If you are carrying out works on your flat, even if you're just drilling a hole to hang a picture, you should refer to the estate rules regarding works and noise. This has come up (again) because a resident (edit: actually, more than one it seems) decided that the Easter weekend would be a really good time to do some work in their flat. The disturbance from that work resulted in quite a few complaints from those who had been hoping for a quiet Easter spent in their homes.
The incident prompted the estate office to post the following notice ... which is mostly right, except it should make clear that bank holidays should be treated in the same way as weekends. You can find the rules explained on the Housekeeping page of the blog (see the tab at the top or
click here). Here is the notice from the BEO:

The following two Sundays were also blighted by drilling, presumably by the same happy DIY-er. Each time it started at midday and last Sunday it was still going when I came back to my flat at 6.30 pm. Fine if you're in a detached house, but totally unacceptable in a block of flats!
