Roof repairs - approximate cost

I need 4 roof tiles fixed and the flashing on the roof redone. How much is this likely to cost, as I don't want to claim of my insurance if it is not a huge amount... I live in south belfast in a semi detached

  • Unless the damage has been caused by a storm your insurance is unlikley to cover it,its more likely general wear and tear.Hard for someone to give a price especialy for the flashing part without seeing it.PM me if you need a number of a roofer that could take a look.

    All sorts of reasons there might be a hole in the roof. My parents claimed for a hole caused by, I kid you not, a tennis ball. Went up in the air, and back down on the roof and straight through a 1" thick tile. If it had been someone else I wouldn't have believed it. Ended up being a £1100 job, and the insurance paid out on it as accidental damage.
