Hello, after the final inspection during the flooring installation, we noticed that the interior wall of the room is 10cm (4 inches) wider on one side than at the other end of the wall. The total length of the wall is 3.54m (11.6 feet). I believe this is definitely beyond acceptable tolerance. Can someone advise what would be a reasonable compensation in this case?
Thank you very much

It’s just annoying when you want to place something squarely into the corner.You wouldn’t even put a side table directly “in the corner.”
And all larger furniture is usually placed about 5-6 cm (2-2.5 inches) away from the wall.
This also applies to a bed, since you want to tuck the sheet in along the edges. Watch out when installing edge protection and wall guards.

This is not uncommon in children's rooms.Then I place the long side against the wall, and the short side of a child’s bed (1m (3 feet 3 inches)) is only 3cm (1.2 inches) away from the wall.

Then have the carpenter come back and ask her to modify the wall. This is a defect, and you must give her the opportunity to make corrections.
By the way, you should NEVER buy furniture based on the rough construction measurements from the plan, but rather on the actual measurements. This is especially important because a few centimeters (inches) can be added for plaster or due to unexpected issues like in your case.

Or am I completely misunderstanding this?Plans show the shell construction. The plaster is not included yet. And there are tolerances for that as well.
Order furniture only after measuring the finished plastered room. Measure at several heights.
Or plan a buffer zone, for example in kitchens there are often finishing strips, which should be wide enough “on paper” to allow them to be narrower to the final measurement after plastering.

Or am I completely wrong? Yes, that’s not the way to do it. RBM does not work, only actual measurements.
