Hello gents.
If anyone can advise me on this I'd be grateful.
Fitting a new kitchen and will be putting 3 wall units onto what I now know of as a paramount wall. It's plasterboard either side of a cardboard egg box construction.
I've been reading up on here and decided to follow the advice of cutting some plasterboard away to fix a piece of timber to the vertical studs, but I didn't know what the wall type was then and I've created a channel along the wall that only shows one stud. Please see pictures.
What should be my next step in your opinion?
I'm thinking either continue with the adding timber idea and hope the little wooden frame is strong enough, OR rip out the plasterboard to an area of about 2 x 2.5 m and add a board (instead of a baton) thus spreading the load, screwed in more places on the single vertical stud.
All help welcomed! Thanks.
