I have a relatively simple problem, but cannot think of a "proper" solution.
Looks like the threaded pipe that sticks out of the wall for the shower fitting is not exactly perpendicular to the wall. Therefore, when I screw in the shower head fitting, there is a large-ish gap between the fitting and the wall, as can be seen in the photos.
I can't think of any way of fixing this besides just living with it. Straightening the pipe from the wall does not seem possible. Luckily the gap faces the adjacent wall so that it is difficult to see.
Anyone have any alternatives?
