Am I being ripped off?

Got a company from ratedpeople.com to replace a sink in our bathroom, install a bath panel and regrout the floor. Got quoted £600 for the job. I didnt think this was too bad but my wife thinks we are being ripped off. They had to smash the old sink as it couldnt be removed. This they told us to place in our normal waste…
