Costing help

I have looked at threads for costs of a stud wall but can’t see an up to date price for what we want so...
Can anyone please advise the sort of figure I should be looking to pay to have a stud wall put up to split lounge and diner. Gap is only 8/9 foot. Putting in french doors (which we already have) plus plastering, coving and skirts.  Seems to be hard to pin down a builder right now so only have one quote of £1100. Is this too much or about right? 🙏

    Sounds about right!

    Thank you! I realised after I should have posted in the sub forum so thanks for answering regardless. I was doubtful as stud walls seemed to be priced about £600 and so as we already have the doors, I wasn’t expecting nearly double but I guess it’s a lot of work adding a frame and fitting doors as opposed to a straight wall across.
