    When you bought the freehold did you not check what you were buying?

    or is that the wifes fault as well?

    easiest way to get access to the garage roof is buy the lease of the flat above.

    I think it is for sale.


    My wife was battling breast cancer for the second time during the move. Your sarcasm is not needed so don't bother yourself by continuing any further....

    This is rather like having a house with solar panel rights leased to the panel owners. They have the right to use your roof for the duration of the contract, unless you buy them out.

    I'd be wary of selling your garage's roof to the neighbours - they could fail to maintain it and cause a leak or collapse into your garage.

    OP could issue a Section 21 notice to seek repossession of his roof?
