Renovation noise

[ln1981]

Hi, just looking for a bit of advice with regards to what is an acceptable time for noise to start in the morning?
New neighbour is currently stripping and renovating their house (we are the adjoining property) and I have been woken this morning (again!) before 8am- it started at 7.30.
I appreciate that there is a lot of work needs doing and it’s still in the early stages, and that there will be lots of noise (and of course, they are entitled to do what they want with their house!) but I do feel likes it’s starting to become a bit of a piss-take now!

I did have a look at our council website but it only seemed to mention about building sites rather than residential properties having strict times. I should add, I’m not looking to make a formal complaint or anything but I would like to just let them know that it’s starting to take its toll-its been daily noise for 6 weeks,which I was expecting, just not from quite so bloody early in the morning!
Any advise/help would be greatly appreciated.
TIA

Not sure about home renovations, but I know when my lawn mowing company arrived at before 8am one morning! I rang their office and was told they can legally start from 7am.

Our neighbours are also renovating our house. The builders start at 7.30 each day and Saturdays too!

Hello OP....I think it varies by council.

Ours (south east) issues residential site licences for between 07.00-18.00 Mon-Fri and 09.00-13.00 Sat-Sun and public holidays (excluding Easter Sunday and Christmas day).

If you give the planning department a call they should be able to tell you the permitted working hours in your area. This applies to works that require planning permission, I'm not sure if these hours also apply to 'DIY'.

Sometimes in urban areas the hours of working are expressed as a condition in the application. Look for this. Failing that, try and speak to a planning officer. Often the worst it will be is 7-7. However when people diy and do it in the evening after work, or builders moonlight, they can work late into the evening. Check what your planning self thinks is reasonable.

Sorry - condition of the planning permission! Not application.

Maybe speak to them. I had a plasterer announcing he will come at 7:30. I asked them to be quiet till 8:30 for the neighbours. CF came in and immediately turned on loud radio and started banging. He got swiftly told off. Next time it was exactly the same 🙄
Your neigbours are probably not made up too tbh, but lots of people wouldn't tell the builders off. Or they tried nad later gave up. But if you speak to them, you could get the builder to do quiet jobs first if possible.

Thanks for all the replies-very appreciated. I don’t think they are having anything that requires planning permission. We have never had anything in writing certainly, but I will check with the planning department and see if they can give some guidance.
I’m just surprised that they can start so early!
@broughts - there’s been no contractors in on a weekend just some diy by the neighbours and friends. Thankfully that tends to be a bit quieter!

A few years ago in the apartment above us, directly over out head - someone tarted trying to smash down into our bedroom at 6.45am on a Sunday morning! That's what it sounded like anyway.

We never ever heard any noise normally... I ran upstairs in my PJs and was like WTF are you doing? A flooring contractor was laying laminate flooring. At 6.45am on a SUNDAY.

I must have looked a bit crazed because he agreed to do nothing until 8am and then start in the sitting room rather than the bedroom corner directly over our bed!

Renovating my house, the builders liked to start early. Like 8am. The main contractor was a dream but one of his subbies would come in and whack the radio up FULL BLAST AND THEN SHOUT OVER IT. Gave me the rage.
