Is $1,500 to perform full wall restoration after a small leak a fair price?

Project Details

The leak has been fixed. The quote for 'full wall restoration' does not include patching the wall back up. I thought the price was ridiculous, especially when the contractor called it 'spare change'. I'm looking into drying the wall myself and wondering if painting is necessary since it's inside a water closet. I'm also concerned about mold and termites and how to check for them. I'm researching DIY options and agree there's no need to 'pretty this up' unless selling.
