Advantage is that you will have a nice router for other jobs.

Personally, I would and did buy the router.

Thanks, I will compare the cost of hiring one against the
cost/availability of getting someone in but there's no point in me
shelling out 160 quid for a 1/2" router as I would probably never use it
again. I've used my 1/4" one about twice in the last 3 or 4 years (to
make some rather spiffy-looking cupboards) and it is man enough for any
of the routing jobs I'm ever likely to tackle other than worktops. And
I'm not planning on installing another kitchen for at least 10 more
years!

OK, so given all of this, getting a person to do it is likely to be
the most cost effective.
