The first step is for you to get an inexpensive sound power level (SPL) meter and take notes of the peak readings. You can then compare the dB levels you recorded against your local noise ordinance.

You can also just file for a Restraining Order. You will need to bring witnesses to confirm the annoying aspect of hte noise, and of course a decibel reading would help the court.
