Like any issue with a building like this it should really be all 4. If there is a roof issue all 4 have to pay even although the roof theoretically is only for the top 2 flats.

Have you asked the other 3 flat owners yet?

As Fi says, ask everyone, but, i don't think that all 4 will have to pay for it's removal as some may consider it to "look" ok.
I'd expect you'd have a far better chance of making everyone pay if there was actual damage being caused

well thats just it it had come up in the home report that was done on the flat next door to me saying it may be a problem and as i plan on selling my flat this year then it could be a major prob with that its also growing right round my upstairs naubours flat window :O

You obviously want to get it sorted more than the others for your selling purposes and may end up doing it anyway to enhance your sale, so, best be quick in contacting the other owners as soon as possible to get a quick fix or at least know where you stand
