Planning main bathroom with pre-wall installation

How far along are they now with the pipe? Is it already there?

How far along are they actually with the pipe? Is it already there?

They actually wanted to install it first because the distance of the toilet depends on the associated pre-wall. I will probably see it tomorrow if I manage to.

It is unfortunately very frustrating when you consider how much work you put into such a project, and just because planners and architects don't feel like it, something like this comes out. Then I also have no desire to invest anything anymore. I just wanted a normal house, that can't be so difficult.

I don't think anyone at the company has ever done anything in 3D CAD.

I thought you were building with a somewhat modern GUI (?)

No, you wanted a highly detailed complex house on the footprint of a small house, that's not the same.

I thought you were building with a reasonably modern general contractor (?)

Until two years ago, the website looked like it was from the 80s. That probably says a lot. No, where other general contractors can show their customers the floor plans in 3D and you can walk around inside the houses, that is unthinkable with our general contractor. The simplest floor plans and views are already the height of their ambitions. It doesn't have to be bad if something reasonable comes out in the end.

But it can't be that hard to simply play through different variants. Does the gas boiler really have to be on the wall in the utility room, where there is then a box in the room on the floor above? Can't the boiler be placed on another wall where the exhaust pipe can be better concealed? These are the kinds of questions that, from my point of view, the planners never asked themselves. Maybe you would have lost space elsewhere, no question, but it certainly would have been less conspicuous. That's what it's about for me. I could have lived with less space in every room on the upper floor. But just to block off one side with windows like that is really dumb.

Yes, that's why I asked how far they already are with the pipe? Maybe it can still be "rerouted" or drilled through the ceiling from below at another spot. Such a hole is not a problem anymore these days. For the planning error, I would put that immediately on the complaint list to the [GU], so that they cover the costs.
