Construction hours in Beloit, WI — sometimes called construction noise rules or contractor work-hour ordinances — set when contractors can run power tools, hammers, and heavy equipment.
Rock County has no countywide construction-hours limit. Cities and towns set their own daytime windows. Janesville does restrict aircraft used for construction, barring helicopter or aircraft construction work between 8:00 p.m. and 8:00 a.m.
No Rock County ordinance fixes general construction start and stop times; that is a municipal decision left to Janesville, Beloit, and the towns. Janesville's code does not publish a blanket construction-hours cutoff for ordinary work, but section 9.42.025 specifically prohibits helicopter or other aircraft use for construction purposes anywhere in the City between 8:00 p.m. and 8:00 a.m. each night, except emergencies. Routine construction noise otherwise falls under Janesville's general 'unnecessary and annoying noise' rule and the state disorderly-conduct statute. Confirm exact hours with your local building or clerk office.
Violating Janesville's disturbing-the-peace chapter draws a municipal forfeiture, generally $25 to $500 plus costs. Persistent daytime disturbance can also invite a disorderly-conduct citation.
