Default repairing cement roof verges

just found several lumps of cement (about 4x2x2 inch) which have fallen out
of the verges
of my tiled roof.... leaving an 18inch long gap...
upon closer inspection I see there are a few cracks in the mortar
generally along the verge... what the easiest way to repair ...
I though of re-mortaring where there are gaps and then hoped to paint
something over the
rest to hold it in place (like on of those elastic rubber roof paints)....

Would this be anygood? I don't much fancy raking out the whole of the verges
and remortaring?
Is there a better/simpler diy method? I though of those plastic caps... a
neighbour had them done...
but it seemed to involve a lot of work with the builders taking off tiles,
cutting tiles etc.
