Most backyards in Santa Monica are small, so people make them count. Courtyards behind bungalows, condo patios, rooftop decks, a strip of concrete off the alley with a grill and two chairs. Winters are mild, so the grill gets used most of the year, and the fire pit comes out in the evening because the marine layer cools things off fast, even after a warm day.
That marine air is the main thing I see wrecking equipment. Salt and damp get into everything. Burners rust from the inside, grates flake, igniters quit, and the "stainless" on cheaper grills starts spotting within a season or two. Gas fireplaces and fire pits near the water get corroded pilot assemblies and sticky valves. Over in Ocean Park or along Montana Avenue, it matters less how nice the unit was and more how it was kept. Inland a few blocks helps, but not as much as people hope.
In fall the Santa Ana winds blow dust and ash around and can knock out a pilot light. Wildfire season also means you should check local fire restrictions before burning anything.
One tip: rinse the salt film off with a damp cloth and fresh water, dry it, and cover the unit when you're done. Then run the burners a few minutes to drive out moisture.

It depends on the size of the grill, how dirty it is and whether parts need replacing. Most companies quote a flat price after asking about your grill, so compare a couple of the verified pros in Santa Monica.
For most people, yes. A pro takes the burners and parts apart, clears grease and blockages you can't reach, and spots worn or unsafe parts early. That usually means better performance and a longer life for the BBQ grill.
Most people who grill regularly have a professional deep cleaning once or twice a year, plus quick brushing after each use. Grills near the coast or used heavily in summer benefit from more frequent cleaning.
