Fit new ignition switch to a Beko dual fuel cooker

The dual fuel (bought in 2022) cooker needs a new ignition switch. I have sourced one on the internet & know that is approx £10. 
My quote for buying said switch & fitting is £117.
Is it approx 2 hours work?
Loved our trip to the West Coast USA. Death Valley is the place to go!

    probably no more than a  2 minute job but anyone coming out will have a minimum call out fee.
    I have swapped ignition switch's on hobs before and they just pull out and have 1 plug to swap on the back, easy diy

    Yes it is fair. Not sure why you equate the price to two hours' work.
