Default Has my flashing been done OK?`

I've just had the flashing replaced on a chimney and would appreciate views
on the work, as I'm a bit nervous about what I've seen. (I know this is a
DIY group, but this was too specialised a job for me.)


This photo:

shows a badly replaced and broken tile. There's a large gap where I think
rain can blow in under the tile.



This photo:

also shows a badly replaced tile. Again, there's a large gap where I think
rain can blow in under the tile.



In the bottom left of this photo:

you can see a black opening. Although you can't tell from the photo, water
would directly run into the hole. If there's suitable leadwork behind the
hole, I'd guess it's OK, but I can't tell. Is this likely to be a problem?



Views appreciated.
