tray, which can turn a routine flare-up into a lasting grease fire if the tray is left full.

Pool decks and cookouts

A grill built into a counter relies on vents below it to let heat and any stray gas escape, and on these patios a grill whose knobs or control panel run hot is checked for blocked vents as well as for a problem in the grill itself.

A second grill or smoker

A household running a gas grill and a pellet grill side by side sometimes plugs the pellet grill into an outlet shared with lights or a pump, and a controller that resets mid-cook is traced to that shared outlet before anyone suspects the board.

When a grill
cannot wait in Memorial.

In Memorial as anywhere, these four put the people at the grill in danger and mean the gas stays closed until we come: a gas smell at the grill, the hose or the tank, a grease fire that keeps burning with the knobs down, flame curling out behind the control panel, or a knob that turns to off while the burner stays lit.
