@@sarahmiller5632 That's depends of her financial situation. We just redone the roof of our house. Having 3 prices is the best. For each of them, let them talk and explain what they are proposing for their price. Make sure they place a protection (it's call a "membrane" in French, I am French) directly on the wood before the tiles. So you can compare between them. Some of them can be really dishonests on their prices. Do not gave them money (or a deposit) before the work is completely done (and well). This is my best advice, you pay them when the roof is finish. Its your condition.

On the roof: 1. For a serious roofer here in France you have normally a delay of between 6-8 months before the work starts. In some regions a year. 2. 12.6k for cleaning and minor repair is quite steep. 3. I have had redone my roof here in Luberon, might be 1/3 to half of yours. For your house I estimate 70-100k for a new roof at best. This is always one of the problems with old properties here in France, if the roof had not been renovated within the last 20 years, add 25% of your purchase price to get it done.

In the US a roofer would have sent a drone to take pics and measurements. Slate roofs are extremely expensive. No way to evaluate the repair proposal without knowing exactly what will be done. In any event, I would make sure to get references and also check with the building authority (I do not know what is the appropriate agency in France) for which permits are required for repairs of this type of roof, and whether you roofer is appropriately licensed and insured. (20+ yrs experience as insurance adjuster :)

I hope the fish make it-But if they don't, Another idea would be to make the water blue. I think that would be pretty too. Thank You . I so love watching having iced coffee wishing I could be there.

It might not be unreasonable depending on the techniques, material and rental of equipment, for example, not the mention the extremely high business contributions in France. However I agree with those who have suggested that it's always a good idea to get a quote from at least two professkonals and to go on recommendations from locals. No need to stick to professioanls working with native speakers of English, but a good idea to have Thomas or another trusted person to be predent and/or to go through the terms and conditons with you. (Agree entireme that the request to sign quickly is a potential red flag).

The idea of keeping fish in a fountain is all wrong-they need quiet water😢
