Can anyone recommend someone who can fix a leaky roof?

Kim from South Waikato District

Hi everyone
After the last big rain we had last week part of my roof fell onto my bed.
It is rotted and the bats are rotted. Have included pics.
Can anyone recommend a competitively priced tradie to fix leaky roof? It looks like one small section of the roof.
Cheers
Kim
