    Exactly. If I’m working nights and need to use power tools in my home? No problem. In an apartment? Good luck

      Unless you’re living way out on a farm a mile away from your neighbors, even if you live in a detached home in a suburb, you still have to respect noise bylaws. Especially with power tools.

        a farm a mile away

        That is the dream for many. Lots of farm land is being turned into housing in this way.

      what? do you think people in apartments never use power tools?

      just keep it between 10 in the morning and 10 in the evening and you’re fine.

        I specifically mentioned working nights… I guess I could’ve been more clear that the power tools are for work.

        I have a small shop set up in my basement that allows after-hours work without disturbing the neighbours (two walls with 10ft+ between them will beat any apartment wall assembly for sound transmission), within reason for the noise I’m making of course.
