Bedroom renovation costs

Options
Afternoon everyone,

We're getting our bedroom completely re done. We moved in 18 months ago (2 up 2 down) and have been doing bit up at a time.

The following jobs still need doing:

Plastering
False dropped ceiling
Floor (probably refurbished floorboards)
Paint
Electrical (More plug sockets)

We've already spent £850 on the windows and i'm not including the cost of furniture.

It's a good sized room with a big victorian wardrobe, fireplace and double bed. I don't have exact measurements on me.

Is there any chance someone could suggest a ball pack figure of how much this could cost?

With the plastering, we also want to put some boards up on the partition wall and hopefully add some kind of soundproofing. The one plasterer that came round quoted us £850 and said the plasterboard drove the cost up.

Thanks for any advice.
