Pricing for Sheetrock (Ceiling) Repair?

I now have a hole in the ceiling that's about 24" in diameter due to a repair of a leaking shower. I have repaired sheetrock in the ceiling before, but that was in a computer room and I have not bothered to texture (Couldn't find brush/tool to replicate pattern). The current opening is in the Den, so I have no other choice but to have it done "right". I'm sure the Mrs. will accept nothing less.
I got an estimate from a guy to repair the opening, texture and paint for $175 (metro Houston). Is that reasonable for that size opening?

At that size you are looking at a minimum repair, not many people are coming to your house for less than that for a 1/2 day of work...

That's pretty reasonable actually.

Yea that's a decent price. Make sure it includes patching and texturing.
I got a few medium size holes done last month for $165.

For that price you shouldn't expect top notch work.

Absolutely. Be thankful that he would even take the time to do a job that small.

Thats a good price. My wife put her foot through the ceiling and I had to fix it.....I would have gladly paid that for a pro job,

Yeah most guys wont even show up for a job under $500
