I need to SCREAM

SO!!! The rental house sold to a private buyer and now on a 12 year old home they are Renovating.
Our front doors are about 12' apart give or take a few feet, more like give. They hired a flooring guy
cutting tile at their front door literally feet from my bedroom window and it is quite disturbing to my wife
and I since we both work graveyard shift. Is their any wiggle room in our covenants to declare this a nuisance
and force them to either cut their tiles in the backyard or inside the garage to baffle the noise.

The miserable farging cork sucker even had the nerve to cut tiles at 9am on a Sunday morning.
County code says no construction work on Sundays but the PM said that don't apply to homeowners
This has been ongoing for more than 8 calendar days. I've seen tile crews work, 2 days tops
not 9 and certainly not hours on end.

I do some wood working myself, I do so inside my garage and usually between 11am to 4pm
did I mention inside my garage!

I agree with Shelia.

TALK TO THE WORKERS.

I've found that if you approach construction workers, most are more than willing to do what they can.

Keep in mind that a water supply might be the main reason they are doing it at the front.

Time in set-up, take-down and distance from actual room work is in may be the reason they are using the front vs. the back.

When our association revised our Rules and Regulations about six years ago, we looked at Federal, State and local ordinances that we determined should be in our revision. The local city had an ordinance that limits when construction can happen.

Quick question. Does your town have an online process where you can check on permits. If they are doing a lot of work is there any hint of anything other than floor and cabinets. Any piping or electrical changes needs a permit. I am looking at the angle of calling in the construction code official and have them get hit with un-permitted work. They need to be licensed. Some work homeowners and do but still need to go through permitting. Also noise rules in your town. It looks like there is. The police can be called. I know some Air BnB when you get there they have some big postings on noise and what is allowed and not and what time. They give a warning that neighbor can call the police. Meaning that this has happened already. I am just figuring out local town rules that can be used.

We had a person who worked grave yard that demanded we not mow the grass until evenings. That went nowhere quick.

And the landscapers come by once a month with a leaf blower and trimmers. That noise is brief, in and out like the breeze.
That is totally understandable and acceptable.

Operating saws and grinders literally beneath ones bedroom window for hours on end, totally different, not acceptable or understanding.
