Before Christmas I removed the wall between living and dining room with my father in law (who is a builder). Cost was around £6.5k
£3.5k was his labour and materials
£1k steel frame
£1k. Custom plaster coving around the dining room (to match existing in the living room)
£450 structural engineer
£500ish for new skirting + fitting everywhere
That got us to a plastered finish. I did a lot of labour myself though - moving light switch and sockets, plaster boarding, replacing/swapping floorboards, reinstating picture rail etc
I can't obviously comment for Scotland but I'd say your quote seems reasonable.
Oh and we had a skip (£350)
