Tapes arent that accurate anyway and I think are only reasonable good at 20 degrees C. Since most tapes get wear and tear at the ends the best way as the others say is to measure from 100mm mark remembering to adjust for it at the other end. We used to get 15mtr tapes sent for calibration at one point, total waste of time in my opinion.
