Default Endpin fill and re-drill/ream

My endpin hole is reamed slightly crooked (and has been as long as I've owned this instrument) and while it hasn't posed a structural problem I'm going to get it fixed since I'm replacing the endpin anyway - hopefully the better fit does something to help the sound, but even if not I can't imagine it having a negative effect.

What I'd like to know is from the luthiers here or from those who've had this done, how long should this take/how big is the job? I don't have a long relationship with the luthier who will be doing the work so I just want to make sure they don't overcharge for the job, etc.

Thanks
