I have just painted the small area of my balcony white, from a dirty brown. Now I’ve been informed that white isn’t acceptable and it needs to go, as it’s not aesthetically pleasing to the building? It’s a block of 4 properties but the rest look dismal, I thought they would be happy I’m looking after it and making it better than it was, I don’t know where I stand though i don’t to fall out with neighbours after being there a short time.

Balconies are common elements and cannot be altered in any way w/o explicit permission of the communitie's President. Try to come to an understanding.

Well just inform them its the undercoat and your waiting for it to weather, or if it is offending to other people can the community supply the appropriate colour paint match, you could also add that you are looking at a toldo and washing line in the future, just like the other neighbours, don't be bullied, give them a run for the money and if at the end of the day you have to change, then do it, rules are rules, but I must say it does look a lot better. good luck.
