The flat below me was vacated last week.
I expect several months of noise from down there whilst they refurb the bathroom, kitchen and rewire.

At least the noise will be daytime only - they usually clock off at 4pm - and some days they wont be there at all.

Mez reported that the flat next to hers took far longer than that to do - might be next autumn before it is ready to re-let.
