Help with dishwasher issue

We have just discovered that there is pipework and electrical socket in the way to a full size dishwasher (either integrated or freestanding. The width and height are fine but it’s the depth. Is this a cheap job to sort? We need to move the pipes out of the way, move the electrical socket to an alternative cupboard and also remove a section from the wooden support holding the worktop.

"Hi there, so you’ve got to break down the jobs individually how long they will take. To move pipe work, you need to cut back the pipe and re-install the relevant connections, this will require you to isolate the water, this would probably take maximum an hour. The moving of the plug socket, will require you to isolate the power, chasing the cable supplying to the socket back to the new position and you’ll need to re-install the socket mounting box, wire up the face place, this would probably take maximum one hour and a half. The removal of the wooden support 30 minutes. Altogether it’ll cost £270 for 3 hours labour at £90 an hour."
