PITTSBURGH – Litigation between an insurance company representing a Wexford man and the owner of a chimney sweep business, whose allegedly subpar work caused a fire resulting in almost $300,000 in damages, has been settled.
State Farm Fire and Casualty Company (as subrogee of Mark Hessling) of Bloomington, Ill. first filed suit in the Allegheny County Court of Common Pleas on Nov. 13 versus Almir Cemer (individually and doing business as “Al’s Chimney Sweep”), of Coraopolis.
The suit first explained that Hessling owns property on Timberglen Drive West in Wexford and contracted with Cemer for service to the chimney at that residence.
