Small bedroom, how small? With a few assumptions let me break down how I'd price it.

1. Labour for 2 people to strip, re-board and inspect ceiling structure for damage (including tidying, dust sheeting, moving furniture etc.) - £375 could easily be more though
   
2. Proper disposal of old plasterboard according to regs. - £150
   
3. 4 X sheets plasterboard and fixings. £40
   
4. Skim. £200 Inc materials
   
5. Seal and 2 coats paint £175 Inc materials
   
   

Total £940

In this price I haven't including any mark up that would probably be added to the price of the painting and plastering. Also I haven't included what you could call "insurance job premium tax" - ie it's common practice to add extra to a job you know is for an insurance claim because (a) the client isn't paying (b) if the insurance company is paying directly you will probably be stuck with 90 day payment terms (c) you may be asked to guarantee your workmanship.

Edited because I did sumz wrong.
