Ask a Trade: Window Specialists

If a window surveyor takes measurements of a window before the brickwork is completed, but the company posts you a picture with the measurements for your builders approval who refuses to do that as he is not an expertise in windows, so you don’t show him the picture measurements, who is to blame if the window is too large and does not fit? If you have paid for installation,. Should the surveyor have taken his own final measurements once the brickwork was finished? Thank you
