$200 worth of block and cement for $0
So tomorrow my dad and I are putting up a chimney. I will start taking pictures of this later today or tomorrow morning. Dad has already poured the foundation, now we just have to drill the hole through the wall, and lay the block with the floo. And somehow get the stove over here from our neighbors house. Then we will officially have our wood-stove back, and I will be WARM.
The cost for the block and the cement and the floo was going to run us about $200. Floo’s are generally expensive but my uncle is giving us one for free. My dad’s friend Buzz was getting the price for the block and cement for us, but apparently decided to go ahead and order the block and the cement and pay for it himself as a housewarming gift.
So the cost for installing this chimney? $0. A savings of probably $2,000 if we were hiring someone to do it. Maybe more.
