    Plastering wise you could be looking at about £2500-£3000 to have the whole house reskimmed.

    Do you mean replastering ceilings as well?

    What about the walls..will the old plaster need knocking off first if it's in a bad condition? If so, factor in the cost of a couple of skips and labour for removing the resultant mess. Don't forget to get the wiring done before the plastering...! :) To get someone in to do all the work you are probably not going to see much change from 10k.
