    BBC would suggest UK, so £20k. But also our walls are often solid rather than wood and plasterboard.

    Still sounds a lot unless they were taking over like half the house.

      £20,000 is more than $20,000, I’m quite surprised it cost that much though, I had my entire roof ripped off, in a storm and the cost came in at £7,000 to fix and that cost included electrical work since I wanted the attic wired for lighting again.

        I just used an online conversion calculator and $7000 gbp is Iess than $9500 USD. $9500 USD seems low for an entire roof replacement plus electrical work for my little corner of the States, (unless I hire Bob’s Roof Repair as his first client and get 5% off for leaving a 5-star review on Google before the work is completed).
