Chiminey repair looks off




Hey so I have pretty steep peaks and my chimney had bricks falling off. A local contractor did a job and intially quoted me $2500 for a rebuild for a chimney intially were suppose to do the following, but do you think work was done? Is $1500 what this is worth?
ITEM(S) did not happen
New Chimney rebuild
- Tear down chimney to roofline
- Rebuild using brick that match existing brick on house
- Dye mortar joints to match existing mortar on house
- Install new cement crown
- Install new stainless steel cap
- Waterproof
THIS Is what was done
but went out and said they only and want to charge $1500
- the chimney (repaired mortar joints)
• Rebuilt the top of the chimney
• Replaced missing bricks
• Ground out the entire chimney (removed old mortar)
• Applied new mortar in all joints
• Ensured the chimney is solid and safe
• Did not fully rebuild due to steepness and lack of a lift
these are before and after can you tell me if work was done? It looks like only a couple bricks done
