I have a stone built house with a (slightly leaking) slate roof that I

A couple of slates have moved but generally the wood etc. seems to be in
good nick.

Once I get the leaks sorted I'm thinking of doing something like this:

Does anyone have any experience of it please?

It seems a bit expensive, but looks like it could/should be a do it once

professional only job? Recommended suppliers?

TIA
