Chimney Sweep & Repair in Mount Pleasant Township, PA

About 33 miles southeast of downtown Pittsburgh in Westmoreland County, Mount Pleasant Township has roughly 10,000 residents. The typical home in Mount Pleasant Township dates to around 1966 (about 30% 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. About 3% of homes in Mount Pleasant Township use wood as their main heating fuel, which makes regular sweeping and inspection more than a formality: creosote builds up fastest where chimneys do real work all winter. Spread over about 55 square miles, it is one of the more rural parts of our service area. We serve Mount Pleasant Township together with nearby communities such as Bullskin Township, Unity Township and East Huntingdon Township.

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.
