Established in 1996, our locally owned and operated chimney sweep in Cortlandt Manor, New York, has been sweeping and maintaining chimneys and dryer vents. Owner and operator Craig Ford is a 20+ year Chimney Safety Institute of America Certified Chimney Sweep. This credential is a "Hallmark of Excellence" in the chimney sweeping trade.
Check out CSIA.org to make sure your sweep is CSIA Certified. He is also a Professional Fire Lieutenant of 27 years (now retired). Another best practice is for you to contact the Westchester County Department of Consumer Protection and ask for the complaint history of the company you are working with.
WHEN an 82-year-old woman got a phone call in September promoting a chimney cleaning for $49, she accepted the offer. But what seemed like a good deal went sour when the three-man crew from Unique Chimney Company based in Patchogue, cautioned that she needed to replace her chimney liner immediately.

My dryer vent hose broke and needed immediate repair. After reading up on several companies, I chose CF Ford based on their reviews, and they were local. Wow! I couldn’t be happier with the level of service and expertise from this company. They scheduled me for the repair—and cleaning— the very next day. They did an excellent job at a very reasonable price. The service was thorough, timely and the premises was left completely clean. Highly recommend.

Craig & son provided top notch, professional cleaning service and prompt, friendly customer service. I’ve been using them for a few years now and they never disappoint!
In a business crowded with many less accomplished service providers, C.F. Ford Chimney Cleaning stands apart, way above and beyond the competition.
They’re honest, trustworthy and very detail oriented.

After years of using different local services that didn't do a good job, we are so happy to have found C F Ford Chimney. The office is responsive and confirms your appointment; the truck is clean and organized; they are on time!; Mr. Ford is professional and knowledgeable and above all thorough. We've been using them for at least 5 years now - I highly recommend using them for your chimney, wood stove and dryer vent cleaning too.

CF Ford was recently over and they did a great job. I wanted to be sure that all was safe prior to using the fireplace for the winter season. They performed an inspection to be sure all was as it should be. While onsite, they even pointed out and repaired a few things that were beyond the scope of what they came over for. They were timely, professional and very informative. The level,of professionalism and knowledge was clear. I'd highly recommend CF Ford.

They inspected chimney... left a pile of ashes in my fireplace, after they pulled washer/dryer to clean dryer vent , they put the unit back without checking the feet.... this thing wobbles like crazy now... after i pulled it out to fix.... you would think they would clean behind the unit....NOT..... lazy, sloppy job.... and i gave a nice tip.....i should have checked first....
