Hi there
I've had an extension built recently and had the walls float and set.
Looking at the walls closely today (soon to fit a kitchen), I've found they aren't particularly straight. For example, from the surface of the work top the wall 'falls away' vertically - about 1 cm over a distance of 60 cm. The walls also 'wave' quite a bit with a 2 or 3 mm deviations here and there.
Am I being fussy, or this acceptable/within reasonable tolerances? My concern is that when I come to fit cupboards and the like it my present a few challenges and affect the quality of the finish/fit.
For what it's worth, I still owe the builder a few grand, so I am in a position to raise the matter and negotiate a solution.
Thanks
