Crown Repair
The crown is the chimney's roof. When it cracks, water pours into the masonry below — so we seal and restore it.

As Cranberry Township has expanded, so has the number of gas and factory-built fireplaces here — systems that are convenient but far from maintenance-free. Roosevelt Chimney Works keeps Butler County homes' modern fireplaces venting safely.
Because Cranberry Township is part of Butler County, its homes carry the particular mix of ages and styles that county is known for — extensive newer suburban development alongside older homesteads. Cranberry Township's rapid growth means many newer homes with gas fireplaces — and older ones with masonry chimneys that need care. That context shapes how we approach every chimney here: we read the home first, then recommend what it actually needs.
Western Pennsylvania's freeze-thaw cycles are the defining challenge for chimneys in Cranberry Township. Water works into small cracks in the crown, mortar, and brick, then freezes and expands through the winter, widening the damage a little more each year. Catching it early keeps a minor repair from becoming a major one.
We also serve neighboring Mars, Seven Fields, Zelienople and many more across Butler County. Wherever you are in the Greater Pittsburgh area, Roosevelt Chimney Works can help.
