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?
Which is better, plastic or metal guttering? I think metal will be better for painting and strength but is plastic more durable?
What's needed for a roof to meet Part L Building Regulations?
We have a fake brick chimney stack on our property which was apparently required for planning regulations when it was built twenty years ago. The pointing and flashing are now in a poor state of repair and we wondered how much it would cost to remove it as it serves no purpose. Also would we need to get planning permission to remove it?

How can I safely tell if my eaves felt needs to be replaced without getting on to the roof?
My neighbours have just had their English tile roof replaced. All the builds around here are metal framed houses, tiled roofs and then the inside sprayed with insulation. The neighbours have had theirs completely over hauled. Their roof now sits slightly higher than mine and a bonding gutter has been added between the properties, the roofers removed some of my tiles and the foam to tie the roofs in, i can now see daylight in my loft, does this matter or is it ok as long as the tiles have correct cover?
