Hotel renovation, work carried out on weekends? contractors invovled should be known to the public?

When a hotel is closed for renovation, are they actually allowed to carry out the renovation work on saturdays and sundays? What are the days and time that they are actually allowed to carry out the work?





When hotels are carrying out renovation / refurbishment, are they supposed to put up a sign board indicating the contractor, contact numbers, etc? If not, whom should we report to? If residence around the neighbourhood encounter some problems, e.g. fire alarm of the hotel ringing non-stop, who should the the residence contact?Hotel renovation, work carried out on weekends? contractors invovled should be known to the public?
In the US, they're almost certainly being paid bonuses to work weekends. Because the hotel wants the job done as fast as possible. Depending on the area they're in, they are probably banned from doing loud work like jackhammering in the night, but there's no reason at all that quieter work can't go on 24/7. Although usually the work is no more than 12 hours a day.





When the job site is open, there will be some sort of office/trailer onsite with a person who works for the general contractor. If an alarm goes off at night though, you may have to wait until morning to have it dealt with... the police don't have the authority to go in there and smash things up just to shut them up. Since it's a renovation job though, the hotel fire alarms should already be tied to a security company and/or the local fire station, who should come out and investigate any alarms.Hotel renovation, work carried out on weekends? contractors invovled should be known to the public?
only if your area has noise ordinances, then you can call the police non-emergency number in your town. otherwise, they can work anytime of the day or night. Hotels are usually in areas zoned commercial, not residential. Call your city hall and inquire with them..
IF I had a nonstop fire alarm at a building near where I live, I would call the Police!
