Fair quote for RSJ installation plus a few extras

Right, I have some kind of breakdown on the cost of fitting the steelwork for the above job.
"
Prelims, waste, prep, propping - £2350
supply and install beams, remove masonry, box in and fireproof £4600
Make good, including re-route soil pipe, move a radiator, move light switch - £1900
"
What do you think? Sound about right for installations of two rsjs (one load bearing)? I guess it's not too bad, but I just don't want to be a mug. The other builder I had in quoted £1k more, and an Structural Engineer thought it sounded about right.
Many thanks0
