I have had a builder move a door opening. See picture 01 on...
Unfortunately the wall is a little wonky. Pic 02 shows how the wall bends. The max gap of this bend is half an inch. This picture was taken with a 2M level resting on the lintel at the top, and the 2nd row of blocks up at the bottom. Picture 03 show how far out of plumb the wall is.
The first three rows of bricks are at least flat to each other if not quite plumb. Placing the level flat on these first 3 rows shows how much the thing bends... Over an inch by the time it reaches the lintel. See photo 04.
I haven't spoken to the boss man yet.. When I discussed it with the "foreman" he said - no problem - will all disappear when it gets plastered. Is that reasonable? Is the plasterer going to agree with that?
Would appreciate comments.
Thanks, Roy
