If all you have are some cracks to be repaired, you can expect to pay around $175.00. A complete rebuilding of your chimney from the crown to just below the roofline can cost $1,000 to $3,000.00. If the entire chimney all the way down to the fireplace needs to be replaced, it can cost around $10,000.
1 The cost depends on the type of piers used, how deep they have to go to reach stable soil and local labor rates. 2  Piers are placed 6-8 feet apart, and can cost $1,000-$3,000 each. 3  Underpinning just one corner of a house can run $3,500-$5,000 and up.
Johnson estimates the average wooden house on piers costs about $12 per square foot to lift, with another $8-$10 per square foot for a new foundation. Ball notes the cost can run as much as $50,000 â at $30 to $35 a square foot for a concrete-block house â and as high as $200,000 or more for large houses.When Erika Brigham elevated her small 1925 cottage â a tiny creek runs behind it â on Ohio Place near downtown Sarasota, the cost was $17,000.ut that same home, at base flood elevation, would have a premium of just $1,410 annually â and generate enough savings to pay for the elevation over a decade. Going three feet higher would reduce the flood premium even more, to $427 a year, FEMA notes.
