Structural Drawings and Buildings Regs Package

I have got planning approval for replacing a conservatory with a single storey extension and converting a garage to living space.
The former will require removal of external wall currently between kitchen and conservatory.
I have been quoted £2850 (including VAT) for
* One Structural Site Survey ( Pre-construction)
* Structural Designs and Calculations (according to the planning drawings submitted).
* Building Regulations Package
Location is in Surrey and close to London border.
Does this seem like a fair quote? I've got absolutely no clue

It's good value if you mean that it also includes the completion of work, if that is just for the preliminaries then no it's not good value!0

it includes a site survey, making the structural drawings and ensuring it complies with building regulations, submitting it to building control (fees extra for building control - £900+VAT) and liasing with them to get approval for plans.
is this counted as "preliminaries" or "completion of work"?0
