Noisy neighbour

We have a noisy neighbour - who lives the other side of an 8" wall from us !
He is constantly doing home "improvements"
Always has the workmen in - drilling, grinding and hammering
He spent the whole of last year - "renovating" his livimg room - before deeming us worthy of telling us - that he had tried to catch us in - to apologise for the noise !
It has now started AGAIN - Drilling and hammering (from before 9am to after 6pm)
There must be some law to prevent this - especially with Christmas coming up ??

We have new neighbours and they are living elsewhere whilst workmen live in the house to completely renovate it. They usually start at about 7.45 and it's now 7.25pm and they are still going.
So far at least one wall has been removed, walls have been stripped of decades old paper, carpets have been pulled up and 2 batrhrooms have been ripped out. It's only been 2 and a bit weeks so far and I'm already ready tired of drilling and hammering.I’m a Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on the eBay, Auctions, Car Boot & Jumble Sales, Boost Your Income, Praise, Vents & Warnings, Overseas Holidays & Travel Planning , UK Holidays, Days Out & Entertainments boards.
