Sandwich Chimney Sweep, Inc.

Sandwich Chimney Sweep has been cleaning and repairing Cape Cod chimneys since the 1970s. The company works out of Emerald Way in Forestdale with a PO Box in Sandwich, is run by Keith Cliff with Jeanne Cliff as vice president, and is a four-person outfit. It holds Massachusetts Home Improvement Contractor registration 120859, and the state registry lists the company itself as the holder of record with the registration active. Its BBB profile carries an A+ grade, and the record there shows no complaints or government actions. The work it lists is the full chimney trade rather than sweeping alone: chimney and fireplace cleaning, wood stove flue and insert cleaning, heating flue cleaning, chimney repairs and relining, damper replacement, caps and chase covers, water repellent on masonry chimneys, and wood stove and fireplace installation. There is a permit trail behind that. BuildZoom shows 121 permitted projects over the life of the company, fifteen of them in the last three years, at a typical permit value of about $4,300 — the shape of steady small-job work rather than big builds. On the neighbour side, the local reference is short: in a November 2025 Nextdoor thread in the Mashpee area, someone answering a request for a chimney sweep named this company. It is a name-drop rather than an account of a job. They are a sensible call if you want a long-established, registry-verified Cape chimney company for a clean, an inspection or a repair. Confirm the registration number yourself on the state registry when you book, ask whether the visit includes an inspection or only a sweep, and get the price for any repair — relining and caps especially — quoted before the work starts rather than after the flue is opened up.
