New brathroom quote - does this seem about right

I'm looking to have my bathroom redone and have had a few poeople out to give me quotes. I live in Paisley, near Glasgow.
So far I've only had one come back to me with a price and I wanted to ask if this sounded reasonable.
The job involves removing a corner bath, 1200 shower enclosure wc, and wash hand basin and replacing each with new units in the same positions. I will probably be going for a Dorchester suite from Heritage Bathrooms.
Removing approx 18m2 of wall tiles and 5m2 of floor tiles and retiling with new tiles and relining walls if required.
Installing a Mira sport electric shower and three recessed ceiling lights.
There is also WC waste pipe under the floor that needs to be replaced.
The price I have been quoted is £5,400 excluding the cost of the tiles.
I would appreciate any comments on this price.

Based in prices i charge in Edinburgh for kitchen and bathroom fitting i would say its about right
Heritage are part of the bristan group so expect a 40% discount on retail prices
Sounds about 8-9 days work if removing plaster and dot and dabbing plasterboard
Is the wiring there already for the shower?Hi, we’ve had to remove your signature. If you’re not sure why please read the forum rules or email the forum team if you’re still unsure0 -
The price quoted includes the supply & filling of the Dorchester suite.
The only thing not included is the tiles, and the fitter recommended a few places where he has an account and he will buy them for me giving me the benefit of his trade discount.
There isn't any wiring for a shower at the moment and the supply needs to be taken from the ground floor to the 1st floor bathroom.0
