Chimney Repair
Crowns, flashing, brickwork and liners — repaired before small cracks turn into major rebuilds.
Learn more →Export's older homes often have original chimneys that appreciate a careful inspection before winter.

In fast-growing Export, small-borough homes with a mix of older and newer construction often come with gas fireplaces whose venting and connections deserve a professional eye. Roosevelt Chimney Works provides Export with inspection, cleaning, and service built for modern systems.
Because Export is part of Westmoreland County, its homes carry the particular mix of ages and styles that county is known for — small-borough homes with a mix of older and newer construction. Export's older homes often have original chimneys that appreciate a careful inspection before winter. That context shapes how we approach every chimney here: we read the home first, then recommend what it actually needs.
If there's one thing that shortens the life of a Export chimney, it's water that's allowed to sit and freeze. Our winters cycle across the freezing point again and again, and each cycle works absorbed moisture deeper into crown, mortar, and brick. Prevention beats repair every time.
We also serve neighboring Monroeville, Penn Hills, Plum and many more across Eastern Suburbs. Wherever you are in the Greater Pittsburgh area, Roosevelt Chimney Works can help.
For Export, our approach is simple and old-fashioned: treat the home like it's our own. That means a clean worksite, an honest assessment backed by camera footage, repairs favored over replacement, and work we're glad to put our name on.
These are the core chimney and fireplace services we bring to Export. Each links to a full description.
Crowns, flashing, brickwork and liners — repaired before small cracks turn into major rebuilds.
Learn more →Water stains near the fireplace? We track leaks to their actual source and stop them — not just cover the drywall.
Learn more →The crown is the chimney's roof. When it cracks, water pours into the masonry below — so we seal and restore it.
Learn more →When a liner is beyond repair, relining with stainless steel restores safe venting — often better than the original.
Learn more →Spalling brick, cracked joints, deteriorated stone — masonry restored by people who understand why it failed.
Learn more →Porous brick soaks up water like a sponge. A breathable sealer stops that — and the freeze-thaw damage that follows.
Learn more →Cracked firebox, failing damper, tired masonry — we repair the fireplace itself, inside and out.
Learn more →A small part that does a big job — keeping rain, animals and debris out of your flue, and sparks off your roof.
Learn more →Raking out failed mortar and packing in fresh — the single most cost-effective way to extend a chimney's life.
