I couldn't really figure it out. Seems a bit high for the woodwork I can see in the picture but cheap for the porch. Maybe access is complicated. Surprised that they would be quoting for external work at the moment anyway, would make sense to leave it until next spring/summer.
Maybe they just don't fancy it right now and I can understand why, being up a ladder in this weather is no fun.

the driveway is maybe not the most appealing thing to put a platform on, so maybe that's a factor.
We're SW facing and about 100 yards from the sea so I'm paranoid about the woodwork being killed off this winter, no idea how long its been since it last had some attention

Yeah sorry but as the forum approve sage on these matters it had to be done 😊 I also thought about the time of year and if you’re near the sea then corr that’s a job best put off until the dry weather.
My mother had soffits/facias done 2 years ago, not dis-similar and also near the sea (Norfolk). She paid £1500 but summer time. So accounting for a south coast tax and inflation I think 2kish would seem maybe closer to the mark (but hers didn’t need any rotten wood fixing)

Does it include all materials and access? Seems a touch higher than I might expect but it's a lot of time spent up ladders so not a quick and easy job plus I dunno what condition they are in etc
Dunno if @Airhead would have a better idea
