    If theres no woodwotk and just the walls a rough figure would be in around the £600-£700 mark depending on area

    You say rough cast, is it already white,how rough is it? as It may well need 2 coats .If its not to rough then £1000 should cover it including paint

    My advice ask around you may find the quotes vary by a large amount.

    I supplied paint for walls ..not woodwork though
