Liner Replacement
When a liner is beyond repair, relining with stainless steel restores safe venting — often better than the original.

Serving Baldwin means working on some of the South Hills's most characterful homes. With established mid-century homes on the hills south of the city, these chimneys ask for patience and the right technique — exactly the approach Roosevelt Chimney Works was built around.
Because Baldwin is part of Allegheny County, its homes carry the particular mix of ages and styles that county is known for — established mid-century homes on the hills south of the city. Baldwin's older homes often have original chimneys that have weathered decades of freeze-thaw cycles. That context shapes how we approach every chimney here: we read the home first, then recommend what it actually needs.
Around Baldwin, the biggest threat to a chimney is water — through a cracked crown, failed flashing, a missing cap, or porous brick. Once it's in, our freeze-thaw winters turn it into an ice wedge that pries masonry apart. Stopping the water is the heart of nearly every repair we do here.
We also serve neighboring Mt. Lebanon, Upper St. Clair, Bethel Park and many more across South Hills. Wherever you are in the Greater Pittsburgh area, Roosevelt Chimney Works can help.
Our Baldwin customers call us for everything from a first-of-the-season sweep to a full restoration of a chimney that's been neglected for years. Whatever the job, we start with a camera-backed inspection so you can see exactly what we see before deciding anything.
