Hi,
My builder has poured the foundations and laid 2 layers of concrete block. I have measured it and it is about 7cm short. When i spoke to him he said that they work to the nearest half block to avoid having irregular sized blocks which made it come up a bit short.
Is this correct or is he covering for getting the measurements wrong?
If this is correct it not a massive deal but if he has measured incorrectly and i am being lied to then it. He seems like a good guy and don't want to call him out unnecessarily early in the build.
Thanks of anyone can advise.
