Limit domestic construction working hours

Petition Details

(The Ctrl of Pollution Act 1974 gives Env Health powers to control noise on construction & demolition sites.Permitted hrs of work when noise can be audible at a construction site boundary:Mon-Fri 8am-6pm Sat 8am-1pm) Domestically a neighbour can drill,bang on an adjoining wall all night,no law

Additional Information

I want to make the law apply to domestic construction noise pollution, it shouldn't just apply to construction sites. This should apply to disturbing noise domestically. I have had to endure (for a year so far) drilling & banging up until 11pm, all day Sunday at times.
When your sleep and peace is impacted it causes real stress.The police informed me that my neighbour can drill & bang on my adjoining wall all night, there is no law. This surely just isn't healthy
