Then live with it... Thank you for the constructive contribution. I, a woman, layperson without hobby handymen in my circle of friends, am moving into a house for the first time. See text.☺️ My question was whether the wall can support a shower enclosure wall or not. Whether it is sufficient or if it will fall over when you lean against it. Yes, it didn't end up being a drywall after all...

Yes, it will hold. I did exactly the same in my apartment 15 years ago (just without a niche). :)

That’s why you get your own (external) expertise for such a project, because you’re not familiar with it. Or you just don’t get any and live with it...

[/QUOTE] I still don't understand how you are answering my own question here. It is a prefabricated house from the developer. We are not building ourselves from scratch.

Correct, but you are buying the house (and land) from the developer. If I had no knowledge of the subject, I would definitely get help who advises me regarding poor performance or defects in the construction work by the developer.

With your questions, you show that you have just as little knowledge about building / the execution of the trades as the average homeowner (or me). Therefore, once again my sincerely well-meant advice: Get external expertise to support you...

Or simply buy in good faith and live with possibly existing defects that are not immediately visible to you during acceptance. I suspect that this option may cost you significantly more nerves and money in the long run. ;)

But at first, it's not bad to fall back on the forum knowledge for a question of this kind... :oops: I didn't find the answer "then live with it and pay your tuition fee" all that helpful either (if there are no foreseeable problems, the questioner might well live with it, but that was exactly the initial question). If it is problematic, you might be able to influence the developer or, yes, you "pay your tuition fee." But yes, in principle, construction supervision probably helps, and you can certainly ask something like that, you are right about that. Otherwise, unfortunately, I can't really contribute to answering the question :confused: (but in such a case, I might also have asked the forum)
