offset connector issue for shower mixer valve

[alanmcm]

Need a bit of advice for installing a shower mixer valve. Issue Im having is that the tiler put the tiles on and the gap has went from 150mm to 135mm. I have 2 copper pipes coming out of the wall and have the mixer valve already measuring 150mm. Ive two offset connectors but not sure how to incorporate them into the pipes. Ive the brass wall mounts I was going to use originally but it doesnt match the offsets I have. Is their other brass wall mounts available or do the offsets need to be sunk into the wall?
Or do I need to get an adjustable shower mixer? Hard to get in black is the problem.

TIA

Simplest thing is to move the pipes back to their original positions and fit the valve as you had originally planned.
Do this by stitch drilling the tiles to allow pipe movement - it’s easier if you can remember where they were initially- did you measure off a window or any fixed point.

The walls are tracked down the way and have been given a bit of space on each side, these have since been filled in and im not sure I want to start digging into the tiles, had to do it for the radiator as it was leaking when re-installed and need to put a new tile on for that as well tomorrow. Im just looking an easy way out with little to no damage.
Should have just hired someone that could tile and plumb at the same time and this wouldnt have been an issue, but getting a trade guy is near on impossible at the minute, always busy.

Is their any other fittings I can attach to the wall or any offset adaptors to close the gap the 15mm needed?

Didn’t you check before it was tiled ?

It was measured correctly and set at 150mm centred. Went away for two weeks on business and came back and it was already completed. Tiler has moved them over slightly to negate the end of the tile on one side to make it easier for him to finish it off.
The tracks in the walls were not filled and the tiler filled them in before tiling

Upto the tiler to correct then at his expense call him back
