Jason:
Engineering works take place at many transmitters, some of the work takes place at height near the antennae and so reduced power or use of the reserve antenna is sometimes necessary. This could of course affect your reception, but that will very much depend on location and nearby terrain. Depending on the works needed this could take several weeks or longer.
However,
Firstly check in your TV Tuning section, that you are correctly tuned to Emley Moor's UHF channels. Emley's Multiplexes & UHF channels are as follows, in the order -
PSBs1/BBCA, PSB2/D3&4, PSB3/BBCB HD, COM4/SDN, COM5/ArqA, COM6/ArqB
they are C47, C44, C41, C33, C36, C48 (C means UHF channel).
You could potentially pick up signals from 3 other main transmitters to which you have line-of-sight in your location, aerials can sometimes get signals on their "side-lobes".
For which TV channels are carried on which multiplex, see
Channel listings for Industry Professionals | Freeview
Secondly, you should have received a postcard from Restore TV warning about possible interference from new/upgraded phone masts starting to use the 700MHz band for 4G/5G. There's getting on for a dozen such masts within 1.5km of you.
see https://restoretv.uk/post…ure/
BUT you mention "other residents". Now if you are in a block with a community aerial shared with other residents, then you need to contact the building management/those responsible for the aerial system to get some filters installed (Freeview should have advised you of this).
Otherwise if it's just you and your own aerial, then contact Restore TV for a Free Filter.
Call them on 0808-1313-800 and give them details of your installation, aerial, any pre-amp, amp-splitters etc. The may decide to send an engineer free of charge rather than just send filters.

Jason: As per Chris.SE's comment, a potential possibility other than engineering works is a nearby phone mast. Noting that there are communal residences within your postcode and your reference to 'my residence' which makes me think you might be in a property served by a communal aerial system, then remediation for any mobile interference would rest with the party responsible for the system.
At your location the Belmont transmitter might be available. If it is a communal aerial system then it might be filtered so as to allow through from the aerial only the channels used by the designated transmitter. However, if it is not then it might provide useful reception of Belmont, as a workaround while Emley Moor is inadequate.
Try a manual scan on UHF channels 22 and 25, which are Belmont PSB1 / BBC A (BBC standard definition TV) and PSB2 / D3&4 (ITV1, Channel 4, Channel 5 and other sister channels) respectively. The HD multiplex from Belmont is on C28, so try a scan of that too if your TV has a HD tuner.
Also, look in the logical channel numbers 800 upwards to see if there is BBC One Yk&Li. If it is present, this will be BBC One from Belmont. See what reception is like from Belmont; it might offer a temporary fix.
