As far as the roof is concerned, have you thought about sprayed foam

cheaper than having a re-roof and there's the benefit of insulation and
a permanent fix for the tiles.

We have that here on a rented place (that we might end up buying one

Seems fine, *but* almost anyone I mention it to sucks their teeth and
says 'ooh the damp gets into the joists'.

Any first hand experiences, good or bad?
