Power tools next door at 8.15am on Bank Holiday Sunday? AIBU.

[Sibsmum]

I am sitting in my lounge quietly seething that I have been woken up at 8.15am on the Bank Holiday weekend by the use of power tools next door.
They are having a car porch put up and the noise is associated with that. So drilling and cutting. Very loud, whole street must be aware.
They have form for early morning weekend work. A few weeks ago it was plaster being taken off the table end with hammer and chissels.
I think the builders working for them must be doing the work when they're not doing other contract jobs, so fitting them in as and when.
Obviously, I am already awake how, but what would you do?
Should I put up and shut up or would you say something about how inconsiderate it is, without warning, to do that?

Bank holiday Sunday isn't a thing.

Also, it's just not that big a deal, honestly. They have to get their work done when they're home, so that is a weekend. Meh.

Before 9am on a Sunday is unreasonable. But why haven't you spoken to them before now?

Hmmm it's maybe a tad early for a weekend, but tbh, most people I know are up before 8am every day, so i don't know. Depends how loud it is. If it woke you up but isn't otherwise ruining your day, it wouldn't especially bother me at 8.15 am. If it's so loud you can't enjoy your morning though, yes, I'd probably be a bit put out, but if they're having work done, it's going to make noise. Hopefully not too much.

I would have held off until 9am if I had work to do. But night time hours are 11pm to 7am so there is really nothing you can do about it.

Most of the people who are likely to think you're being reasonable are probably still asleep, OP.

Personally, I think loud noise before 9am on a Sunday is antisocial.

I think it's the lack of consideration that really annoys me. I have always let them know when we have work planned that might disturb them in any way.
If I had known that this was going to happen I would have probably had an earlier night and not watched a late film with DH.
I have been up for work at 6.30am every day this week, just fancied a lay in as it's the weekend.
Isn't Bank Holiday Sunday as such, just the Sunday of a Bank Holiday weekend, ok, I understand that much.

I think it's a bit early for power tools. Our house needed a bit of work done to it when we moved in and unfortunately long weekends were quite a good time to fit it in - DP, DF and I were all off work and it gave us more time to play with. But the earliest we started with noisy work was 10/11am.

Having said the above, even that

Having said the above - even that was not ok with one set of neighbours. They took us mentioning what we needed to do as us asking for permission and gave us a list of mid-week days and times that would work for them as they planned to be out...

I really wouldn't mind at all. Why is bank holiday Sunday special? 8.15 is hardly early, most people are up and getting on with their day by then.

I think any Sunday makes it unreasonable.

@nosswith

I think any Sunday makes it unreasonable.

I think they went out of the door with Sunday opening

Sunday is no longer different to any other day

It would annoy me, Sunday is my only lie in. I'm often awake by then but I dont want to be disturbed. I dont think its unusual to feel like that either. In fact our council website says that d.i.y noise should be between 10-5 on a Sunday and if it large loud work like building a house or conservatory not at all on a Sunday so I don't think you are the only person that wants a bit of peace on a Sunday morning.

Noise before 9am on a Sunday is very antisocial
