@@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 :)

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.
