How much would it cost to repair the flashing around my chimney.UK only?

The flashing has moved away from chimney and now every time it rains we get a small trickle down the chimney breast in the attic.
how much do you think we should pay for a job like this?
I’m asking because we have’nt clue and last year we were ripped off by a roofing company, ( 3 lose slates. 10 mins work. £180). and being on a very restricted income. I need to know if the quotes are fair.
OMG is that £’s.
if thats the case I’ll risk my neck and get up there my self

what you have to remember is a genuine builder carries liability insurance …and nobody is allowed on roofs without it …mine is for £10.000.000…whoever does the job will need a roof ladder …one that hooks over the ridge ..the actual time to do it is not much more than 30 minutes ,,,the cover flashing has moved away ..there are soakers under the tiles to remove most water ..to hold the flashing in position either use lead plugs or go to a roofing centre and buy a bag of stainless steel clips ..they are very good ..should not cost more than £150
