To make matters worse they often work weekends too. Nothing like getting woken up by jackhammering at 7:00am on a Saturday after a night of drinking...

Had the exact samething going on across the street from me for the past year or so as well. Putting up a bunch of townhouse style condos. They seem to be a lot quieter and start later in the winter though. Can't say I blame them, I wouldn't want to be outside at 7 AM in -30..
I have left the house a few times after lunch and found a whole whack of them sitting alongside my house in the shade eating their lunch during the summer months. I usually don't say anything, the grass isn't down yet it is just dirt. But when I started finding garbage and pop bottles I kicked them off. They also like to use my front porch as a change room when it is raining and park their trucks in my driveway when they think nobody is home.
Also to add, one thing you can try is sleeping with some white noise. I am a very light sleeper, the littlest things used to bother me, even light in the room. But since I started using a fan it takes a lot more to wake me up. Give it a try, crank the fan as high as it goes and see what happens.
