Roof tile repair?

theonejat · 6 Jun 2014 at 13:01

Having to get someone out (trusted company I'm led to believe) to fix a slipped roof tile on my roof. Just wondering what the approx cost SHOULD be on such a job? Don't want to be fleeced. Just one roof tile that has slipped that need putting back/replacing.

Help is much appreciated!

Thanks for the replies. I've looked in the loft and can not see any holes or gaps, this leads me to believe it has some sort of felt underlay?

We are forecast bad weather this weekend, the tile has slipped approx 6", think any lasting damaged will be done?

Thanks all. This company have not shown yet. Just had a check in the loft and seems to be ok for now even though its been showering.

One tile slipping is not really an emergency in my books so I certainly wouldn't want to be paying any emergency call out charge.

You just want a local trusted roofer to come and fix it when he can fit you in for a standard price.

My worry was that it's supposed to lash it down for the next few days. Do you have any experience of the the roof tiles slipping? Think one slipped tile is enough to cause a major leak? Like I said above I can't see any daylight from the loft etc.
