4. At one apartment complex I lived in, they did he remodeling every day
They use *ahem* "undocumented" labor and let them live (12 to a room) in one of the efficiency apartments.

All that is unsavory but what really ticked me off is that they started putting up siding on my apartment, on my bedroom wall, at 7 am on a SUNDAY morning. I managed to find the one person who spoke English, I guess the foreman, and screamed at him. And then I went and complained to the apartment manager the next day.
That is just uncalled-for. Needless to say, I moved.

5. Depends on the contract their company has.
Also whether they are unionised or not.

7. They sometimes do, yes
Unlike selling liquor, there's no law against it.


Though, yuck, hammering at 7am is not a good way to do. What about noise ordinances in that case?
