Roof tiles slightly apart

[Tornado123]

Hi Guys,

Whilst sorting another job out, I noticed that the roof tiles on my porch have separated and I’m guessing what I am looking at is the felt membrane. Whats the best thing to do here? Instead of getting a roofer out to re tile can I fill with mortar or a type of sealant?

Is the tile overlapping by about 1cm or I am looking at it wrong. If so you are relying on the membrane to keep water out.

It’s not overlapping. The tiles have just separated a little, probably by a few mm

I meant the top tiles overlap of the one beneath. You shouldn't be able to see the membrane, you should just see the tile below

Ah I see what you mean now

It's the interlock on the tile channel you can see. Just needs nudged over a little.
