I known I am asking a very difficult question here but does it sound
reasonable? Is it cheap?

All except skimming the landing ceiling should be within normal
d-i-y skills (or do you say "home improvement"?).

Yes of course they are - but obviously the OP has decided for
whatever reason not to do the jobs themselves.

So why are they asking in a DIY NG ?

For the same reason I asked a question yesterday about warm air heating
- with absolutely no DIY content at all, for the same reason someone
else posted regarding a house price/buying question - diy content? -
Just two examples.


I see the two as being very different


This group has lots of people with a wide variety of experience is
'housey/construction' matters and as a rule they are happy to share
that without nitpicking over whether or not something is strictly on
topic for 'diy'. If there was another newsgroup to cover such things
then there would eb an argument for directing them elsewhere, seeing as
AFAIK there isn't then uk.d-i-y seems a good place for them
