Great customer experience!

We purchased an new natural gas BBQ and needed the gas fitting changed. I used Homestars to zero in on the best company. It was down to 2 but Barbeque Pro was the most friendly, responsive and best price. The staff was very professional and clearly communicated what needed to be done and cost. Within 24 hours I had the technician at my house to install the new gas fitting. Akin(the technician), was extremely professional, friendly and quick with the job. I am very glad I chose them to do the job.

BBQ Cleaning

As always the job was done properly. When they were finished the BBQ looked like new and believe me, what they had to work with was an absolute mess. Excellent work. I would not hesitate to recommend them (and in fact, I have, a few times).

My jaw literally dropped when I opened the lid. Feels like a brand new BBQ!

I knew these guys did good work but I was not expecting it to look so shiny and spotless because I didn't think that level of clean was even possible! The BBQ has truly been restored to what it looked like when it came out of the factory. Seriously wow. Every BBQ needs this once a year. There's no question I'm doing this every year from now on.

BBQ Cleaning and Repair

Four years ago, I hired this company to help clean and restore a BBQ that came with the house as I didn't have the time to tinker and clean it myself. The first sign of suspicion for this company was that they take payment for the service before the service is performed (which was expensive, nearly $400 for the service). Usually, a great company will only charge a customer once the customer is satisfied with the work and these great companies have ways of collecting from deadbeat customers after the service is performed. Either way, I should have been tipped off by their pre-service payment and cancelled the service. However, we proceed with the service call based on the reviews. They were barely there for an hour and left the BBQ all scratched up. The BBQ needed a list of parts which they were only able to determine a quarter of the list of parts needed because they didn't take the time to thoroughly inspect and take it apart to find what was exactly needed. To boot, they wanted another $350+tax to install the parts (and they would have missed some key parts because of their lack of thoroughness, which would have resulted in longer delays, and my guess is further service charges). If I proceeded with this company any further, it would have left me, at least, nearly $800 in the hole (plus cost of parts) for subpar service. This year, I ended up taking the time to take apart the BBQ (which took about an hour) to find out what parts I needed to buy. In that hour, I further cleaned the BBQ, which should have been done by this company if they went beyond cleaning the surface areas, as well as finding out the exact parts that I needed. The parts came in this week, and it took another hour to complete the install. So, for 2 hours worth or work, this company is charging $700 + taxes. If you have the time, do it yourself. It's easier than you think and avoid companies like this. The job was never completed and a refund was never offered.

Hi Dan,

Thank you for taking the time to express your concerns about the company. However, some of your statements are simply untrue. It is not, and has never been our policy to collect payment for any BBQ cleaning appointment prior to its completion. We collect a credit card number to secure the appointment and only process the payment once the job has been completed. All of our pricing is based on the make and model of BBQ you have, and this is outlined in the confirmation email that is sent after booking.

We are extremely willing and receptive to resolving any issues that are brought forth to the company. As such, we sent back a technician (free of charge) to further assess the BBQ for a complete list of parts that were required. We advised you to contact Viking directly, as we do not order select parts that your BBQ needed, and offered to return for another visit for the installation. The quoted installation fee was based on the extensive list of parts that were to be installed by a specialized TSSA Licensed Gas Technician on a high-end BBQ, such as Viking.

We are proud of the skill and professionalism of our technicians and the employees who work tirelessly to provide top customer satisfaction. It is disappointing that we were not provided with a fair opportunity to resolve these issues as it has taken over four years for your concerns to be brought to light. We want to extend the offer to discuss any concerns or questions that you may still have from this job, and are happy to take your call anytime. Please contact the office at 416-925-9585, or email help@barbequepro.com if you require any further assistance.

Gas Line Installation

I contacted Barbeque Pro to have a new gas line installed to hook up to my BBQ. After contacting Barbeque Pro Inc it was determined that the best way to get an accurate quote was to have someone over to have a look in person and to discuss options. I made an appointment and a technician (Mike) came over and was quite thorough, presenting some different options. After some discussion, we agreed on a method that was the most efficient and cost effective. While there is a fee for the consultant to come over, it is deducted from the final bill providing you hire them for the job. They emailed me a copy of the quote and then I booked for them to do the job.

The technician (same person who provided the quote) was on time, did an amazing job and made us feel like we were in good hands. I can now happily say good-bye to propane tanks! No unexpected costs, the price paid was the price quoted. Based on my experience, I would use Barbeque Pro again and would not hesitate to recommend them.

Old BBQ Looks New Again

I bought a 10 year old BBQ off my neighbour, and Floyd (Wilson) cleaned it up beautifully. It looks new and works better than before. I am super happy with his work, he showed up early, had all the tools he needed, and took care to keep his work area (my back deck) clean.

COULD NOT BELIEVE MY EYES

What an amazing service!!! After using this BBQ all year round for the past (at least) 15 years, I almost forgot the sides of the BBQ were actually not black! My experience with Barbeque Pro has been nothing short of incredible. From the booking process, to the numerous reminders, and even an "on the way" text to let me know they were coming, Barbeque Pro impressed me every step of the way. Thank you to the technician Kyle and the Barbeque Pro team for the incredible transformation!

Beware: BBQ Cleaning = ruined patio stones = management's refusal to be held accountable

Barbecue Pro cleaned my 14 year old Weber the afternoon of November 4th, 2020. Despite me telling JM that the stones had just been laid the day before he declined to use a tarp. In the cleaning process a rusty, greasy mess was spilled. JM hosed down the stones which made it not visible in the moment but it became visible as soon as it dried. Unfortunately it also caused it to spread. I called immediately the next morning and they sent him back with a bottle of Dawn to remove it. He tried but said it was so much work it would be cheaper to replace the stones. Told me not to worry, they are a reputable company and it will be taken care of. Several phone calls later and they sent Brian with a power washer. Same conclusion: too much work, cheaper to replace, don't worry, we are a reputable company and it will be taken care of. Well, I'm glad the employees feel that way about the place they work and I'm sorry to inform them that their boss Charles is not as honourable as they think. I live in a condo and the work that was done on the patio was to address a water problem in my basement. To maintain the warranty on that work meant the relaying of stones had to be carried out by the condo contractor. I connected Charles and the condo contractor. Charles delayed. Charles became rude. Charles had excuses. And once Charles had been quoted the cost of $1800.00, Charles stopped answering my calls or emails. Photos attached. The white streaks through the greasy, rusty stains are from JM's attempt to clean with the Dawn. Why didn't they send him with a power washer? By the time Brian came with a powerwasher the grease was sunk in too deeply and the staining was permanent. Oh, and to add insult to injury, they charged me for the BBQ cleaning!

Hello Priscilla, As we are a company that consistently strives for excellence, we appreciate your feedback, however we would like to clarify a few things. From the onset of this issue, we informed you the stains on the concrete pavers were not caused by the barbeque cleaning. If concrete does not have an adequate water sealant applied to the surface, in some cases, it will discolor when in contact with water with high iron or mineral content. The discoloration on your pavers do not represent grease stains and are clearly a rust color as a result of the water we used from your hose.

You can find more information on that here:

https://www.foundationarmor.com/articles/discolored-concrete/

The concrete pavers were laid the day before the appointment by a company who must not have put the water sealant on them, so when the water from your hose pooled on the stones, they became discolored. Upon hearing of this issue, we were very receptive to helping you resolve the problem, even though the discoloration was a result of water damage, and not the cleaning process itself. We sent technicians back several times and discussed replacing the concrete pavers for you at our expense. We were provided a quote of $1800.00 for the replacement work and materials. Considering we can buy the same concrete pavers you have for $10.99 each, we did not see it as fair to pay that amount for less than $300 worth of material. We attempted to arrive at a reasonable agreement, and offered alternative solutions. We are sorry that you have had a poor experience with Barbeque Pro as we pride ourselves on excellent customer service. We would be happy to revisit this issue with you and any of your barbeque needs in the future. If you would like to discuss further please contact our office at 416-925-9585.
