Their estimate for my 3 burner came in at $235 by the way.
I wished them good luck with their business and told them that their price was too steep for me.
the amount they are charging is probably fair based on the time invested, 2 guys with travel at min $20/hr they are probably at $100 or more just to break even. seems like a better model would be to clean at their place and offer pickup and drop off as an option.

I just cleaned my grill last weekend, prob took and hour to take it apart, blast and put back together. plus a half hour in between waiting for the oven cleaner spray to do its thing
