Brand new door, 2 hinges and hardware, any idea on a price? We want 5 hung, will that make any difference?

The electricians there are not worth that.

I'm not going to do pricing cos it differs all over the country and depends a lot on how straight the casings/linings are, how far away the person has to cart the doors out the house if they need planing to fit.
If you have a room they can use where its not a problem if they fire shavings/sawdust all over its better than the whole house being covered in creme coloured carpets and they have to carry the doors down a flight of steps to work on them outside in the street where they dare not leave any tools.
Both extreme ends of what happens but you get my drift.

About a day, maybe a day and a half if its awkward?

Should be okay then. Its a bungalow and they can work outside the patio doors in the back garden and the first door is about 15 foot from there and the rest all within a few feet of that! :D
