Lino including screed

Hi all,
We have just got this quote through and wondering if people think it is about right for flooring. Our current laminate flooring is rotten due to leaky doors. Once the doors are fixed we plan to get Lino put down.
19sqmts
Lino @ 10.99 = 208.81
Fitting of Lino @ 4.00 = 76.00
Sealent and spray glue = 9.98
Uplift old wood and clear from site = £45
Stop gap screed and milk = 171.96
Labour = 120.00
Primer 121 = 22.99
Does this sound about right? I was also wondering what the fitting costs were if labour is listed separately. Will query it if no one knows but thought maybe it was something obvious I was missing.
Thank your in advance for your help.

He has to remove existing floor covering
Prime the floor and allow to dry, most decent flooring fitters I know give 2 coats, takes 30-60 mins to dry between
Mix and pour screed
Its easily 2-3hrs and then a return trip 48hrs to lay vinyl. I would expect to pay a half day rateHi, 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 -
It still seems daft to have 2 labour charges.
My husband was a decorator and it would be like him putting
down
Labour to prepare surfaces £xxx
Labour to Paint surfaces £xxxxmake the most of it, we are only here for the weekend.
