Roof repair

Hi
A few tiles blew off
Roofer inspected - no movement on other tiles. No other significant signs of damage, just general weathering wear and tear externally.
Small cracks in the mortar of the verge, valley and above lead flashing.
£420
What questions should we ask the roofer, perhaps....
What materials are used ie type of tile?
Is scaffolding required? though there is ease of access as it is a bungalow.
Are you insured, including general liability (damage to property)?
How is waste been disposed?
Is it yourself doing the work or a subcontractor?
Is there any hidden costs?
I suppose when work is started areas of concern could be uncovered!

Maybe best to ask the roofer and get a quote rather than a estimate0
