Construction workers don't usually work at night

If the noise will interrupt daytime work they will. Or if its close to the deadline and the GC is going to owe a ton of money for being late. Or they have to do some core drills above an occupied floor.

The rare part would be alone and not part of a crew, and more telling, being near the front desk. Construction in a building with a front desk is usually forced to go through the freight entrance only.
