Hello,
I was working away from home this week and stopped by the construction site briefly this evening.
I couldn’t believe my eyes.
The main contractor installed the interior window sills, but they protrude by at least 10 cm (4 inches), and probably around 8.5 cm (3.3 inches) after plastering.
Isn’t that unusual nowadays?
That was common practice in the past when you needed to hide radiators underneath.
Now all the issues begin, but surely it can’t stay like this, right?
Best regards,
Daniel

Why do people do this without asking?
And now comes the effort—everything has to be taken out again, cut, and put back in.
Who pays for this?

Nothing was agreed upon in that regard.
I was assuming a normal depth of 3-4 cm (1.2-1.6 inches).

About 2 cm (1 inch) past the plaster seems appropriate to me. I could imagine that someone delivered what was ordered, but the window installer positioned it further inward (?)
In any case, I would file a complaint for windows with toggle bolts.

The manager only placed the order after the windows were installed.
I already know the answer.
We always do it this way.
But I’m not mentally at the limit yet, am I?
You agree that it can’t work like this, right?

We always do it that way. You file a complaint. If you only get silly responses, you don’t pay for it. "We always do it that way."

toxicmolotof25 Jan 2018 20:24For us, that was a deliberate choice at that spot. So it fits exactly as it is there.
What does the scope of work say about the window sills?
Even if you don’t like it, this might be a difficult process. Because he has not violated any agreement, and the window sills appear to be uncontested.
Still, I’m keeping my fingers crossed for you.
