I rather expect pricing in Britain is quite higher than "here"
Hopefully one of your countrymen will chime in
Parts are variable but 6hrs labor ( labour to you ) seems like the max to me
Mileage on bike ?

I was told here in CA that the cost for just tensioners would typically be $800-$1,000 depending on hourly rates.
I'm not sure you can find a shop worth going to that has a rate less than $150/hour these days.

So order the parts and give her a go. The weather is probably crap where you are anyway.

Several years back when my '04's tensioners were replaced by my local independent shop it was $1,500, he used the Screaming Eagle Kit, which includes a better oil pump.

After reading about the potential for major damage with the early TC tensioners, I had my '03 done shortly after I bought it using the H-D Screaming Eagle Cam Plate kit as mentioned. Better oil pump with the newer style Hydraulic Cam Tensioners. That was in 2017 and I seem to recall it was right around $1100 which included the Cam Plate and bearings.
