I have an old fireplace, the bricks which make up the back of the fireplace are becoming loose and the cement is falling out. Can I point this up with fire cement? If so, any tips?? THANKYOU!

But unless you notify LABC it won’t be certified compliant & that may give you problems later.But I did do some research, since I would have DIYed the flue.
I think that’s a fair price, especially for a 12m x 150mm flue. For an 8m x 150mm flue, offset stove termination fitting, register plate, pot, cowl, & Vermiculite flue insulation (£450) + installation of the flue, cassette stove, testing, BC notices, test & certification (£400) so I paid £850 total. I though was good value considering the local independent HETAS fitter I employed was prepared to fit the stove I supplied & put in 10 solid hours work including climbing up & down on the roof with an 8m long stainless steel snake on his back; that's not one for me ! Go to a “stove shop” & you could easily pay £2k for the same work.12m double skin flue x 150mm was about £25 per metre and the firebox (bespoke) about £200- add fitting, removal of pot, flanching, anti down draft cowl and I'd say £700-£1000
