- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.

Yes I figured as much from the "for 3 years ago", which is totally Danglish, "3 years ago" is enough.
Sorry, I just found it funny, that I figured a Dane wrote that from the first 3 words.๐
And yes professionals are really expensive, USD 100k to replace an entire roof doesn't even sound expensive, if it includes materials, it's sounds dirt cheap.
Edit I just checked prices, and apparently you can get a new roof for a 100m2 house approximately 1000 ft2, for about USD 10000.
You're out by a factor of 10 if you think a new roof is 100k
Yes, The offer my neighbor got must include rebuilding the construction or something.

You can't get a professional to replace your roof for 10kยฃ
Depends a lot on what type of roof you have. Comp shingle is pretty cheap.
In Denmark, the cost equivalent of a roof replacement is 100k UK pounds? That price in the US is so high it shocks the conscience unless you're talking about a mansion or doing some special kind of roof material like slate and hiring only engineers with advanced degrees as laborers.
I think I specified USD = US dollar, but that is cheap, our neighbor got an offer of USD 160000 for a house of about 180m2. That was with ceramic tiles, but afaik it's not that much cheaper even if you chose cheaper materials, I think the cheapest was about USD 120000.
Edit
I have been misinformed, I looked up prices and you can get a new roof for a 100m2 house approximately 1000 ft2, for about USD 10000.
