[Closed] New neighbours renovating - is this inconsiderate?

08:40 this morning.

They've still not knocked on and said anything.

I've lived here for 21 years and am not using power tools early in the morning.
They should make the move. I'm not being petty about it. I'm just researching
their character and attitude.

To date, I'm disappointed.

[i]Ahhhhhh. A voice of reason.[/i]

That's me all over. Seems to be a rare attribute on this site.
If I was the noisy neighbour I'd be knocking on the OP's door & saying 'Hi, wev'e just moved in & are stuck for time to get this job sorted so we WILL be making a bit of a racket over the next few days. Me & the Mrs both work shifts & Bank Holidays don't count. Sorry for any inconvenience & we'll be as quick as possible'
But that's just me. ๐Ÿ˜†

Those that think this is acceptable , what time do you consider unacceptable ? Or do you think that literally any time is OK . I'm totally in agreement with the OP , some sort of contact and dialogue should have been initiated by the new neighbour but to just crack on and do it is downright rude IMO .

OP when ypure done with the rightepus indignation go and talk to them unless of course youre just enjoying the opportunity to whinge. which it sounds like. None of us have to spend the next 10-20 years living next door to them - you do.

What you need to do is wire up a couple of mains smoke alarms that are set to go off constantly then go away on holiday without leaving any contact details. Another STWer can tell you how bad that is.

Thestabiliser. Righteous indignation?

Not really.

I'd just like to know when I'm going to be woken up.
Then I'd know what time to go to bed.
I'm flexible if the communication is sound.
