Our roof has a couple of slates missing, a few slipped and when the rain is in a certain direction it comes through the bedroom ceiling.
I have been quoted £2500 for sorting the roof (remove slates, re-felt, put slates back). Should I be able to get away with a bodge here? Given that rain is coming in would it suffice to replace the missing slates, shove the rest back into place and do something to prevent them slipping about in future winds?
And if I get the roof done what should I expect to pay extra to get a dormer put in and make the loft into a proper room? The loft has a stairway and is boarded out but I think it was a DIY job as when we bought it it the sellers weren't allowed to describe it as a bedroom.
