Chimney Sweep & Repair in Green Tree, PA

Roughly 4,800 people live in Green Tree, a borough in Allegheny County about 4 miles southwest of downtown Pittsburgh. The typical home in Green Tree dates to around 1962 (about 16% of homes here were built before 1950). Chimneys from the mid-century building era are now well past 50 years old, and their flue liners are often cracked, undersized, or missing for the way modern furnaces and water heaters vent. Most homes in Green Tree (about 84%) heat with natural or propane gas, and gas furnaces and water heaters vent through the chimney too — a blocked or deteriorated flue can push carbon monoxide back into the house. At roughly 2,300 residents per square mile, it is one of the denser parts of our service area, where homes often sit close together. We serve Green Tree together with nearby communities such as Crafton, Carnegie and Dormont.

Western Pennsylvania sees real winters with repeated freeze-thaw cycles from December through March, which is hard on exterior masonry — cracked mortar joints and crown damage show up more here than in milder climates.
