When is it a construction defect? A 10 cm wall was incorrectly placed

So some rooms became larger and some smaller as a result? Do the penetrations of the floor slab / ceiling all still fit (waste water pipes; media penetrations)? Is the kitchen still placeable?

The plan was to install a 1.70 m bathtub which unfortunately no longer fits because the door would now hit the bathtub. I am just wondering how I should proceed from here. A 1.60 m bathtub is out of the question for me as it unfortunately doesn’t fit me. My idea was also to install a smaller door. Instead of an 89 cm door, simply install a 78 cm door. The question I ask myself again is whether I can claim anything financially because of the 10 cm.

The room has become 10cm smaller because of this, and I have a larger hallway as a result. Which I never wanted. Since it is a timber frame house, the pipes can still be changed on the upper floor. Unfortunately, in the ground floor they already made a tree-length mistake back then by placing a drain pipe in the middle of the kitchen. But that's another story again.

Possibly to reassure you: Our door (opening angle 90°) also hits the bathtub. We have a 180x80 tub. It doesn’t bother us much ourselves. What bothers me more is the large tub that consumes forever a lot of water so that I usually take a water-saving bath... I wouldn’t put in a smaller door now. Do you have a layout of the bathroom? Maybe the hinge side can be swapped?

Simply a different strike plate for the door? Hard to imagine without a plan.

Most timber frame constructions are quite flexible when it comes to non-load-bearing walls. Without a plan, you really can't say anything about it. What is the manufacturer's proposed solution?
