Commercial Griddle & Broiler Service & Repair
The short answer
Griddle & Char-Broiler Repair in Yonkers typically runs $200–$750 — the $95 diagnostic is credited toward the repair. Most jobs finish same-day with OEM-spec parts, backed by a 90-Day Parts & Labor Warranty, with 24/7 emergency dispatch. Call (914) 449-5646.
A commercial griddle has to hold an even temperature across the entire plate, and a char-broiler has to deliver controlled searing heat without dangerous flare-ups — when either drifts, food comes out inconsistent and the line slows down. Cold spots on a griddle usually trace to a failed thermostat or a weak burner in one zone; flare-ups and uneven broiler heat come from clogged ports and grease-loaded radiants. Our technicians service the burners, thermostats, gas valves and ignition on Garland, Vulcan and other griddles, char-broilers and salamanders, restoring even heat and confirming safe combustion.
On griddles we test each thermostat and burner zone against actual plate temperature and verify gas pressure, then clean ports and recalibrate or replace faulty thermostats. On char-broilers we inspect burners and radiants for clogging and grease loading that cause flare-ups, check the gas valves, and restore even heat. Pilots, igniters and safety devices are verified, and every repair ends with a combustion and safety check.
A griddle or char-broiler that won't hold even heat slows the Yonkers line and makes plates inconsistent, and a flaring broiler is a safety hazard. We prioritize these calls, service the burners, thermostats and gas valves these units need, and restore even, controlled cooking heat — then verify safe combustion so the station is both productive and safe.

Answers
Frequently asked questions
Our griddle has cold spots on one end — is that fixable?
Yes. Uneven griddle heat is usually a failed or drifting thermostat, a weak burner, or a gas-pressure issue in that zone. We test each zone against actual plate temperature, clean the burners, verify gas pressure, and recalibrate or replace the faulty thermostat so the whole surface cooks evenly.
Our char-broiler flares up badly — is that a burner problem?
Flare-ups and uneven searing come from clogged burner ports and grease buildup in the radiants, or a burner/valve fault. We clean and service the burners and radiants, check the gas valves, and restore even, controlled heat so you get consistent results without dangerous flare-ups.
Can you calibrate a thermostatic griddle so it holds the set temperature?
Yes. We measure actual surface temperature against the setpoint and calibrate or replace the thermostat so the griddle holds temperature accurately across its zones — important for both food quality and safe, efficient operation.
Do you also service salamanders and cheesemelters?
We do. Salamanders and cheesemelters share the same burner, gas-valve and ignition systems as broilers, and we repair their burners, elements and controls so they heat evenly and light reliably.

“Broiler flared hard enough to scorch skirt steak and trip the hood alarm twice in a week. He stripped the radiants, cleared the grease channel, reset the air shutters. Even sear now.”
“Freezer door had frosted itself shut and the crew were prying at it with a sheet pan. Open frame heater, shredded sweep. Both replaced, closer adjusted. It opens clean every morning now.”
“Slicer was tearing prosciutto instead of cutting it and the guard would not seat. He trued and sharpened the blade, replaced the interlock switch, and would not hand it back to my counter staff until the guard latched the way it should.”
“Sandwich rail was sitting at 46 and my cooks were pulling pans every hour to hold temperature. He showed me the condenser packed solid with fryer grease, cleaned it, fitted a new gasket on the lower door, and logged the rail back under 41.”
