Chimney Sweep & Repair in Pleasant Hills, PA

Roughly 8,400 people live in Pleasant Hills, a borough in Allegheny County about 8 miles south of downtown Pittsburgh. The typical home in Pleasant Hills dates to around 1958 (about 22% 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 Pleasant Hills (about 89%) 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 3,000 residents per square mile, it is one of the denser parts of our service area, where homes often sit close together. We serve Pleasant Hills together with nearby communities such as Jefferson Hills, Whitehall and South Park 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.
