The space where the bath is supposed to fit does not look very big and in truth does not look big enough. Everyone has commented on this including the builder who put the stud work up in the first place. We have usually satisfied ourselves with comments such as :-
"well is just looks deceptive"
"it will look fine when the plaster is on"
"it must be right it has been checked several times"
You can guess what is coming next.
We decided to re-measure the space and it is too small by about 7cm. We either have to buy a 1500mm bath or move the stud work.
The plasterboard is being delivered tomorrow so hopefully the stud work will have been moved by then. it was tempting to switch to a 1500mm bath but I think that 1700mm will make a lot of difference and it is what we wanted.
Large mea culpas all round.

1500mm baths are horrible. Move the wall.
I agree. I hope by now the wall has already been moved.
In truth the smaller bath option was only considered for about 30 seconds (if that).
