A good cap will minimize exposure to water of the brick work under it, thereby increasing your long term cost savings. It will cost you $300 to $500 to purchase the cap and rent a hoist and safety harness to get the cap on top of the chimney. A mason or bricklayer will charge $1,000 to $1,500 to do the job.
1 A mason-built brick fireplace costs $3,500 to $5,000. 2  If installing a gas burning fireplace, plan on spending $750 to $1,000 for a gas log kit.

For a 10â chimney, thatâs an average cost of $600 to $1,000 and $1,000 to $2,000, respectively.
