Re-pointing stone cottage - is this really how much it costs?!

Please be kind as I genuinely am shocked at a couple of quotes we have received to re-point our stone cottage.

Granted I had no real clue of what it would cost and appreciate that this is a specific skill and time required.

The first quote didn’t include scaffolding. It’s a semi-detached property; old extension doesn’t need doing as it’s not stone. I’ve also attached pictures.

Two quotes so far:

£11K
£23K

I would really appreciate any insight from
those who have had this work done or do it as a trade.

Just updating as I saw a couple of people had asked. The work is due to start in a couple of weeks. We’ve had to pay more for the scaffolding that’s being put up for the roof but other than that we’re on track.
