Since I'm not familiar with the laws where you live, I don't have specifics, but as someone with a disability, you have rights like anyone else, maybe more so.

You try local tenant-landlord mediators, if you have them there, along with contacting whatever agency oversees rights of tenants in apartments. I say "whatever" since they would have different names in different parts of the country for the most part. I mean government agencies, but also non-profits for the disabled/tenants can help, hopefully.

Landlords always try to get away with stuff because they think people don't know their rights or won't look into them. To them, it's just property and not someone's HOME.

Maybe a letter from your doctor will help about how you can't just go live somewhere else while they do their remodeling.

They should also just work "normal" business hours, not all night long. Is there any neighbor you could hang out with during the day when they are working?

Or a place not too far that you can go to, as an example---a library?

If there's ride services in your area for the disabled to places, maybe you can use them to go somewhere while they are working?

Organizations that assist the disabled should be able to help or point you in the right direction. They are your advocate.

I can't think of much else at this point.
