Hi, I had a broken tile (see below photo - the tile nearest the top of valley) which had slipped so my Dad pushed it back in under the ridge tile and put mortar underneath it to hold it in place. I thought this was fine until i came across info on internet saying you shouldn't put mortar directly onto lead due to lead being prone to thermal movement and that the mortar can prevent it expanding/contracting leading to the lead cracking.
I'm a bit worried now and wondering if this will be a problem (hoping not due to it only being 1 tile and not the whole lot down the valley).
Can anyone put my mind at rest?
Can try to take a photo tomorrow of the tile now that its been cemented in.
Thanks.
