Great Tit nest possibly abandoned...?

We had some Great Tits build a nest in our nestbox recently, however we haven’t seen any activity for over a week now. We’ve had a look inside and there’s only a nest, no birds or eggs. Is it possible that they just abandoned it for no reason?
Also, I don’t know if this would’ve affected it either but we had some work done on our fence opposite the nestbox and was wondering if this could’ve disturbed them? About 3/4 metres away.
