AHHH, Thumper and Zooser you are correct: the owners should be taking responsibility (hence my call to the owners at shul), but they don’t. Contractors should adhere to rules but they have many bosses…the city/the owners and they are trying to survive…Most don’t care if the neighbors care or not.

When we were having the outside of our home painted last summer our neighbor’s kids were in the pool all day/every day. The kids had one noise level: screaming. We said nothing…they will grow and hopefully shut up.

I did give out a lot of tylenol for headaches to the painters.
