I think I may have plumbed the walls, the reveal wont notice once the blind is fitted,the blind will hang plumb with gravity and give the straight line you are looking for, just my opinion

That's a really good point Gary one that didn't cross my mind in this instance But the window won't have any dressing as there is a shower going over the bath, the window is far enough back that anybody showering won't be seen from the outside but close enough that it will get wet. The area is going to be tanked and sealed, I am aware that small amounts of water (the window still has a tight seal) will find its way into the jam but I've agreed with the customer that the mechanism will need to be kept greased and drainage holes kept clear - Not ideal but they get everything they wanted in the bathroom

Is this an old property..? if not was the lime plaster used to allow the walls to breath for any reason..?

The house is around 160/170 years old although many people don't know they are that old because the area has seen so many alterations to the buildings. The houses were built to home the workers who built the London to Brighton railway. So considering the houses built on a budget there certainly have stood the test of time! It's a wierd setup, The house (terraced) is set on the side of a very step hill, it has 4 storeys, at the front you can only see 2 at the back 4, so sort of a double basement. The bathroom is either on the ground floor or if you looked from the back 3rd floor:lol:
The house is largely constructed from bungaroosh, I did a lot of work on the house last year and sorted a lot of the damp problems out then but it's one of those buildings that is never going to be completely free of damp unless you undertake some major work. The wall is south facing and i'm quite happy with the ventilation it will recieve

I've voted to make the walls plumb, if it throws the window out of kilter that to me will be a compromise I know, but imo, we should endeavour to make our tiling as plumb and level as possible
