Have you installed this set up before - especially the database? How long did it take?
Why is the original firm not doing this - did the client and them have a disagreement?
The phase "a little modification" is danagerous - what if the client now expects you 
to fix all bugs until the app
works!! Can they show you the app working correctly on a staging server first? :-)

Bottom line ... You need a clearer scope of work or just bill hourly.

FYI On straightforward installs we usually figure a day to iron out all problems. This 
is where we have written the
code. On someone else's code who knows what will need "adjusting"?

Good luck
