Cracked roof tiles
Page 1 of 1
Save the hassle and just buy replacements and change them yourself.
If you don't have any roof tiles left over from when they built the house then go and buy what you need to replace the cracked tiles plus another 10 - 15. Just with expansion and contraction as well as some hairline cracks that may get worse as time goes by let alone having any tradies up there servicing anything on the roof, you will get more cracking.
I used to tell clients of mine to do the same with any ceramic tiles when we did bathroom renos.

We will get Boral to inspect the rest of the roof, but I guess my concerns are: will the inspector be honest if he finds many cracked tiles? And if there are cracked tiles there too, I would assume there is a fault in the batch of tiles - who would be liable for replacing them, and would the tiles under the solar panels also need replacing? We are also in contact with the builder who suggested we contact Boral in the first instance.

Thanks Stewie, we’ll see what Boral and the home builder say.
Did you get a response?
Is so common and just way to much room for errors.
