slipped clay tile

[mpearce2000]

Hi - i have a slipped clay tile on a porch roof. I can't renail as i think I'd have to remove all the rows above. Picture attached. Is it possible to use a clip to put in place and anyone know where is get one from?

Thanks

If the roof is battened its just a matter of getting another tile with fixing lugs on it and hanging it back in place.

If they are nailed directly to sarking boards you should be able to turn the tiles above to nail it back in.

Just glue it in position with a suitable adhesive - you'll have to read the tubes, and have a mastic gun The lugs have been knocked off that tile that's why it slipped out
