My Ivy has ran wild, while I wans't looking over th last 5 years
Now that I notice it it has spread right up the side of the house and
across the roof tiles, is it safe or will it destroy the roof?

I doubt it will do any damage. Trying to pull it off will do a lot more
damage than leaving it. It may be keeping loose tiles in place and stopping
them falling off!

If you really want to get rid of it, cut it away without pulling. If that's
not a real option, the only way would be to spray it with glyphosate or some
other powerful weedkiller and let it die off. It would leave a mess for
quite some time...
