How much just to emulsion a ceiling 6' by 4' please? (Plain, no artex or anything)
Is it likely that anyone would take on the job or would they want to do the walls as well
and be likely to give a silly quote for just the ceiling?

Assuming its a two coat job, with no prep about £45-50 labour would seem reasonable to me. its only a few hrs work, someone could 1st coat it, take their dinner and 2nd coat it up.0
