Construction Noise in my Building - Rights?

Dear Sir or Madame:

I live in a Building in London Ontario. Recently they have started jackhammering into the concrete in every unit because they want to replace the electrical heating with something more efficient. The noise is alarmingly loud and they refuse to knock on my door and give me warning so that I can vacate the building when the jackhammers start up.

The decent thing to have done would have been to give the tenants 2 or 3 months notice, advising them of the loud impending noise and people could have given their notice and moved if they so chose.

Have I any rights in this situation? Have I grounds sto move without giving them 60 days notice.

Thank you for any help you can give in this matter.
