View Park-Windsor HillsGrill Cleaning & BBQ Repair

View Park-Windsor Hills is an unincorporated community in Los Angeles County, on the slopes of the Baldwin Hills just west of Leimert Park and south of the Baldwin Hills Crenshaw area. It's two older neighborhoods combined into one census area. Most homes went up between the 1920s and the 1960s, and many were custom designed, with Spanish Colonial Revival, Mediterranean, Tudor and mid-century styles all within a few blocks. A large part of View Park is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

The streets curve with the hills, and lots step up or down from the street. Backyards often sit on terraces with a view toward downtown or the Westside, which makes the patio the natural place to cook and host.

Plenty of families here have owned their homes for decades, and the outdoor cooking areas reflect that. We regularly see built-in grills that went in 15 or 25 years ago, set in brick or stucco islands that still look fine. The grill inside is another story: burners thinned out, valves that turn stiffly, an igniter that quit years ago, and a temperature gauge stuck at zero.

The good news is that a well-built grill can usually be brought back. Our restoration service replaces the parts that wear out and leaves the parts that don't. When a grill truly is finished, we can install a new one in the old island without disturbing the masonry, which is our sales and replacement service.

Some homes here have steep driveways, steps up to the backyard or limited parking out front. That's fine. Our techs carry what they need by hand and work from the patio. If there's a gate code, a side path or a dog we should know about, mention it when you book.
