Good morning.
We are currently building a prefab house with Allkauf Haus and have the Freetime package.
On Monday, the rough-in plumbing was installed and completed yesterday afternoon.
Unfortunately, all the pipes were laid exactly where a drywall partition for the shower needs to be. I wasn’t allowed to oversee this earlier because the company did not want me to. Someone mentioned that the pipes were incorrectly installed.
Their comment was:
I would also criticize the installation of the wastewater pipe. The 87-degree bends on the floor for the washbasins are completely wrong. This is not standard practice. The reducer for the shower is also installed the wrong way around. Was this done by a professional company? If so, that’s disappointing!
Can anyone confirm these statements? If so, I can address this this afternoon!
Best regards,
Sven

pipes and I have no space for them. The pipes are located exactly at the 1-meter (3.3 feet) boundary, which is also the width of our WEDI panel.
If I move the drywall further to the left next to the pipes, I only have 80cm (31.5 inches) left, which is clearly too little!Then the only option is partial demolition and repositioning of the installation frames by exactly the distance you are missing.
As mentioned before, you also need space to securely fasten the waterproofing frames...

As I already said, you also need room to securely fasten the waterproofing frames… I agree with that.
I told them that from the start… but they thought the wall would fit there without any problems.
