Room plastered

I used a local company (North East England) to plaster my room 12*8 approximately. They were clean and did a really good job (it looks it, this is my first home so I am no expert). I paid £330 for all four walls and the artex cieling. Was this a fair price? I need another room done almost equal in size but had a flyer delivered from another company and am easily swayed. Should I go with the first company again?

    Thanks for the advice. Got the nearly identical 2nd room done by the same company. Glad I did. Charged me £30 less as part of a promotion thingy they were having. Only wanted one cup of tea as well.
