Plastering/Artex quotes

[watersm]

I'm about to get some quote for plastering of a bathroom ceiling - approximately 180cmx180cm - just wondered what the going rate would be for something like this - to give me an idea.....not trusted to do it myself by the other half.

On another note - the bedroom and living room ceiling in this house is artexed (horrible swirly thing) what's the suggested solution for removing/replacing it....and how much does that usually cost....I 've been told its a messy jobn to get it off!!

Cheers

A plasterer would charge you a day's rate for skimming the bathroom at a cost of £120-150 depending on where you live and if they supplied all the materials then the cost would obviously rise . You may find though at the minute good plasterers are all very busy so be prepared either to wait or pay more than the odds if you want to queue jump.
