Just awaiting for a couple of quotes for some ceiling plastering work and wondered if any of you "experts" to tell me how much a expect?

    best guess based on what i was charged 2 yrs ago?
    200/400 quid depending where you live.
    Get some gorm.
  • For a 14x8 i usually charge about £200(spot on ormus), but if its to be overboarded you can stick another £100 on top per ceiling.

    I'd say around £500 if you live in London, possibly more...

    It depends on a number of thing but £150 per ceiling is a good ball park figure
