If it's a biggish building firm, then it's probably what they would charge.
I still say that a handyman should be around £180-200 for a day's work. Plus the other £80 for materials assuming that ladder access is good.
It would have to be someone who knows what they're doing though.
It's always a problem for householders, until they latch on to a reliable tradesman.

Baz, despite what people think, it's perfectly legal to be paid in cash.
It's legal tender.
It's not your responsibility as to what he does regarding how, or if he accounts for it. As self-employed, he should declare it on his returns as "earnings".
One proviso..... don't ask him about it. If he tells you it's going to be spent without declaring it (black economy), then technically you are conspiring to defraud the Revenue.
Pretty remote of course, but you never know.
Just consider the reduced price as a discount.
