Cracked roof tiles - rough cost estimation to replace?

[joncasey]

Hi all,

First post on the forum, I couldn't find another forum for roofing stuff.

I have a few cracked heavy looking tiles on the roof of my house, and wondered if there was a rough guide for how much they would cost to repair please?

Another question: Do roofers generally accept other "odd jobs" whilst up that high? (I'm thinking about replacing my security floodlight and don't have ladders myself)

thanks in advance.

How high is it? Might end up needing scaffolding or at least a tower.

Hard to say, it's a large detatched 1995 house but only on a lower roofed bit, I estimate about 15 foot

As long as it's not too steep then a roofer should manage without. I always just push tiles up to create a "ladder" to get to the broken tile. Not keen on crawler ladders.

Don't do much of it as it just isn't worth falling for 50 quid.
