Default Fair Price for this work

Hi all

Thinking of taking my bike to a shop at some stage to get these bits done.

What'dya reckon is a fair price for each item? Havent called round yet but just so I can start budgeting...some of it I can do myself but if its going to be pennies more by adding it another job I might as well get it done!

1. Carb strip/clean/balance
2. Valve clearances (check only)
3. Strip/clean/put in new springs for my forks
4. Fit Scotoiler (supplied)(thinking along with carb job)

Thanks
