I had a brick chimney built on a new home almost 20 years ago and it was 14K. I can't imagine what the cost would be today?
Yes. You are correct. It is definitely more expensive. I thought about an alternative but I am trying to do it correctly for the long term so my children don’t have to deal with a rebuild in the future.

Thanks
