[I do not think this is seriously about a roof renovation. The purpose of the thread was to mention a product, i.e. unauthorized advertising. This was removed, the user warned, no further reactions since then.
Thread closed.]
Thread reopened after consultation with OP.
To the matter:
Replacing a 25-year-old intact roof is most likely nonsensical both energetically and cost-wise. If that is the intention, one must first measure the consumption present and, above all, what can actually be saved at the roof; this in turn must be set in relation to the new costs – for this, an expert is needed.
If the tiles are only dirty, they can be cleaned and resealed – possibly a different color can also be obtained; all this costs significantly less than a complete roof replacement.
If the tiles look so far removed from your taste that cleaning/sealing is out of the question, then the cost issue is obviously irrelevant – then just get three offers from roofers in the area and have them advise you on further (reasonable) measures.
Best regards Dirk Grafe
