Thank you - suspected the answer might be it depends .
Fwiw they do have to ‘enter’ the balcony.
Asked the foreman to get his lads to knock on the front door the next time they need to work on it to give us a bit of notice on the basis of 10 week old baby and freaked out* mum. They said they would - will believe it when I see it :)
* more like slightly irked - to be fair

Depends whether the balcony is in fact part of the premises demised by the lease - it's likely it is but not guaranteed and may not include the structure of the balcony - and if it is then the landlord's rights of access and the scope of the landlord's repairing obligations depend on the terms of the lease. Without a copy of the lease it's not possible to answer the question.
