Currently, even in Cali a solar system ranges at about $4-5 per watt. The cost to redo a roof depends on the size but almost certainly it would be cheaper than the extra $2.65-3.65 watt left over on using a conventional system and less long-term liability to homeowner to replace a roof and do conventional solar.
Commonest UK size for solar is currently 3-4kWp, which is plenty for household independence, and above 5 or 6 rare. Earlier systems were smaller as panels were costly. I think somewhere around 5 is the point an installation is considered commercial rather than domestic making larger even less attractive.
Exorbitant or not it pays based on UK electric prices and feed in tariffs.
No idea of current prices, and Tesla are available here too. The couple of times I've seen solar tiles in situ (like I say, not common here), have been far more like the last photo than the first which stands out.
First one that cropped up in search: http://www.reuk.co.uk/wordpress/solar/solar-roof-tiles/
In the UK, mounting solar on top of the tiles is far more common as roofs are rarely replaced.
