Building work - how to NOT annoy the neighbours?

[IsThereAnyChocolateLeft]

Starting extension soon and don't want to pee off the neighbours...
Good thing is that we have a decent size drive so Skip and several builder's vans can use it but DH and I will have to park on the road, in front of other people's houses.

The only neighbour will could be really bothered by the actual building work actually lives in a different road but his garden runs alongside mine, with our houses at opposite ends.
He is a very keen gardener so is often outside.
Would I be unreasonable to ask builders not to have radio on if they see neighbour in his garden?

I thought about -
Putting a note thru door of all neighbours in our road, apologising for parking and adding my phone number . Also ask if anyone goes away, can I use their drive for my car? (too cheeky?)
Note for adjoining neighbour re start date and apologising in advance for any disruption. Include elevation plans of extension (Permitted development so he won't have been notified by council) plus maybe a bottle of wine?

Or should I just think Stuff It?

@Mummyshark2018
I probably phrased that badly.
Adjoining neighbour means our gardens run along side each other, but our house lies at the southern end, his lies at the northern end.
Our houses are actually in different roads and about 30 metres away from each other.
There is no party wall

You don't need to consult neighbours for permitted development as it would only cover small extensions. It's only large ones that need consultation.

As for keeping the dust only on your own property and off veg, do you not wash the veg? It will survive.

People need to learn some tolerance.

@AvocadosBeforeMortgages I’m not suggesting they would be happy about it - but I do definitely wonder what you think OP can do. Beyond the usual measures, how on earth is she supposed to control the dust?

That's good OP.
@soakedat3 Our extension came under the permitted development neighbour consultation scheme and we're currently finishing off a 6x6m extension so not exactly small imo. Best people check local planning portals and not run the risk of an adjoining neighbour objecting down the line. Ours did when we consulted with them and it cost almost 1k to get a party wall agreement drawn up.

Yes, I wash my veg, but it can't remove everything, and things like soft fruit don't take kindly to scrubbing, and lettuce can't be cooked.

Many people grow their own because they want organic food with known ingredients; building dust does not exactly tally with that. Would you want to eat food that had been covered in unknown and possibly toxic dust?

No idea what methods are used to keep dust in one place - but then I've never organised a building project that would create it, so I've never needed to find out.
