If all the work is done in one trip then the quote for £375 +vat isn't way over the top. The materials would be no more than £160-00 so the labour for fitting is £215 -00. Which for 1 days work isn't a bad earner but its not way over the top either.

It would definitely be best to have all the work carried out at the same time as it saves on traveling for one thing.

Plus the quote to replace one unit 1770 mm x 730mm is high. Materials are around £60-00 so labour is around £115-00 for what is no more than 1-2hrs work maximum.

They can all be done in 1 day by 1 man.
