Side Burner Repair in Houston
We repair DCS side burners built into outdoor cabinets and counters, including ignition, flame and valve problems. We test the burner and its controls, tell you what we find, and give a written price before any repair starts.
Common side burner problems we fix
In the order we see them across Houston homes.

Smell of gas near the burner
A DCS side burner sits in the counter next to the grill and handles pots, sauces and anything that should not go on the grate. It has its own valve, igniter and burner head, and it shares the gas supply with the grill in many outdoor kitchens.
Because the burner is open to the weather, rain, humidity and insects get at it first. Water in the burner ports, a rusted igniter electrode or a spider nest in the air tube are common reasons a side burner stops working.
We start by looking at the burner head and the igniter, then test the valve and the flame. If the problem points to gas supply or a conversion between natural gas and propane, we explain that this goes to a licensed plumber, and we repair the side burner once the supply is right.

Why is my side burner flame weak or yellow?
A yellow or weak flame often means the burner ports are partly blocked or the air mixture is off. Grease, insects and corrosion are common causes. We clean and test the burner, and we check the gas pressure only after the burner itself is ruled out.
My side burner shares gas with the grill. Does that matter?
It can. If the grill works and the side burner does not, the problem is likely at the burner or its valve. If both are weak, the supply may be the issue, and a licensed plumber handles gas line work. We help you tell which it is.
Can you repair an older side burner?
Usually, if the burner housing is sound. We tell you which parts can be had, what the repair involves and when replacing the burner makes more sense. You see the price in writing first.
