As for leaning stuff up against your house. That is an absolute no no. You have a complaint there. None of the contractors stuff should be on your property whatsoever.
Yep. 7am is the rule mon-fri. Not much I can do about that but I don't have to like.it.


There is sidewalk in front of the house they are building but about half of it is covered with debris and raw materials and they have it fenced off so the fence it's self is what often ends up on the sidewalk in front of my house or leaning against it.
