Yes, including change of carporch and kitchen roof.
Around 25k for hacking and changing roof.

Nothing much I guess, pretty satisfied with the efficiency, quality, and cost. Balanced.

You've got to find the right contractor. Yeap, the cost is around RM150-200 per day depending on the skill and experience level of the workers.

Yeap, quite reasonable market price.
