No, I will ask him to do only the remedial work.
That's my point, having the hob and oven on the same circuit is fully compliant with the current regulations. Suggesting that there is any need for them to be on seperate circuits is incorrect and they are ripping you off.
They may not be deliberately ripping you off, it could be through a genuine lack of knowledge of the regulations, but either way it is wrong.
There are far too many electricians who have not properly read and understood the changes in the regulations and are still working to previous editions of the regulations. This is often unintentional and they are just falling back on what they were taught as an apprentice.
