Installing new raised lintel cost estimate?

paulalde

Afternoon,

I'm wondering if there is anyone with experience who may be able to tell me what kind of price range I'd be looking at to have a new lintel installed in my fireplace at a raised height?

The idea is to house a range in there and the current stone lintel is a bit low.

The only pic I have handy is below, this is part way through me clearing out the old non structural brick to restore the original builders opening. It's a nice size width wise, just a shame about the height.



I know what the job entails but I'll leave it for a professional.

Depends a bit on where you are but 3-500 quid plastered and finished.

Sorry I should have mentioned I'm situated in Leeds and no finish is required, it's literally just the lintel work.

Thanks for your reply.
