Householder's speak for builder & roofer's speak

How would you translate the phrase, "To remove 10 x 6 roof tiles above area were [sic] leak is showing,"

It relates to an investment property owned by my wife which is rented out through a letting agency.


Thanks.

    Its the tile size. Standard concrete & clays are 10.5" x 6.5" but are commonly referred to as 10 x 6's.( used to be a director of a building company and we did a lot of roofing)

    Edited to add. What I would be more interested in is the fact tat they are removing above where the leak shows which may be a red herring, leaks have a funny way of travelling around under tiles and above felt and the water may be getting in, in a completely different area!!
