What the job involves
Slipped and missing tiles are usually repaired by refixing existing tiles where they can be recovered, or replacing them with matching units from a merchant. The job itself is quick — the slower part is identifying the right matching tile, especially on older clay or concrete roofs where the original product may be discontinued.
If more than a handful of tiles are slipping at once, the underlying cause is usually nail-fatigue or a failed underlayment, which needs addressing at the same time.

How many missing tiles is too many for a repair?
As a rough guide, more than about five slipped or missing tiles across a single roof slope usually points to a systemic issue — ageing nails, perished underlay, or wind damage. At that point you’re in repair-vs-replace territory.
Can a roofer match tiles from a 30-year-old roof?
Often yes, from reclamation yards or by sourcing similar profiles from the same manufacturer. Exact colour match is harder once tiles weather. Expect a small visible difference on new units until they age in.
