As a contractor I will say this..

Most cities have their own ordinances for when it is permissible to start making construction noises. Hate to say, but 7am is normal start times for most construction.

Sidewalks are tricky, especially in winter months where it gets cold and wet. Sidewalks are sometimes the only stable ground to set up staging. Is there no sidewalk in front of the house they are building?

As for leaning stuff up against your house. That is an absolute no no. You have a complaint there. None of the contractors stuff should be on your property whatsoever.
