When is the landlord going to let tenants know that in no way is it permitted, safe, good for the roof, or something they are going to tolerate? If the insurance company knew they were doing this, they wouldn't have insurance. That is if they even do have insurance. Very simply, you go on the roof and you get thrown out. A dozen kids in line ot rent behind you.
