Using County Court bailiffs (or sometimes High Court Sheriffs) acting under a court order for possession is the ONLY legal way you can physically evict tenants from a property if they refuse to go voluntarily.Sometimes tenants will try to get you to delay and they can be very persuasive.

Approach The Court Of Law You will have to send a legal notice to your tenant asking him/her to pay the arrears of rent or else to vacate within a month. The tenant has to pay rent in the court once it is assessed by the court and in case he/she fails, it invites immediate eviction.

If the tenant refuses, you are permitted to send them a notice to agree or quit the property. The tenant refusing you access constitutes a breach in the lease agreement, so they could be evicted if they continue to deny access.

File for eviction with your local courthouse. Gather evidence. Come to the court hearing to prove your case. Win a writ of possession and have the tenant removed by the sheriff.
