Not too many years ago I would have taken a chimney down myself but I
think I'll give it a miss this time!


Anyone any idea on how much I might expect to pay to have a chimney (2
bricks x 2 bricks x 13 bricks high) removed and the resultant gap tiled
over?

couple of days +materials/profit ~6-700?


+ scaffolding and a skip, so double that...


well was thinking tower scaffold& roof ladders - which most
reasoonable builders seem to be able to get hold of if not already
own?


Ouch! I was hoping for less than half that. Perhaps the local guy might
weave his usual magic and use just ladders.
