Just in the process of buying a new house and expect to have to carry out some roofing work. The existing roof from 1930 has no felt and a few missing tiles. I guess that stripping off the tiles, felting and fitting new battens is the way to go. However, do I need to consider new tiles or can I reuse the old ones?

Thanks in advance.
