Unless he's one of those guys who works off a ladder. We can't assume anything, good or bad
If he can take down a chimney stack from a ladder then he deserves a lot more than £800:00!

The thing is, by making assumptions like that you're doing the same thing as the people complaining about electrician's rates. So lets look at the roofer's costs for that half day. Scaffolding the front of a house, @£300:00, a skip £120:00 because all waste has to be carried by a licensed carrier, the labourer more like £80:00 to be honest. So that's £400:00. Out of the remaining £400:00 he has to pay public liability which is almost double the usual because he's working above the roof line, tools like ladders have to be commercial grade, running a van, materials to cap the hole where the stack was. Then account for him loosing half his weekend.
Bitching between the trades is OK as a bit of banter, but when the green eye comes into play no one wins.
