Plastering quote - is this expensive

message from rition on 15 May 2004
I have received a quote of £250 + Materials + Labour (plus an extra
day if it goes to two days) to have two slightly rippled ceilings
smoothed off.

The rooms measure 3.2 x 4 metres and 1 x 3.2 metres.

Does anyone know if this is reasonable.

Thanks

What else is there othere than materials and labour?

That figure seems about right for a day's plastering.

In Liverpool.
Just paid £100 all in, to skim a plasterboarded celing in a room 4m x 3.1m.
The plasterer had an assistant (mixing it up).
Took them just over 2 hours.

Strip remains of kitchen tiles (I've taken off all bar the remnants) and
any lose substrate, render archway flat and plaster all the walls in a
3.5 x 4.5m kitchen £500 plus materials. For that I get a plasterer (my
brother in law) and his labourer for 2 days. I'm expecting up to £100
on materials.

Neil isn't doing me a deal - my wife charges him full wack for legal work.

I'm in Sevenoaks, where are you (or the plastering job)?

depends where you live, but what is the £250 for ?
what else is there apart from labour and materials

around here (rhondda valleys) it would be no more than £200 all in and 1
days work max
