Each municipality sets its own rules. In Norristown (Chapter 215), construction noise is prohibited 7:30 p.m. to 7:00 a.m. weekdays and 8:00 p.m. to 9:00 a.m. weekends. Lower Merion Township uses decibel limits with a daytime period of 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. and nighttime 8 p.m. to 8 a.m. Statewide, 18 Pa.C.S. §5503 (disorderly conduct) backstops local enforcement.
