At least 3 grand for a full AFDD board

I would be more inclined to be asking if the rcbos he intends to fit are DP (double pole) as SP (single pole) can be of little benefit over a dual RCD in some scenarios.

I would also be ensuring that SPD is fitted.

Double pole switching, that is. I.e. SP + N.
DP is for split phase.

£650 is an extremely good price in my opinion especially if your electricians work is good. A full day seems about right too. In all honesty there couldn’t be a huge amount of circuits as 650 wouldn’t cover more then 6/7 circuits if I was doing it. If you are happy with his work, I’d say you should go with it.

I know what you mean, but It's still DP

Actually it's not. It's single pole with a switched neutral. But I know what u mean
