You'll hate me for saying but I have three children under three and my partner is at sea 6 days a week therefore time is precious if I want a nice garden I have to do it before the kids get up or after they go to bed - I love gardening but I can't safely mow the lawn with three toddlers so I have to do it at odd times - I hate disturbing people but i hate an untidy weed ridden garden more. I have mentioned/apologisd to my neighbours and they are all so lovely about it as they appreciate that I am unable to do it with the tiddlers in the garden.

Usually there is a limit, and normally most jurisdictions say 7 am to 11 pm constitutes a "normal" time of day to conduct noisy operations. Most people won't get up that early to mow the lawn, or stay up that late, but if they can't stand the sun or heat, it may be they like doing it that early. Anyway, 8 am is legally not too early to disturb the peace and quiet, in most places, even on Sundays. Sorry about that. You can always check with your local police, but I'm afraid that you won't get too much sympathy.

Here in Florida if you wait till 10am it is to late to get the full lawn mowed before the heat gets to much. So in our neighbor hood the mowers are out as early a 7am. There is no rest for the weary until the afternoon nap when it is to hot to work in the yard.

If you are looking for a couple hours later, just ask the neighbor if they could comply. If not, it is not illegal to start at 8 AM and you will have to live with it.

I had neighbors complaining at 11 AM on a Saturday because of my hammering; as I already checked with the other neighbors who are day sleepers on what days they had off to do this. It was not my fault these other neighbors stayed up all night watching movies. You can't make everyone happy.

I don't think 8 a.m. is unreasonable. I'm happy that you can sleep in late on the weekend, many of us are trying to do our housechores that we can't get to during the week. If this family also has sports practice for the kids later in the a.m. then 8 a.m. is far better than 7 a.m.

Many cities have an ordinance that states when a professional gardner or a homeowner/resident can start using lawnmowers and power tools. Call your local zoning dept. When I do my lawn on weekends I do trimming and
raking until 9 or 10.

I have the same problem except here it starts at 7 am sometimes. The neighbors sometimes are out playing basketball at 7. I don't think there is much you can do, but you can at least talk to them and see if that helps.

it depends if he's your neighbour or not, bi laws say in Brisbane contractors or home owners can start mowing at 7am seven days a week . out of courtesy it should be after 10 am on the weekends
