Mason for Chimney Rebuild

[TheProfessor]

There are two generations and multiple Hustons that do masonary work.
All are good.
If you don't get a prompt reply from one - go to the next one.

Most are going with a wood framed chimney, which can be covered with brick, stone, or wood veneer. It seems like real brick and stone chimneys are only going on high end builds because of their expense.
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
