Can't say I've noticed this before but has this tile that is sticking out in the valley slipped or was it just not cut properly? It's a 3 year old Barratt house.

Can't see that image either!
Slipped off batten.
Yeah, will this be covered by NHBC?
Up to 3yrs afaik.
Can you elaborate? Not knowing anything about roofs, I want to at least sound like I know what I'm talking about!
Well it looks like a lead valley? the lead appears poorly supported hence the ripples.
The cut tiles look like they are bedded onto the lead This is wrong for a start.
That aside, it doesn't look pointed
there is a sketch here that shows how it should be
