Roof repairs cover everything from a single slipped tile to a full ridge re-bedding. Because the fault types are so varied, prices swing more here than anywhere else on the roofline - a straightforward pointing repair might be £150 to £300, whereas a proper flashing rebuild around a chimney can climb past £900. The right first move is always a proper diagnosis, not a guess based on where the water shows up inside.
The commonest calls are slipped or missing tiles (usually £120-£280 including access), cracked ridge tiles (often the sign of failed mortar bedding, £300-£800 for a full re-bed), and lead flashing pulling away around chimneys or party walls (£400-£1,100 depending on length). Newer builds increasingly have dry-fix ridge systems that don't need mortar at all - if yours is being re-bedded and it's post-2015, ask whether dry-fix is a like-for-like option.
