Internal archway to doorway

I have 2 internal archways that i think were doors once upon a time, i want to change this so they're square doorways with frames.

Currently they're just archways with no frame or anything.

How much would i be looking at for labour and materials?

"For a project like that, labor and material costs can vary based on your location, the complexity of the work, and the materials you choose. It's advisable to get local quotes from contractors. However, a rough estimate could be provided if you share more details about the dimensions and materials you have in mind."

"Is it a solid wall or stud that's the difference if the arch is wedge brick if it is support.but from 275-875"

"If the door you would like is same size or a touch smaller, you would more than likely be able to fit the door to the studs, that are forming the arch. If it's bigger the board and studs will need cutting out and moving. Plus patching the plaster to make it look good, a day maybe two labour,.
Material cost would be just the cost of door and lining architrave etc"

"It would all depend on if there are existing lintels still in place, but you should budget £200-300 including a new door"

"If you are looking to fit doors as well I would say around £400-£500 in labour."
