I would think that being allowed to paint the back of their shed would
also perserve it as it is in bad need of paint. I don't think it is
fair that I have to look at it, when they do not. My back yard is
beautifully maintained, and I take pride in it.

I don't see this as being pushy, but then again, I may be wrong.

It seems disrespectful to me, as I would never do this to a neighbor.

Thanks everyone for all the responses. Much appreciated.

How do you know it's a shared "fence"? Unless it's exactly on the
property line, you can't really tell.

In situations like this, it's always best to ask.

I agree with you. Bad relations with neighbors can be a nightmare,
especially when it can be avoided with something as simple as asking
before doing. Personally, I wouldn't care that much if somebody painted
the back of my shed without asking, but I would file them away as a
little pushy somewhere in the back of my mind.
