....The shower head is 3 inches shorter than it is supposed to be. The
contractor measured from the rough floor and forgot to take into
account the tile height and the cement and tile that was added.

It is at 6' 4" and the one in our downstairs bathroom is 6' 7" which
is a good height for me. I'm 6' 1". 6' 4" is not going to cut if for
me without putting on one of those ridiculous looking extenders which
I am not willing to do.

....He told us he would take care of it but I'd like to get some feedback
here as to what our options are to raise that rough opening height.

The shower is fully tiled now but they didn't do the grout yet.

Since your guy said he would fix it, it should be no problem. And, since
the grout isn't done yet, it should be even easier for him to do it, and it
can be done from the bathroom side.

Is the existing shower head coming out of the wall through the tiles or does
it come out above the top of the tiles?
