I also DIYd it using a belt sander, cheap titan hoover and masking tape/sheets keep dust out of other rooms. Was fine in the end, although took a couple of weekends. Can see why throwing money makes sense too though and will probably hire someone/something when we do the whole of the downstairs.
Far less successful containing dust when we had the chimney knocked out, or going back to brick while for the bathroom.
