I need to get sash windows and old (poss Victorian) glazed door repaired. They are in a pretty bad state. Am struggling to find people to quote for it and the sole quote I have is for £180 a day (for 5 days). I suspect this kind of stuff is v expensive- but wondered if anyone else had had this kind of work done, so I can be sure that it is this kind of expensive.

Yes, it's that expensive. I generally estimate £1k per sash window for total restoration (that's upper and lower sash and cill). They are better than new afterwards taking into account modern draught proofing. If they are not in terrible condition it can cost less.
£180 a day is the going day rate. It won't be easy to find people to do it, I'm booked all year and turning down 2 jobs a week.
