Chimney Removal Tips for Rutland, IL

What is the average chimney removal cost?

It costs between $2,000-$4,000 on average to have a chimney completely removed by a professional.

There are many factors that can affect chimney removal price, though:

  • Chimney removal method
  • Chimney size
  • Whether or not the chimney is part of the structure
  • What the chimney is made of
  • Amount of debris
  • Contractor your hire
