I live in the ground floor flat, and my neighbours on the 1st floor flat - above them there is the roof.
We are both leaseholders of our separate flats, and by contract the ownership of the roof belongs to them.
The roof has multiple holes, and due to a recent storm tens of tiles have slipped down causing enough damage that when it rains, it rains heavily into my flat, as well as theirs.
I spoke to them and as they are planning to move out at some point in the future, they refuse to carry out any maintenance work. We are paying into an insurance that covers repairs, but they would have to pay up to £2000 of extra, which they refuse to do also.
I am extremely concerned by this situation and would like to know how to convince them to take care of repairing the roof?
