Best way to refit slipped roof tiles

I’ve got a few loose ones near the edge. Can I sort them myself or is this one of those jobs best left to a roofer?

"if you feel safe and confident on a ladder and can reach them off of the ladder give it a go! make sure someone is footing your ladder at all time, lift the tiles above if its plain tiles and slide the new/slipped tile in. if theyre bigger tiles push the ones above up then slide them down afterwards.

if you cant reach them off a ladder its best to leave to a professional."
