It would be prudent to make sure the adjustments are resolved professionally.
There no way you need a rewire, some good testing and visual inspection will clearly indicate the scope of works.
Most of those joins can be crimped and sheathed
It's important that he checks each circuit and confirms that there's no instances of the live end (as the kitchen) laying idol.
The last spark in to a property (not the PIR report) is responsible for the property complying with certain newer standards. The guy can't issue a cert at the end of works to 17th edition without adding in safety measures and earth bonding to water and gas pipes.
That will add to the cost and time.
You should now be clear enough to get the PIR done, with you showing the guy all your 'discoveries'. He then produces a report and you farm it out to him + 1 or 2 others.
Compare the costs, and take it from there.
If in doubt, post again- The PIR could make interesting reading.
