Well.

This is a plumbing rough in goof of serious magnitude. or a very large dropped ball.

IF there had to be a change in plumbing rough in?? The TUB needed a change/ new tub/ new order with a flip of that drain to the other end. It didn't happen, obviously

As to "laws"? How would you reach a shower diverter thru or around fixed glass?!

It's the wrong everything........tub/glass/tub fill/diverter etc.

If you want it fixed? It's a rip. Do I think you should pay? No.

Not unless he can prove you were notified. In writing.

IF HE CAN NOT PROVE THAT? Discount my foot.

Yikes. This is wrong on so many levels.

First, how did this bathroom pass the first plumbing inspection before they closed up the walls? Any competent inspector would have seen that the plumbing was not located as drawn on the plans. Second, how did YOU miss this before they closed up the walls?

Regardless, it needs to be fixed. At the very least, the tub needs to be re-installed so the drain is under the shower head and tub filler. If that means re-tiling--oh well. That's on the contractor, IMO.

As it is, anyone sitting in the tub either has the filler sticking them in the back or are sitting on the drain.

Well that is an interesting error (and had to be noticed by multpile trades because it is a blantant mistake). It's on the contractor. Stand your ground.

It's not up to the other trades to notice this, and it is not up to the homeowner. It's also not the inspector's responsibility.

No, it is not functional if you intend to use it as a tub and not just an oversized shower pan, as olychick pointed out. What is that black line and bump-out in the wall on the plan at the drain end?

This doesn't make sense to me: "As it is now, I have to walk into the shower as the door is on the same side as the shower head" You would want the door to open on the valve side, so you wouldn't have to walk around the fixed panel. Maybe they did it to fix that problem, since the toilet would be in way of the door opening if the door were on the other end.

How do they expect you to stand under the shower head with the slope of the tub being there? Big screw up!! It's on them.

It looks like water flowing out of the tub spout will hit the slope and probably splatter a lot. You're also stepping in and out right at the slope which seems like a safety issue. Terrible that the builder is so blasé about his error.

OMG.... sometimes there are no words....

Definitely fight to have this fixed

The original design would only work with a shower curtain. (Which is better for a tub shower anyway.) The whole entire thing needs to be ripped apart. A left handed tub should be installed, and keep the existing supply configuration. Just move the drain and redo all the waterproofing and tile. .

Thank you for all the comments on this. My builder has not responded to this problem yet. I plan to start renting the home come first week of May. This is a vacation rental property with a view of the Gulf of Mexico. If they don't start on this fix soon, it could affect my rental income. So I hope they make this right asap.

Your rental is an accident waiting to happen if your guest steps into that tub with the water running down the sloped side. If you don’t change it, at least replace the glass enclosure with a shower curtain so they have a larger area to enter the tub. I recommend the shower curtain even if you do change out the tub as your guests will not maintain the glass and it will become spotted and etched.
