Hi everyone, I am thinking of getting a builder in to widen the chimney opening up to the dotted line in the pic to fit in a cast iron fireplace for decorative purposes. Received a quote of £750 for the job, which includes fitting in a new lintel. Doesn't include fitting fireplace.
As you can see in this pic there is a steel rod at the bottom-am I correct in saying that its there to support the chimney?
Does anyone know if this is a reasonable quote? Thanks
