Chimney Sweep & Repair in New Brighton, PA

Roughly 5,600 people live in New Brighton, a borough in Beaver County about 26 miles northwest of downtown Pittsburgh. The typical home in New Brighton was built around 1938 (about 61% of homes here were built before 1950), so original masonry chimneys with clay-tile or even no flue liner are a regular sight — and age-related mortar, crown, and liner problems are the most common reasons homeowners call. Most homes in New Brighton (about 75%) 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 5,400 residents per square mile, it is one of the denser parts of our service area, where homes often sit close together. We serve New Brighton together with nearby communities such as Beaver Falls, Beaver and Chippewa 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.
