Can it be done?
I have a 1920's house with a steep pitched roof, clay tiles torched at the back and no felt.
There are two broken tiles that need replacing, one of which is in a bitch of a position to access from on top of the roof without walking on the roof and risking more broken tiles. Both of tiles are easily accessible from inside the roof space.
Is it realistic to replace the broken tiles from the inside? The tiles have broken where the overlap the tile below so it would be a relatively short length to slide into the roof space. I could then slide a replacement into position.
Before i start potentially knackering my roof can anyone comment on my chances of success
Obviously at this age the tiles are potentially getting close to their end of life but the rest of the roof is sound and i don't want to replace the whole lot yet.
