Construction hours in Florin, CA — sometimes called construction noise rules or contractor work-hour ordinances — set when contractors can run power tools, hammers, and heavy equipment.
Sacramento County Code §6.68.090(e) exempts construction noise from the residential decibel limits provided work does not take place between 8 p.m. and 6 a.m. on weekdays, with tighter weekend restrictions. The EMD Noise Control Program confirms property-maintenance and similar activities are allowed 6 a.m.-8 p.m. weekdays and 7 a.m.-8 p.m. weekends.
Because Florin is unincorporated Sacramento County, contractors follow the §6.68.090 exemption window. Routine construction is permitted 6 a.m.-8 p.m. Monday through Friday; weekend hours are 7 a.m.-8 p.m. on Saturday and Sunday. Outside those windows, construction must comply with the 55 dBA day / 50 dBA night residential standard or stop. Public-works and unavoidable repair work may obtain authorization for extended hours. Note these exemption hours also apply to leaf blowers and other property-maintenance noise sources.
Running power tools or other audible construction outside the exemption window without authorization is a Chapter 6.68 violation - typically cited as an infraction or administrative penalty by Sacramento County Code Enforcement; repeated violations escalate to misdemeanor charges under §6.68.140.
