I am considering lowering my kitchen ceiling (its about 13ft square) as tere is a big dip in the middle where it leaked (ive just bought the house and hadnt noiced) but what would be a reasonable price as Ive been quoted £1k and this surely is too much?

When you say a big dip after a leak is this just the plaster board dropped and if that is the reason just take that section out,renew and skim
 
If all you need is timber framed out then plaster boarded + skim, a grand seems alot ( depends where you live )
If it's lath/plaster why don't you over board it :idea: phone local plasters up for some quotes, it would take them a day if that.
How did the water get on the ceiling in the first place and is it sorted now ?

We lowered my friends ceiling last week using the british gypsum m/f system.it was 12by10. All the materials cost £110 including the plaster so i think £400-£450 max would be a fairer price.It took us a good day to do the job
