You may wish to approach them and let them know that this is interfering with your peaceful enjoyment of your lot. You may help them get familiar with the by-laws of your property regarding noise levels – sometimes they may just not be aware of the rules.

If you wish to make this formal, you would have to submit a Form 1 to your body corporate and take their help to resolve any disputes. Your body corporate manager can help you with further details.
