The cost of removing a chimney depends on factors like chimney size, location, and whether it’s a full or partial removal. On average, a full chimney removal can range from $2,000 to $5,000, while partial removal (such as removing only the chimney stack above the roofline) might cost between $500 and $2,000. Additional costs may apply for repairs to the roof or walls once the chimney is removed and for any bricking up or sealing of interior spaces where the chimney was located. Labor rates and accessibility of the chimney can also affect the final cost.
