Should I pay an extra charge to fix airlock?

Hi I recently paid for my boiler to be relocated as part of a new kitchen installation. There was an airlock which from memory took the plumbers roughly an hour to fix. Should I pay extra for this? Or should I expect for it to be a common thing that a plumber would account for in a fixed price? I wasn't notified about the extra cost at the time. It came up when he sent the bill weeks later.

No it should all be in with the price so the price quoted would be the price the Customer pays and the job should be left 100% finished

This does not require an additional amount because the agreed amount includes these secondary matters, which are common to occur during work
